1 HHS MARCHING BAND & COLORGUARD Season Parent Meeting

2 WELCOME Welcome to our family. We are glad you have elected to be a part of the Highland High School Marching Band and Colorguard. Here at Highland High School we train the best musicians to perform at their best. The success of this program centers on pride, commitment, and the willingness to work hard to achieve our goals and objectives. With your hard work we can continue the legacy of our band being one of the finest marching bands in California.

4 WHAT IS 7 TH PERIOD BAND? 1 st Semester Marching Band The Marching Band consists of the wind instruments, drumline, keyboards and colorguard performing as one unit. This unit performs a field show at home football games and field competitions. The main part of the marching season is the field show tournaments. This group requires a fee to purchase equipment not supplied by the school. ColorGuard During the fall semester, the Colorguard participates with the band at all performances. They perform routines that include spinning flags, rifles and sabers while performing a choreographed routine - all elements that will enhance the overall effect of the field show. Their schedule usually matches the Marching Band schedule but will include additional practices. To be a member of the Colorguard a student must audition for a place in the group. Colorguard members must be enrolled in Marching Band in the fall semester.

5 WHAT IS 7 TH PERIOD BAND? 2 nd Semester Wind Ensemble Wind Ensemble where each student learns to play more musically and with more maturity. Without a concert experience, a student does not have the opportunity to increase his/her skill and knowledge of his/her instrument. Indoor Winds This is a brand-new addition to our existing ensembles. The Indoor Winds group consists of wind instruments, percussion and may include some colorguard members performing indoors during the spring semester on a basketball court and competes against other schools throughout the state. To be a member of the indoor winds, a student must audition for a place in the ensemble. This is a volunteer group of elite musicians that meets in the evening during the week. The rehearsal schedule will be determined by the staff. There will be an additional cost for participants.

6 2 ND SEMESTER Extra Curricular Indoor Percussion AKA WinterLine - Indoor Percussion is a marching percussion and keyboard group which performs on a basketball court and competes against other schools throughout the state in the spring semester. To be a member of the Indoor Percussion Ensemble a student must audition for a place in the group. This is a volunteer group of elite musicians that meets in the evening during the week. The rehearsal schedule will be determined by the percussion staff. There will be an additional TBD cost for participants. This is a nonenrolled group and there will be no school credit. IndoorGuard AKA WinterGuard - During the spring semester, the Colorguard is known as the Winterguard. This group performs a choreographed routine to recorded music on a basketball court and competes with other schools throughout the state. The rehearsal and competition schedule will be determined by the band director and the guard instructor. There will be an additional fee for participants.

16 CLOSING THOUGHTS FROM MR. MAC As a member of this organization you will make long-lasting friendships and develop a sense of camaraderie that is unique to our program. As the director I expect each student to develop shortterm and long-term goals for his/her musical and equipment skill development. I also expect that each student who commits to this program will accept the responsibility to perform to the best of their ability and help others achieve this goal. Through this development the following will be the result: Attitude: Confidence in one s own potential Desire to improve one s competence, skill and knowledge Desire to perform for an audience Loyalty to the Highland High School Marching Band Appreciation: Discrimination of different styles and idioms of music Sensitivity to skilled and tasteful performance in music Preference for listening to quality music Appreciation and respect for other members in the group Habits: Performing with proper posture and technique Performing with expressive elements, articulation and dynamics Daily practice outside of regularly scheduled rehearsals Acceptance of responsibility for one s own actions
