Trunk-r-Treat
Trunk-r-Treat is an annual tradition with the Winter Park Marching Band where students are encouraged to dress up in costumes for the rehearsal, and parents distribute candy out of the trunks of their cars following that rehearsal. This year's Trunk-r-Treat will take place following rehearsal tomorrow, Monday, October 30.
Solo & Ensemble MPA Registration
Registration for the 2018 Solo & Ensemble MPA is now open! Registration will be done through a Google Form found HERE. All events require a separate registration, and all registrations are due by Wednesday, November 15. Any Guard students or those wishing to enter a jazz combo should speak to Mr. Clemente directly before the November 15 deadline.
Remember that all Band students are required to prepare either a solo and/or ensemble, although they are not required to do S&E MPA. Those students who choose to not do MPA should prepare a solo and/or ensemble (following the same requirements as those doing MPA) and sign-up for the S&E Recitals the week of February 5, 2018.
As has been done for the past few years, solo & ensemble music can be purchased through the Band Program if requested by Wednesday, December 6. To request a specific piece of music, complete the Google Form found HERE.
In addition, Beethoven & Co. will be holding two music perusal nights in Orange County in November. The first is at Lake Nona High School on Thursday, November 16 from 4 PM - 8 PM, and the second is at Apopka High School on Monday, November 27 from 3 PM - 6 PM. In both cases, you will be able to "bill" any music selected to the Winter Park Band account that night and take the music with you. Just make sure that you have your student picture ID to prove that you're from Winter Park High School.
