The First Concert!

First concert is Thursday, Oct. 3, at 7 PM! 

This is a required, graded assignment for all MNHS Orchestra students. 

Attention Students:
All Symphony Orchestra students (from 1st, 2nd, and 6th hours) are to report to the auditorium Thurs, Oct. 3rd, during 2nd hour for our only rehearsal as a full ensemble.

Orchestra students report at 6:30 PM for warm-ups; concert should conclude by 8:15 PM. 

We do have a concert attire dress code – long-sleeved black dress shirt, black dress slacks, black dress shoes, black dress socks that go to mid-calf.  More detailed guidelines may be found in the orchestra handbook.  (Students, remember to turn in your concert attire photo in Google Classroom.)

MNOrch concerts are a good time!  Please plan to attend, and invite your neighbors, friends and family as well!  Our kids do great work – it will be an evening to remember!  Plus, we all bring refreshments for after the concert (please sign up to bring refreshments!

We have our concerts recorded by a professional videographer, who also provides a livestream on YouTube, so friends and family can watch from wherever they may be!  The YouTube link is only distributed via email from Mrs. Martinez.

Please advertise our concert on social media! I’ve created a graphic (attached) if you’d like to use it.
