Fairbanks Music Department’s Annual

FYC & FHSCC: Please arrive by 6:30pm in the HS band room to warm up. We will warm up in the HS band room.  Band members follow Mr. Keller’s instructions here. 

5th gr. FYC/band members: Once you are finished performing please return to the band room to get in the concert line up. 

6th gr. band members: give your music and instrument to someone to take care while you join us on the risers. If you need someone to get your minion hat, please arrange that. 

FHSCC: We will continue to warm during the 5th and 6th gr. band performances. Please file into the gym to listen to the youth choir.  We will run through pieces during JH Concert band’s performance.

Concert Attire for CHOIR members:
FYC members: black pants/skirt and youth choir t-shirt.

FHSCC: gentlemen are to wear black pants, black socks, black shoes, long sleeved white dress shirt and tie. Ladies are to wear all black (black pants or black skirt, and black shirt, black shoes). Ladies- if you choose to wear a skirt, please be mindful that it is long enough and that you wear some sort of hose/stocking with it. 

Please look your best!

• The side door (by the band room) is the entrance for performing groups only.  All audience members and should enter through the back doors by the cafeteria.

• If you are on teardown crew, please be stay and help fold chairs and move equipment.  Bonus points are available.

• It is asked that all performers stay for the entire concert.  It is only polite and good concert manners.  This is more than just a performing opportunity – it is also a LISTENING and LEARNING opportunity! I understand if your child needs to leave for a pre-existing conflict such as baseball, softball, 4H, Boy/Girl scouts, Washington DC, dance, etc.  If you have no other meetings or practices, I would like that band members stay for the entire concert.

• All band and choir members must sit with their family when not performing.  We have had problems with misbehavior when students sit together in the reserved section. This helps everyone enjoy the concert to the fullest.
