The St. Veronica Advanced Band is a
group of 5-8 grade students who have had at least one year experience on their
instrument. They rehearse every Tuesday after school from 3:15-4:30 PM to
better their understanding of their instrument and further their skills as a
musician. They hold two school concerts (Christmas & Spring) and perform at
other events throughout the year.
-Advanced Band will rehearse on Tuesdays
from 3:20 P.M. – 4:30 P.M.
-If the school is closed or canceled on
any rehearsal day, there will be no Advanced Band rehearsal that day.
-Band Fees are $55/quarter. Pleasebe
sure to turn these in on time.
Last year, the Advanced Band marched and performed in the Reds Opening Day
Parade. It was a terrific experience!
Congratulations to six St. Veronica musicians who performed in the Ohio Music
Educators Association Solo/Ensemble Competition April 18, 2009 at Madeira
Middle School. Kaitlyn Schaefer (voice) and Heather Witherby (flute) earned
the rating of a II or "excellent" - the second highest rating given - on their
individual pieces. Peter Garvin (trumpet), Olivia Jaspers (voice), Drew
Timmons (tuba), and Kelsey Vincent (voice) all earned the rating of a I or
"Superier" - the highest rating given - on their songs. These six students
worked on their song for months, and their hard work paid off, giving
St.Veronica School the highest ratings we've ever received!
