CONDUCT

As a member: of the H 1 gh I aride r Band each person assumes a highly vl e I b l e positIon. You automatically become a representative of your community, school t and orqanlzation. Briefly. band members are ladles and gentlemen. They conduct t hemae 1 ve s 1 n that manner at a 11 t lmes and intentionally do nothing that will re r i ec t negatIvely on themselves or their group. The Highlander Band Is a unique organ 1 z s t 101'1 cornp r I sed of spec 1 a I p e op l e , Remember who you are!

I NSTlWMENTS

The instrument you play. whether your own or the school's, represents a considerable Investment, All students 'are expected to maintain their personal Instruments In top playJ.ng cond l t l on . Successful fulff '! l rne n t of the below l l at e d r equ 1 r erne n t s ace v t to. I 1 f we are to ach 1 eve the musical excel lance to which we aspire. Remember fallure to

"have the necessary accessorIes or to properly maintain Your Instrument could affect your grade. Note: Should a malfUnction of your. instrument occur please bring It to Mr. Phillips' attentIon as 800n as possible. Frequently a minor adjust~ent will alleviate the problem thus saving the time and expense of a visIt to the repaIr shop.

It you play l mmed l a t e l y after eating be eur e to brush your teeth or. at least rinse vour mouth with water. This w l l ) deer-ease the accumu 1 a tI on of !I gunk" 1 n the 1 nat rumen t and mouthpiece. BLEAH!! This practice will a t so m l n l rn l z e sticky valves and p~olong pad J lfe.

WOODWINDS

All instruments must have correctly functioning key mechanisms and pads which ~BeatU properly.

Dry the bore of your instrument after each playing sessIon. The lIfe of your pads will be doubled.

A small paint brush l s pC:H'rect tor per Lod l c a l l y dusting key mechanisms (especially during marchIng season). Dust and all make great glue If left undIsturbed.

3

Flute and Piccolo

A cleanIng rod and cloth (an old handkerchIef works weI I) are requIred. Wipe the bore of your Instrument each time you finish a playing session. Check the position of the head Joint cork periodically. This wil I save much Intonation misery.

Clarinets

Al I players must have a minImum of two good reeds In their cases at all times. Also, have a contaIner of cork grease and keep corks lubricated. Have a swab and use It. A half piece of number 400 grit wet/dry sandpaper to adjust reeds Is very important. A 35 millimeter film case for water to moisten reeds is suggested. Mouthpieces should be washed frequently with soap and luke warm water.

Saxophones

RequIrements are generally the same as for clarinets.

BRASSES

'Valved Br.asses

All instruments must have every 91 Ide easily movable.

TImely lubrication with slide l ubr f c an t Or' petroleum Jelly and dally moving of each 81 Ide will keep each slIde easily adjustable. Each player should have a supply of valve all and 51 ide lubrIcant In his case. Valves should always be kept clean. well oiled and free moving. All trumpets should have wherever possible a third valve slide ring or equivalent. All lnst~uments should be cleaned with luke warm water and a mild detergent every four to six weeks, more o r t en clueing mar ch l nq season. An appcoPt'late c l e an Lno snake Is vital for this purpose. Mouthpieces should be cleaned weekly using a mouthpiece brush. Please note: rotary valves on french horn and trombone "F" attachments need special handling - see Me. Phil lIps for instructIons.

Tcombone

The slide must be treated with utmost care in order to be kept free from dents. The elide must be able to move easily and quIckly. The use of clear plastic slide guards

51 ide cream and water method using !lSuper Sllok" or the equivalent. 81 Ide all Is not acceptable and should be used only In an emergency oc by new students untIl they have been Instructed In the proper procedure for slide maintenance.

PERCUSSION

The acquisition and malntenance of quality percussion equIpment In very expensIve. HIstorically students using these Items have been known for less than responsible treatment of this equIpment. ALL percussIonists are responsible for keeping all instruments In proper condition and for storing them In their appropriate places. Players are responsible for having proper sticks available during

r ehe ar ee 1 e . Studen ts who are not members ot the per cuee i on section shal I not touch or "play" any percussIon instrument.

SCHOOL OWNED INSTRUMENTS

UsIng a school instrument. Is a privllege not a right.

These instruments wII] be maintained and respected as If they wer.e your own, You are responsible for the return of the instrument In the same condItion as it was receIved. If you damage or abuse It you wi I 1 have It repaired to Mr, Phillips' satIsfaction.

ANCILLARY EQUIPMENT

Each player shall have a soft lead pencil within easy reach at each rehear.sal. Dur.ing marchlng season each person wil I have a fJ ip folder In which to store all mer cn t nc music, A I so a f 1 nget"' 1 ng char t for your r eepe c t l v e 1 nstrument 1 e extremely useful.

MUSIC

Music represents a vltal and astonishingly expensive part of the band program, Each at uoen tis 1 eeue d h 1 s own part to each piece belng prepared. Do not crunch It up In cases or leave It unattended BO that It Is easily lost. Music functIons as the textbook would In an academiC coucse and as with a textbook, lost or damaged musl c IN' 11 J be charged to the student.

l<EHEARSALS

OB.JECTIVE

The only ceason for. rehearsal Ie the perfection of musical P0crormance. Through t h l s practice comes the learning and Improvement of oue musical skills. The task of preparing a truly musIcal performance Is not easy and requires concentrated wack from everyone, whether It is two months or two days before a performance.

WARMING UP

When you arrlve In the rehearsal hal I you wi! I have a few m i nu tee dur 1 ng wh 1 ch you c an warm up embouchure, f 1 ngers and instrument. The quiet playing of long tones, scales, and lip slueB Is the best way to condltlon yourself for playing. Do not blast or blat or attempt to use this tIme for social hour. Warm up ceases when the dIrector steps on the podium

PI<OMPTN ESS

Al I students are expected to be In their seats with instruments ready to play at the announced time. During eIghth perlod this time wil J be shortly after the bell has rung. During other times it wil I be at the announced starting time. For example, an 8:00 AM rehearsal call does not mean getting out of the car at 8:00 AM; it means being in your seat ready to play at 8:00 AM.

SCflEDULES

The vast majority of preparation and instruction takes

,place during the school day. Marchlng rehearsals however necessitate additional time. Rehearsals are usually scheduled each day after school until the flrst football

game and then each Tuesday ~ 'I'hur edav , arid Fc 1 day un t i 1 footba 1 1 season is camp 1 e t e d . For the most p.3,ct these

r-ehe ar aa 18 ace como 1 e t e d 1 n tl me TOC at uden t s to r l de the tour o<c l ock late bus. SattJrda}1 schedules typically include morning rehear.sals followed by afternoon attendance at the football game. Inclement weather, the availabillty of practice fields and other mitigatIng circumstances occasionally necessitate an alterlng of this schedule.

During the year's that a sl',)t-lng compe t l t l on trip is scheduled addItional rehearsal time is requiced. This may involve after school, evening" or Saturday houre. Additionally, depending on the school calendar rehear8als may have to be scheduled duclng the spclng school recess, Failure to attend these rehearsals may JeopardIze the student"8 participation in the competitions.

II BAND CAf1pu

Prior to the opening of schoo!. usually during the last week In August the entire band meets at the school for a vleek of concen t co. ted study and. ~~eheaX'sa 1 0 Inc 1 ude d 1 n the act! v 1 t i 68 of the week are the 1 n t r'oduc t i on and rev t ew of all playing and marching fundamentals. Aleo, the musIc and dr l l J for the ·field show are Lnt r oduced , Attendance at II camp II Is extremely l rnpor t an t . Those who miss even a portion will fInd themselves seriously behind. Their par t l c l pa t l on In competitions e nd pe r f crmance e may be affected.

PUBLIC PERFORMANCES

PHILOSOPHY

A primacy goal of our ensembles Is the presentation of musIc In concert, be It on the stage. In a parade~ or on a footbal I fIeld. A publ Ie performance Is the culmination of a large segment of work and is directly comparable to a test. However. while a test Is a measure of individual aecomp 1 i ehme n t , a per f ormanc e J. s more. It ~ 8 an examo I e of a special kInd of teamwork that requires the presence and contrlbutlon of every member of the ensemble,

ATTENDANCE

Keeping this In mind~ attendance at al I performances and rehearsals is mandatory, Just as absence from class during a test wi 1 I adversely affect one/s grade, unauthorized absence from a pe~formance wll I have the same result. A wrltten test may be made up -- a performance cannot.

There must be~ of course, certain exceptions such as 11 lness. However~ those who are absent often, or at

cr l t l c e l t l me s , must be prepared to miss perfor'mances. tours, etc. at the dIscretion of the director. The performance that many have worked hard to perfect must not be we ake ne d by one or two.

PERFORMANCE COMMITMENTS

The band appears frequently throughout the school year.

Traditionally those performances Include but are not limited to al I varsity foatbal l games. several field competitions, a holIday and sprlng concert~ perfor.mances at the distrIct

e 1 erne n t ar y schoo 1 e , and the t owneh I p t1emor 1 a I Day parade. AddItional concert fe8tlvals~ recitals and other events are scheduled as the opportunltles arise. Performance dates are announced well In advance to avoid conflicts.

DRESS

Most march 1 ng praeformances axe execu t ed 1 n f u I I un 1 form. Most f erma] concerts u t1 ] i z e the un Hann as we 1 1 ~.., lth the exception of the shako and spats. On some less t orme l occasions Jacket and tIe. a dress or a skIrt. or the "un l f orm T eh l r t " will be appl~opL~late. Please note that frequently the final rehearsal before a major performance or competitIon may be referred to as a "dress" rehearsal. For the most part this means performing as 1f It were the "real thing" but not In uniform.
