Calendar Update – please read!

Hi everyone! We had to delete the calendar that was previously posted on the website and install a new one. (Google made some changes in December that disabled our editing capabilities.) If you “sync’d” the calendar to your phone, outlook, or other computer application, you will need to RE-ADD or SYNC the calendar. The new calendar has the name: Bellingham Music 2011-2012. You should be able to sync the new calendar by clicking on the calendar page and click on the icon ” +Google Calendar ” which is the bottom right corner of the posted calendar.  If you used the website just to look at the calendar, the functions have not changed and all the dates are still there.  If you have any issues, please feel to email us (or ask a student to help you, they probably know more than we do!) – Mrs. Forte (mforte@bellingham.k12.ma.us)

BHS Chamber Ensembles

BHS band students in grades 10, 11, and 12 will be working on a chamber music unit in January. Most groups received music before winter vacation. Please try to communicate with your group over vacation to select 2 – 4 pieces to begin rehearsing. Please sight-read and play these pieces individually over break so you are not sight-reading at your first rehearsal. During the first week of January, groups will select 1 – 2 pieces to perform. All freshmen band students will be working with Mrs. Forte on full band literature in January and upperclassmen will rotate for chamber ensemble rehearsals.
