Instrumental Update

Dear Instrumental Music Community,


This week we are looking forward to traveling to Peoria for the IMEA All State Festival. Congratulations once again to Molly Chaney, Kevin Dinh, Dovas Lietuvninkas, Sarah Otmanski, Kyle Perfect, James Wang, Andrew Payton, and Trent Baer who will be representing RB at the festival, as well as Mrs. Marelli who will be leading the Female Sectional for the All State Honors Choir.

The Jazz Ensemble is very excited to host two professional big bands on February 3rd, at 7:00 PM in the Auditorium. Come out to cheer on the Jazz Ensemble as they open the evening and then stay to hear the pro bands musically “duke” it out. General admission tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students with I.D.

Congratulations to Andre Payton who just bought a professional C Tuba. He’s very happy to be playing such a nice tuba!

Also Congratulations to Christine Dinh, Kristen Santoro, and Eileena Giurini who were selected to perform the National Anthem at the Gymnastics Conference on Saturday January 29th.

Musically yours,

Mr. Baum and Mr. McOlgan
