Wewill only use three high school bands this time around to keep it manageable. Each
band will only get about 10 minutesto play their own material to lead off the concert. No
ratings. Just do your best and have fun!
The clinicians we have are top notch: Seth Ebersole for saxes, Mike Williams for brass,
Jim Coviak for rhythm section, and Jeff Price for improvisation.
