THE LOS OSOS BAND & COLOR GUARD “WEEKLY” For February 16 - 22, 2015 “Success is the peace of mind that is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best you are capable of becoming” – Coach John Wooden General Announcements: INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC LESSONS – We cannot possibly overstate the value of a band student taking private lessons on his/her instrument. Aside from daily individual practice, obviously, there really is no other single way for a musician to improve their skills than to take individual lessons with a professional. These can be a simple half-hour a week, or an hour twice a month or (ideally) an hour a week. The band experience is a full group experience and does not contribute to individual growth of each player nearly as fast as private lessons can. Our master classes are like a group lesson, but individuals gain more from one-on-one attention. “Do you take private lessons on your instrument?” is one of the very first questions we ask students in any of our auditions; followed by, “How often?” and “With whom?” The following is a list of program-approved lessons teachers. Certainly there are other teachers in our area and many are fine people and well-qualified. THESE folks however have our highest endorsement. We will continue to add to and amend this list as best we can. GO FOR IT!

Jazz Band students, please make a note of the change, again. FYI, this was not changed by us… Thanks for your flexibility! 2015 REGIMENT CAMP DATES – Are now posted in the “Schedule of Events” area below. Please take note of these important dates as you begin to plan summer vacations. Only students who are able to commit to attending our camp in its entirety will be permitted at be a part of the 2015 Regiment. HONOR BAND OPPORTUNITIES – Participation in an honor band provides a challenging, musically-rewarding opportunity for students and helps them to advance their musical knowledge and understanding beyond simply playing in their own high school groups. Honor group participation also looks great on college and university applications. Honor groups are “extra,” meaning that they are in addition to your first commitment, which is to your own program here at Los Osos. Dr. Andress does grant some schedule exceptions to honor band students when overlaps occur, but as always it is the student’s responsibility to work this out in advance. We encourage all of our band students to seek out an honor band experience this school year. The following opportunities are currently available: (Additional honor band opportunities will be listed here soon!) COLLEGE BAND AUDITIONS & SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES – We encourage all of our Los Osos musicans to consider playing in college band, whether or not they plan to be music majors. College bands provide an excellent opportunity to meet other students from across the campus and from different majors. Different colleges offer different scholarship opportunities for incoming students, both music majors and non-majors. We encourage our seniors to research the music opportunities at the colleges of their choice and to continue furthering their musical experience! While our program does not endorse one college music program over another, we occasionally receive college band audition materials in the mail and offer this information to our students. The following college programs have sent us this information: Azusa Pacific University www.apu.edu/cma Audition dates: 2/6/15, 2/21/15, 3/27/15 Cal State Los Angeles Audition date: 3/7/15 www.calstatela.edu/mtd Pacific Lutheran University www.plu.edu/music Audition dates: 2/20/15, 2/21/15, 2/22/15 San Jose State University www.sjsu.edu/musicanddance Audition dates: 2/14/15, 2/28/15, 3/7/15 Sonoma State University www.sonoma.edu/music Audition dates: 11/8/14, 1/17/15, 3/28/15 Texas Christian University www.music.tcu.edu Audition dates: 1/31/15, 2/21/15, 2/28/15 The University of LaVerne www.laverne.edu/performance The University of Redlands www.redlands.edu/music Audition dates: 1/17/15, 2/7/15, 3/7/15 University of the Pacific www.go.pacific.edu/audition Audition dates: 1/24/15, 2/7/15, 2/14/15 N.H.S.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact Deb Baker at bakers.dozen.rc@verizon.net As always, donations can still be sent into the Band Hall and placed in the Band Box. Thank you for all your support! DONATIONS NEEDED – The band and color guard program is in immediate need of donations of the following items. The school budget does not provide for these items. If each student could commit to bring even one item throughout the semester, it would be greatly appreciated, and will help preserve our precious budget money for more urgent issues like instrument repair. Thanks so much to those who have already donated! 1) Paper towels and silver polish. 2) AAA & 9 volt batteries for our instrument tuners and metronomes. MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 2015 No classes or rehearsals today at Los Osos per the Presidents’ Day holiday. AS A REMINDER – 1) Success doesn’t come easily. 2) People work hard to earn success; it’s a part of life. 3) If you want something, you need to work to earn it. 4) You are not entitled to things you haven’t earned. 5) Practice compassion for others: think about third world problems, then put perspective on your first world ones. 6) Responsibility for actions: there are consequences and rewards for our behavior and choices. EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITY (for all students) – Attend the Chaffey/Ontario Community Showband concert tonight at 7:30pm in the Gardiner W. Spring Auditorium on the campus of Chaffey High School (1245 North Euclid Avenue, Ontario, CA 91762) and submit a conductor-autographed concert program (also bearing your printed name) to the Band Box tomorrow to earn ten (10) extra credit points for this current spring semester. If you go, please dress appropriately and serve as an exemplary audience member (no cell phones, no talking, etc.). Tonight’s concert is FREE! TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2015 Zero period Concert Band and Wind Ensemble rehearsals in the Band Hall and Theatre, Winter Guards in the Cafeteria or Gym. Los Osos is on an altered bell schedule today per the “Winter Bash” rally. ASSIGNMENT (for all brass and woodwinds in all band classes) – Reed/slide check today for 25 points. Woodwinds will have five (5) good-quality reeds on their stand for inspection. These reeds need to be out of the wrappers and should be rotated each day so that each woodwind student has a minimum of five (5) working reeds at any good time. Brass players will be expected to completely disassemble and reassemble their horns (all slides and valves out and back in) in a reasonable timeframe. This demonstrates that all slides and valves are in good working order and can be manipulated for proper intonation. YEARBOOK PICTURES – Today during 3rd period Symphonic Band rehearsal and at the evening rehearsal for Concert Band and Wind Ensemble. Symphonic Band students, bring your full concert attire to school today. You will have some time at the beginning of class to change into your nice clothes and we will shoot the picture, then you can change back to school clothes. Concert Band and Wind Ensemble students, arrive to tonight’s evening rehearsal fully dressed in concert attire. Bring a change of clothes if you wish, or remain in the concert attire for the rehearsal. Students are expected to be dressed in the full concert attire, including the proper socks and shoes and ties, etc. Students dressed in appropriately or missing any portion of their attire will have their participation grade lowered and will not be permitted to be in the yearbook photo. Please plan ahead! The music theory worksheet that is distributed today in periods 3 & 4 is due to the Band Box tomorrow at the beginning of those classes. Please follow the instructions carefully and ensure that your first/last name is on both sides of the paper. Study Hall today from 3:15-5:30pm inside the Band Hall. This time is designed for those students who are staying on campus between the end of school and the start of the evening rehearsals. Tables and chairs are set-up in the Band Hall for students to do their homework and the room is kept quiet during that time. The evening rehearsal schedule for tonight is as follows: Concert Band = 6:00-8:00pm @ LOHS Band Hall (Percussion Section #2) Wind Ensemble = 6:00-8:00pm @ LOHS Band Hall (Percussion Section #1) Percussion #3 = 6:00-8:00pm @ LOHS Ensemble Room with Pete & Solomon J.V. Winter Guard = 4:00-7:00pm @ Vineyard Junior High School Gym Varsity Guard = 5:00-9:00pm @ Vineyard Junior High School Gym Just as Tuesday evening rehearsals were “open” rehearsals for the Regiment, Tuesday evening Winter Guard, Concert Band and Wind Ensemble rehearsals are “open” rehearsals for parent/guardians, provided that they respect the work environment and are not disruptive to the rehearsal process. Please grab a chair in the back of the room if you wish. Come join us and watch us learn! We want to extend a HUGE thanks to Eric Evans and Vineyard Junior High School for making the arrangements for our winter guards to use the Vineyard Gym for our Tuesday evening rehearsals this semester. Because LOHS has three levels of boys and girls basketball and volleyball all competing for practice time in one gymnasium on our campus it has become impossible for our winter guards to get any gym time in the evening. This puts us at a disadvantage when we go to perform at WGASC events. Many other winter guards rehearse exclusively in gyms and much of our time is spent practicing outdoors where we are at the mercy of the elements and an unrealistic performance environment. Again, we want to extend our thanks to Mr. Evans and Vineyard Junior High School. Thanks for your support! WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2015 No zero period rehearsals this morning. This is an excellent time for our students to schedule beforeschool make-up tests or tutoring sessions with their teachers. As a reminder, missing one class to make up work for another class is against school policy. Please schedule make-ups and tutoring so that they do not interfere with our zero period rehearsals. Thank you! The music theory worksheet that was distributed yesterday in periods 3 & 4 is due to the Band Box today at the beginning of those classes. Please follow the instructions carefully and ensure that your first/last name is on both sides of the paper. Master Classes today from 3:15-4:15pm for ALL students in the program. Reminder that our Master Classes are a graded, mandatory requirement for participation in our program. Athletes are required to attend and may return to their athletic practices after our master class is over at 4:15pm. If there is a game conflict, athletes need to speak with Dr. A about this well in advance of the conflict. Consistent absences from Master Class may result in a student being dropped from the program. TIPS TO BE STRESS FREE – Rehearsal schedules, performances and other commitments can make for an exceptionally stressful time of year, especially as the weather is cold and immune systems tend to be weaker. 1) Start the day right. Try to find a routine – get up a little earlier than you typically do. Eat something before you start your day. It’s important to set the tone for the rest of your day. 2) Relax. Find moments of calm in our ever-busy lives and schedules is important when it comes to maintaining a balanced lifestyle. These moments can be anything that you find relaxing, such as running, listening to music, reading a book, playing your instruments for pure enjoyment, or just sitting and breathing – we often forget to truly let our bodies and minds relax. 3) Detox from digital devices. Managing stress has become more difficult as fear of missing out has become more and more a part of our digital lives. Digital detoxing has become increasingly important as far as stress management is concerned – try turning your phone off for one day a week or a month. You might be surprised at how liberating it feels. As we continue to be more invested and deeply concerned with the online versions of our lives we bring on more stress and a more confused identity. Making time to see friends and family in person has been linked to people reporting feeling more fulfilled and happy. 4. Get some sleep. Getting plenty of rest is also a key part of stress reduction. If you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, try some of these tips and tricks. Keep a pad of paper and a pen next to your bed to jot down any lingering thoughts that are keeping you awake. Also, eliminate digital light in the wee hours of the night and reserve your bed for only sleep. All in all, incorporating even just a few of these suggestions into your new health routine will have you feeling a little more at ease and stress-free. When in doubt, just take a few moments for yourself and/or a few deep calming breaths. It’s truly amazing what a few breaths with intention can do.
