First Playing Test Dates Coming Up!

Students will be demonstrating skills on their instruments very soon, and have two ways to do it;

  1. Online using BandLab
  2. In-Person on the Dates Below.

If a student chooses to complete a playing test online using BandLab, they must do so in advance of the In-Person Date for their class.  A demonstration is included for you below of the Grade 7 Playing Test.

If a student chooses to complete the playing test in-person, it will happen during the regularly-scheduled band class on the following days;

  • Grade 7 - October 27, 2023 (B-Flat Tetrachord)
  • Grade 8 - November 15, 2023 (G Minors)
  • Grade 9 - November 15, 2023 (B-Flat Chromatic)
  • Instrumental Music 10 - November 16, 2023 (F Major Scale)
  • Instrumental Music 20 - November 16, 2023 (Full Instrument Chromatic Scale)
  • Instrumental Music 30 - November 16, 2023 (A-Flat Major Scale, 1.5 octaves)

Late completions cannot be accepted, so students are heavily encouraged to complete work on BandLab.

Please give your students space and time to practice these skills at home, and perhaps the devices necessary to complete it as well.

Happy musicking!
