We have a booster meeting tonight at 7 pm in the band room.  If you are a parent of a band parent, we strongly encourage you to come and provide your input.

Friday April 27, 2012

You may have noticed that the calendar is no longer displaying in our website.  The problem is with Google, which hosts the site, and I have been in contact with them regarding a solution.  So far, there has been no solution given to me!  I will work to get it put back as soon as possible, and in the meantime try to provide more dates in these announcements.  

 

---UPDATE--- I'm not sure what I did, but somehow the calendar is working again! 

 

Our Fan Cloth orders are almost all collected and tallied.  THANK YOU to all of you that participated!  We will have the shirts in a few weeks, and will send them home with the students.

Monday April 23, 2012

Congratulations to the HS Concert Band on their EXCELLENT performance on Saturday!  Four judges, and four gold ratings at the highest difficulty level, Group I.  Together with the middle school, this means that Bremen Band program has accomplished a clean sweep in both major contests in northern Indiana while playing at a very advanced level.

 

Today is the due date for our Spirit Wear fund raiser!  Please make sure you return your order forms or check.  All checks should be made out to Bremen Band.

 

---

 

Friday, April 13, 2012

We are halfway through our Spirit Wear sale, and several students have reported selling their minimum of 2 items!  Please remember that it is very important for us to meet our budget that every family does their fair share and sells at least 2 items.  The following link is a copy of a letter sent home with your students today outlining the nature of our expenses and why fund raising is so important.  Did you know the band department costs on average approximately $180 per student to run?  Many band departments charge fees of hundreds of dollars to join band, but we have managed to avoid this through successful fund raising efforts.  Check out the letter for some more eye-opening information!  If your family does not wish to participate in this fund raiser, please send a check to the Bremen Band for $30 to cover your fair share.  Thank you so much for your help in keeping direct fees to band parents to a minimum!

 

Here is the letter sent home today:  Where the Money Goes.pdf

 

Monday, April 9, 2012

Welcome back!  I hope that your students found Spring Break refreshing.

 

Today is the beginning of our Band Spirit Wear fund raiser!  This is our second and final major fund raiser for the band department.  In order for this fund raiser to be successful, each band family needs to sell or purchase at least 2 items.  In addition, every child that sells 20 items will be given a free item.  Just as with the cheese and sausage fund raiser, every class that sells on average 10 items will receive a pizza party.  Your child should be bringing home order forms today.  The clothing is high quality and looks sharp--  let's spread our Bremen Band pride!  

 

Don't forget-- tomorrow night, Tuesday April 10 at 7:00 pm in the Band room is our next Booster meeting!  If you believe in the importance of music education for your child, then you should be here!  Every parent of a band parent past or present is welcome to attend.

 

Friday, March 30, 2012

A few announcements before spring break-- yay for a week off!

 

All Bands will be participating in our second major fund raiser when we back from Spring Break.  We will be selling Band Spirit Wear, and we will be asking each band family to sell or purchase at least 2 items.  The clothing looks great and a portion of every dollar spent will go to the band program.  Every student who sells at least 20 items will get a free item of their choice, and if a class averages 10 items they will be given a pizza party.  This fund raiser is an experiment, and a replacement for our normal annual Fish Fry.

 

Marching Band numbers are in, and it is looking like it will be a great year!  Keep an eye here for schedule information in the next few weeks.  Band Camp will begin on August 1st, and every marching band student not already on vacation will be asked to march in the Fireman's Festival Parade at the end of June.  Any other high school band student interested is welcome to march with us at the parade as well!

 

Jazz Band will be performing with the Swing Choir on May 5th.  We will have two dress rehearsals with them on May 1st and May 3rd.  Please keep these dates clear for these very important rehearsals.

 

HS Band Chicago trip money is due today by 4 pm.  I will be making reservations based on these numbers over the next few days.  This trip will include the Chicago Symphony, Ed Debevic's, the top of the Sears Tower, a performance at 6 flags along with a ticket for the rest of the day there, and a performance by the Blue Man Group.  Don't let your child miss this opportunity!  Applications and deposit are due today, and if you need another application you can print it out here.

Tonight is the MS/HS Pep band performance at the Triton/Bremen HS Basketball game!  All HS students and 8th graders are required to attend, and it is optional for the 7th grade band students.  Students will meet at 5 pm in their pep band / concert shirts (no specific requirements for pants) for a rehearsal, followed by a performance in the gym.  We will begin performing immediately after the end of the JV game, which begins at 6:00 pm.  MS students are asked to stay until halftime of the Varsity game, and are welcome to stay with the HS students to the end if they wish.  We will be playing a large variety of exciting pep band music, and this should be a wonderful musical experience for all of the students.

Please remember that your permission slips for our field trip to Blast! are due by Friday, January 27, 2012.

 

---

 

Thursday, January 19, 2012

The following is a copy of the letter sent home with all band students today.  Please return the permission slip by Friday, January 27, 2012.

 

Good morning, band parents and students!  I write to you today to inform you of a special opportunity for you and your students to see the Emmy and Tony award winning show, “Blast!”  This is an excellent chance for students to see exciting, breathtaking instrumental music performed in a way that they will never forget!

 

Our band program will be going on a field trip to see this show at the Morris Performing Arts center at 8:00 pm Tuesday February 14, 2012.  Our bus will be departing from the Bremen Auditorium at 6:30 pm and we should return by approximately 10:30 pm.  Our group priced, discount tickets for this show will be $25 per person and must be paid by Friday, January 27^th.

 

Here is a description of the show from the theater website:

 

“BLAST!, winner of the 2001 Tony Award for “Best Special Theatrical Event” and the 2001 Emmy Award for “Best Choreography,” is comprised of 35 brass, percussion and visual performers brought together in a unique explosion of music and theatre. Born on athletic fields across the nation, BLAST! is a novel art form evolved from the showmanship of outdoor pageantry. According to Bruce McCabe of the Boston Globe: “Blast! is an exuberant 15-number show that doesn't falter while bridging the categories of classical, blues, jazz, rock n roll, and techno-pop music. BLAST! stands, blows, pounds, marches, and whirls with panache. It sent a full house into repeated bursts of cheering and applause.”

 

In addition to band students, all parents and siblings are encouraged to come. 

 

Please fill out the form below and return with the necessary payment by Friday, January 27^th.

 

Sincerely,

 

Matthew Sutton, Director of Bands

Bremen Public Schools

Sunday, January 1, 2012

Happy New Year!  I hope this year your dreams are fulfilled.  This year, I am thankful for the opportunity to work with your child.  Music is an irreplaceable part of our culture, and music education programs help to keep that culture alive.  Thank you for allowing your child the chance to be a part of this program, and thank you for your support through these last several years.

 

Now, for a few announcements:

 

1. We have a booster meeting Tuesday, January 3 at 7:00 pm.  All parents are encouraged to attend!  We would love to see some new faces, and this is your chance to have input into the direction of the band program.  If you are a band parent, then you are a part of the booster program.
2. Families with school owned instruments need to make sure they are up to date on their instrument fees.  If you have not done so, please make sure you send your payment for the 2nd quarter / trimester with your child when they return to school.  Invoices will be sent out as reminders in the first two weeks since school got back. 

 

Wednesday, December 14, 2011

This is just a quick reminder of what has already been announced:  solos for the Solo / Ensemble Competition should have their accompanists by Friday!  If there is a question mark under accompanists next to your child's name at Solo Ensemble Piece Assignments , then I have not yet been told who their accompanist is.

Solo Ensemble-- the next step

Most of the students have received their solos and ensembles-- now what happens?

 

1. Students playing solos need to find and secure a pianist to play for them on February 11th. 
1. If your student has a "?" in the "Accompanist" column of the table in Solo Ensemble Piece Assignments , then he or she has not yet told me who will be their pianist.
2. The following pianists have already indicated they would be willing to perform for fees negotiated by them:
1. Bethany Muck (618-910-1431, or bethany.muck@gmail.com) 
2. Louise Keck (574-209-0422, or lkeck@bps.k12.in.us) 
3. You are welcome to use your own family or friend as a pianist.
4. I am playing for several students who are trying to qualify for the state competition.  I cannot take any more.
5. Please arrange for a pianist and let me know who it is before Christmas break. 
2. Students playing solos or ensembles may sign up for times to work with Mr. Sutton before or after school by putting their names on the sheet posted outside the band office door.
1. There are not enough slots for everyone-- first come first serve!
2. A student or group should only sign up for one slot at a time.  
3. Students should be careful to show up at their assigned time.  Students who sign up and then do not show up use up a time slot that other students could have used. 
4. You can see available times to sign up by clicking here: After School Solo Ensemble Scheduling Sheet.pdf .  This can also be found on the sidebar to the right at any time. 
3. Students should practice their solos and ensembles on their own every day!  The goal should be to be able to play their pieces with correct rhythms, notes, and expression three weeks before the contest.
4. In January, we will be making arrangements for students to ride the bus or go with their parents to Kokomo.  Performances are open to the public and parents are encouraged to come, but buses will be provided for those students whose parents cannot.

Notre Dame Hockey Concession Stand

First, I would like to thank everyone who has volunteered to help with the Notre Dame Hockey Game Concessions so far.  By doing these games we are able to easily raise much needed funds to help to run the Bremen Band Program in an efficent and cost effective manner.  I appreciate the hard work of every person who has donated their time so far.

 

Tomorrow we are signed up to run the concession stand again, and unfortunately we are short much needed help.  We need at least 5 more people to help run the concession stand tomorrow evening.  If you can help, please send an email to msutton@bps.k12.in.us as soon as possible, or call the band department at 574-546-3511 x3368 and offer your time.  If you leave a message, be sure to leave your name, phone number, and your email address if you have one.

 

The Need:  5 people 16 years old or older

The Date:  Tomorrow at 5:30 pm!  We will meet outside the school auditorium at 4:30 pm to carpool / caravan up to the stadium.

The Game:  The game will begin at 7:30 pm, and we will keep the stand open until it is over.  Afterwards, we will need to clean up and do an inventory count.

The Clothing:  You will need to wear black pants (not jeans) and a short sleeved white shirt or long sleeved black shirt.  Notre Dame will provide a pullover shirt and visor to wear on site.

 

With a little over 24 hours until the game and still having a shortage of help, I am not quite begging yet.  Not quite.... ok maybe a little.  Please consider donating this time to help the band program meet its financial needs.

Solo/Ensemble Contest

Good morning!  It is once again time to begin the process of signing up students for the Indiana State School Music Association's Solo/Ensemble contest in January.  Each year thousands of students from all over the state perform solo and ensemble pieces for judges and receive awards on February 11.  The best of these students move on to a state level performance in Indianapolis on February 25th.  Last year over 120 students from Bremen participated in this important event.  Being judged individually and as small groups is a wonderful tool for developing independant musicianship within students, and as such we encourage every student in the band department to participate.

 

Here's what you need to know:

 

Where: Kokomo High School.  Buses will be provided for students that need it.

When: February 11th, 2012

Who: All students enrolled in the 7th-12th grade band program are expected to sign up.  Students who cannot perform on that date (because of athletic or other conflicts) will be required to prepare and perform a piece for the class on the Friday before.  6th grade students may perform as well; this is an optional activity for them.

What: Students may sign up to perform a solo, an ensemble, or both. 

Cost: ISSMA charges small fees to cover the cost of hiring judges and other expenses.  The cost is $6 for each ensemble entry, and $12 for each solo entry.

Sign Up Information:  Today students will receive small sign up forms in class.  These forms will be due back to the band room by December 1st, 2011.  Please turn in your fees with your form.  Checks should be made out to Bremen Band.  If a student wishes to do more than one performance (such as a solo and an ensemble), he or she should fill out a separate entry form for each performance.

 

If you wish to know if your child has signed up, or the status of his or her solo / ensemble piece, please go to Solo Ensemble Piece Assignments .  You can also find a link to this page if you scroll down the Navigator window on the right.

 

As always, if you have any questions not answered here, please don't hesitate to email Mr. Sutton at msutton@bps.k12.in.us.

Friday, November 11, 2011

The Band Program is in need of a few more volunteers to help run the concession stand at the Notre Dame Hockey Game on Tuesday, November 15th. 

 

Volunteers will meet outside the auditorium of Bremen High School at 4:00 pm to caravan or carpool up to the stadium.  The game will finish around 10:00 pm, and we will have to clean up the stand afterwards.  Volunteers need to wear black pants (not jeans), and either a long sleeved black shirt or a short sleeved white shirt.  Notre Dame will provide a shirt and visor to wear over your clothes.  Volunteers must be 16 years old or older to participate.

 

This is fast paced work in an exciting atmosphere, and your help will benefit the band program here at the school.  We are running out of time to find people, so we need your help!  Please email msutton@bps.k12.in.us if you can help.

Notre Dame Hockey Concession Stand Help

We are still in need of volunteers this Friday for the Notre Dame Hockey Concession Stand.  We are running out of time!  If you have not yet done so, please volunteer to help us Friday evening at 5:00 pm.  To volunteer, simply email me at msutton@bps.k12.in.us and let me know you are available.  The game will begin at 7:00 pm, and the concession stand will remain open until the end of the game and clean up afterwards.  Volunteers will need to wear long black pants (not jeans), comfortable shoes (no flip flops or sandles), and either a short sleeve white shirt or a long sleeve black shirt.  Notre Dame will provide a visor and a polo shirt to wear during the game and over your shirt.  Students who wish to help must be 16 years old or older.

 

Fall Concert

Our first major concert of the year is tomorrow night!  This is a wonderful time when we first get to see the results of the students' hard work over the last several weeks since the beginning of the school year.  Students should be in the band room at 6:30 pm Tuesday, November 8th, and the concert will begin in the Bowen auditorium at 7:30 pm.    Please look at your handbook for proper dress requirements.  If you need it, an online copy of your handbook can be found here:

 

High School Handbook

Middle School Handbook 

 

As these are performance based classes and this is a major performance, attendance is required.  If you have questions about our attendance policy, you can always find answers in your handbook as well.

 

Port-A-Pit Chicken Sale

The Port-A-Pit Chicken sale on Saturday went very well!  We sold all of our chickens, and we made approximately $811 in profit.  Thank you to every person and student who helped make this a success.

Happy Halloween!

 

Cheese and Sausage money is due back by tomorrow.  Reported missing items will be delivered as soon as we receive them.  You do not have to collect money for items not yet received.  Checks should be made out to Bremen Band.  Thank you for your help!

 

We have a Band Booster Meeting.  Tomorrow night, November 1st, at 7:00 pm.  Every parent of a band student is encouraged to come, and I hope to see you there! 

 

We are still in need of volunteers for our Port-A-Pit Chicken sale on November 5th.  Please email msutton@bps.k12.in.us as soon as possible if you can help.  Here are the shifts and locations available:

• Marathon Station, corner of Grape and Edison Road
• Noon - 2:30 pm
• Woodies Parking Lot
•  10:00 - Noon
• Noon - 2:30 pm

 

All Port-A-Pit presale chicken tickets are due at the Band office by Friday, November 4th.

 

Our first concert of the year is rapidly approaching!  This concert will be held next Tuesday, November 8th at 7:30 pm in the Bowen Auditorium.  Students will need to be in the band room dressed appropriately by 6:30 pm.  Please refer to your student handbook for proper dress requirements; you can find a link to your handbook on the right side of this page if you no longer have yours at home.  MS band shirts have not yet arrived for those that have ordered, but they will be handed out as soon as they do.  Because this is a performance based class, attendance at the concert is required by all students and is a significant part of their grade.  Please review the attendance policies in your handbook if you have further questions on this subject.

 

We are also in need of volunteers for the Notre Dame hockey game concession stands.  After our first time doing it, we believe we would be better off with 12 volunteers per evening.  There are still many slots available, and even more band parents that have not yet signed up.  Please sign up for a single night of work to help us meet our budget for the band program by emailing msutton@bps.k12.in.us.  Here are the dates and times that still need help:

1. 5:30 pm Friday, October 21--- FINISHED:  great job volunteers!
2. 5:00 pm Friday, November 11
3. 5:00 pm Tuesday, November 15--- FILLED UP.  We need no more volunteers for this date.
4. 5:30 pm Friday, November 18

Thursday, October 27th, 2011

Cheese and Sausage products have all been handed out to the students, and all money is due back to the band program by Tuesday, November 1st.  Here are a few things you need to know:

 

• Checks should be made out to "Bremen Band." 
• Products not initially received will be handed out as soon as the band receives them; you do not need to collect the money from your customers for these items until they arrive, and they will not likely arrive before Tuesday.
• All Prizes will be handed out after all money has been collected.
