Permission slips were sent home on Monday, the 11th.

Students will report to Meyzeek like a normal day, already in performance uniform (see the Band Handbook for more...). Students will need enough cash for lunch, as we are stopping at a local food court afterwards. We will return by the end of the school day.

This is our "Remind" service, which is a VERY IMPORTANT way for you and Mr. Daniel to communicate quickly.

This is for MEYZEEK Band parents, rather than the two elementary schools at which he also teaches. They have their own code.

Thanks to our Bandlings and their parents for making the journey!

Bandmate Chromatic Tuner

EVERY musician must develop their ears. It is necessary that all of us be able to play every note on our instruments "in tune." That is, our sound waves are physically synchronized with the sound waves of our fellow Bandlings.

This app was written by a band director. It is simple to use, and best of all, it is FREE. PLEASE use it, or purchase a hand-held tuner from a music store!

Just a friendly reminder:

Unless they have permission from the ensemble's director, members do NOT change their instruments. No, this isn't an issue right now. Quite honestly, it's just a simple reminder before it becomes an issue in the future.

(It's akin to a football player deciding on their own that they aren't going to be a receiver, anymore, and they are going to, instead, be the quarterback.)
