JH Viking Concert Band Classic

The 8th grade and 7th grade concert bands will be traveling to Springfield, MO to participate in the Viking Concert Band Classic music festival. Students will perform prepared pieces for a panel of judges and receive a contest rating. The judges will work with the ensemble and provide feedback. We always look forward to these events as an opportunity to perform in a music hall. To do our best it will be vital that we have all of our performers at the performance. They will need their black Neosho Junior High band t-shirt and black dress pants for the performance. Students will also need to bring lunch money.

Parents please email Mrs. Gorman if you need the class code for the Neosho JH honor band remind101.
