This week the "Encore Jazz" Ensemble performed at the Mendham Jazz Festival. I am very proud of the performance and the high energy and musicality that our group performs with.
They all looked sharp, sounded fantastic and...well...then the fire alarm went off. After 30 minutes outside we returned to perform our last tune. I was impressed with how the students regained the spirit and feeling of the night. Kudos to a great group!
Our upcoming Spring concerts are:
May 15th: 6th grade band / Honors Ensembles / Encore Jazz at 7pm
May 17th: 7/8 grade band / Honors Ensembles / Encore Jazz at 7pm
I am always trying to find new ways to help things run smoother without causing too much extra work. One area is communication. I have been experimenting with different ideas and decide to try an email campaign for Chester.
1. I will send out an email about once a month to update the current students and parents about news and information.
2. I will send out information to the Alumni and community about upcoming concerts and cool news.
The great part about this email is that the receiver can edit their email address, add new subscribers, forward the email to friends or just decide to unsubscribe. All from the email. It is worth a try.

We have a busy few weeks ahead of us. I hope that you can join us for a concert or two.
