Band Festival 2011
2011 La Sierra University Invitational Band Festival
The Department of Music is pleased to announce that Dr. Kenneth Narducci will be the clinician for the 2011 LSU Invitational Band Festival that is to be held on October 19-22. We hope that this year's event will truly be a highlight for all the students and directors, and a great way to kick-off the academic year.
Audition guidelines are available on the Music Department website. Please contact Dr. Narducci if there are any technical problems downloading material.
All auditions are to be completed by Friday, September 19 to ensure program music is received promptly. Dr. Narducci is planning to visit with as many academies to hold on-site auditions if schedules allow it. If an on-site schedule is unavailable, recordings will be accepted and should be received by Friday, September 19.
La Sierra University’s Wind Ensemble has supplemented the festival band where needed, and will do so again this year where possible. Directors are cordially invited and encouraged to sit in for rehearsal and the concert.
A nominal fee of $50 will cover the cost of music, meals, housing, and activities for this year’s festival. If there are any issues regarding finances, please contact Dr. Narducci directly at knarducc@lasierra.edu. We want as many students to participate in this experience as possible.
Here is a brief overview of planned activities at this year’s festival addition to rehearsals:
- sectionals and individual instrumental clinics with LSU adjunct faculty
- worships with LSU staff and student leaders
- social activities with participating academies
- vespers program featuring LSU performing faculty and students
- 9:30a church service
- Sabbath afternoon concert
The entire faculty and staff of the Department of Music, and other collaborating entities of La Sierra University are working together to help make this a unique and unforgettable experience for your students. Mrs. Lovelyn Razzouk will be assisting all aspects of the festival. She will be helping to make sure our musical and extra-musical needs are attended to, as well as trouble shoot when issues arise during the festival. Please feel free to contact her as well if you have questions regarding this event atlrazzouk@lasierra.edu.
If you have suggestions, comments, or need clarification about any aspect of the 2011 Band Festival, please contact Dr. Narducci as soon as possible. Thank you for your continued support.
