State Concert Festival Assessment

The Titan Band is eagerly looking forward to our performance at the VBODA State Concert Festival on Saturday March 10 in the Margaret F. Gregory Theater at Lloyd C. Bird High School.   Our members are preparing very hard for this important event—one where we will earn our state ratings for the year and hopefully, our third Virginia Honor Band title!!

Our day looks like this:

3:30---band members seated dressed in Cosby concert wear for rehearsal

3:40---Rehearsal in Cosby Band Room

Load busses and depart for LCB after rehearsal

4:15--Load

4:30--Go

5:00--- arrive at LCB (eat at their wonderful concessions as time allows)

6:15--warmups

7:00---Titan Showtime---in the theater--free and open to the public

7:25—sight reading in the LCB band hall after the stage performance (not open to the public)

At or around 8:00, our scores will be posted in the LCB commons and our students will then be free to leave for home with their families.  No band members should be without transportation at this point in time.  As a parent, make sure that you attend your child’s performance at 7:00 to support your child in this very important event.  The doors to the Gregory Theater close at the beginning of our show and no one will be permitted to enter once the band has begun playing.

Slight changes to the festival schedule may still occur.  Your child, as always, will be kept up to date on any schedule changes.  We will also have a link on the Titan Band website that will take you directly to the VBODA District 3 site once the festival schedules are posted.
