This Week in the Mighty Black & Gold

Hello All,

I want to be gin by saying outstanding job to the Blackwater Beats Jazz Band for the their performance at the Jazz MPA at Washington HS this past Friday! We earned an overall Excellent, however, after seeing the standing ovation after we were done and hearing the comments from several band directors and audience members in the room, we know it was a superior performance.  Regardless, these students brought the house down!

Now we enter our third an final week of MPA season with concert MPA this Thursday at Ft. Walton Beach HS.  Students, make sure you have made arrangements to be at your rehearsal for the full time.  Just like in marching season, any absences from these last rehearsals will impede your participation in Thursday's performances.  Parents, if you would like to volunteer to chaperone this Thursday, please CLICK HERE.  The itinerary is below.  Students will need to wear their concert black uniforms and bring money for dinner at the various fast food restaurants at Uptown Station in Ft. Walton Beach.   Parents and guard, I encourage all of you to come out and listen and support these groups! Admission is FREE and these students have been working hard up to this point!

Both of our winterguards will be in performance this Saturday at the Pace Indoor Competition.  The JV performs at 5:40 and the Varsity performs at 6:09.  Admission is $10.00 at the gate.  If you haven't seen theme yet, come on out! These students have been working extremely hard and have improved so much over these last few months.  

The Crawfish Festival is coming up quickly and we are in desperate need of more vendors.  I have attached the Vendor application for you to use for whomever.   Please get the word out.  This has become a huge event for the BPA which intern supports our students.  You can also direct folks to our website by clicking HERE.  The festival is April, 21st 10am-8pm.  The entertainment lineup so far is the Blackwater Beats Jazz Band, Chasing Fridays and the Rowdies.  We will have a poster soon.  

That is all for now.  I hope you have a Superior week ;-)

0 Comments

 
Students,

Tomorrow begins the first round of registration for classes for the 2018-19 school year.  For those that are looking to go into music as a career or if you are just wanting another music class, I highly encourage you to consider taking MUSIC THEORY 1. This is a full year class in which you will learn the intricacies of why music is written the way it is written and how to create these pieces.  You must be a member of the band or chorus program at Milton High School as a prerequisite to be in this class.  The full description can be found by CLICKING HERE Fine Arts Curriculum Guide.  We are hoping to actually offer this next year, but we need the numbers to have the class.
