Elementary Music Festival

 

The Tangipahoa Association of Music Educators will be hosting its first Elementary Music Festival on April 21, 2010 in the Ponchatoula High School Auditorium from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. 

 

Each music teacher is asked to bring a group to perform 2-3 numbers with a maximum of ten minutes stage time (including transition time).  All attending students will watch the performances of all other schools.  The Master of Ceremonies (to be announced) will provide enrichment activities during transitions.

 

Teachers should submit via email the following:

 

  • Teacher Name
  • School Name
  • Name of performing group, if applicable
  • Number of Students
  • Grade Level(s) of Students
  • Selections to be performed including

o     title

o     composer/arranger

o     source (such as Music K-8 vol. 18 no. 1)

o     soloists

o     instrumental components (Orff, recorders, Boomwhackers™, etc).

  • Estimated time of performance
  • Any staging requirements
  • Any sound requirements (microphones, CD’s, etc)

 

Teacher should use this form to submit the information.  Open the file, type in your information, save the file as your last name (followed by a number if submitting more than one), and email the file to gwyn.rollins@tangischools.org. My example is here.

 

Teacher submissions should be made by the deadline, March 19, 2010.  They should be emailed to the entire list of elementary music teachers. 

 

Teachers should avoid performing selections already submitted by another teacher.  A Master Program can be found here listing all the selections that have been submitted in the order in which they were received.  **NOTE** this will not be the performance order.
