Weekly Update (8/26- 8/30)

This is your weekly MUSIC DEPARTMENT update!

Hello Folks!


You made it through your first home football game! Yes!


Now, hopefully, you see the point of everything we're doing and all the roadblocks you'll run into in a public performance. But even if you don't we will start Tuesday by reviewing footage so we can be more aware of ways we can improve.


Our focus this week is primarily going to be on getting Movement 3 on the field. After some thought, I think our goal will be to add the third movement to perform on Friday. Like I'm sure you are, I want to clean everything very badly, but I'd like to get our entire show on the field first so that we at least have drill setting out of the way. That said, there is plenty you can clean on your own. The big conversation we've been having and will continue to have going into this week will have to do with how we need to do better about applying the lessons we learn in fundamental time to the performance material. Let's keep pushing!
