Re:     Maple Grove Elementary Band Solo Night, Monday, May 5th, 2008

Dear Band Parents,

Soon every band student will be working on a solo for his or her  
instrument.  To showcase all the hard work that students have put  
into their solos, we host a special evening called the "Maple Grove  
Elementary Band Solo Night".  We will have judges for the evening to  
listen and provide helpful feedback for your student.  Our goal is to  
make this a very positive "first-time solo" experience for your child.

The fifth graders will be scheduled to perform in five-minute slots  
starting right after school on Monday, May 5th.  Here's everything  
you need to know:

1.  On the next page is the schedule for our Maple Grove Elementary  
Band Solo Night on May 5th.  I ask that everyone try to stick with  
the schedule. However, if your student is really unable to perform at  
that time, please let Mr. Graziano know immediately and we'll try to  
make arrangements to switch with someone else.  Parents, please plan  
to watch your child's performance.  Remember you only need to stay  
for his or her individual five-minute time slot.

2.  This event takes place at Maple Grove Elementary.  We will have  
students perform in two rooms labeled Purple Room and Gold Room (Most  
likely this will be the music room or the band room.  I'll have  
everything secured as we get closer to the date).  As always, please  
enter through the main entrance at Maple Grove Elementary near the  
main office.

3.  Students should try to dress nicely for their solo performance.

4.  It is important to be on time.  We will follow the schedule  
exactly as shown.  Students should arrive 10 to 15 minutes early so  
they will have time to assemble their instrument and play some warm- 
up exercises before entering the performance room.

5.  Do you play the piano?  I am looking for parents who would like  
to help provide piano accompaniment for the student solos.  If you  
can help, please contact Mr. Graziano as soon as possible.  I can  
give you the music ahead of time if you need to practice! :)

I'm looking forward to a wonderful evening!  If you have questions,  
please contact me at school:  987-3363 ext. 6146 or e-mail:   
rgraziano at waukee.k12.ia.us  Thanks!  :)
