Lee's Summit West High School's Band, Choir, and Orchestra Programs
Una Voce Chamber Choir 2014-2015
Thank you ALL for investing so much of your time and energy in the audition process for the 2014-2015 Chamber Choir. Obviously, this is an incredibly competitive process, but unfortunately there cannot be a place for everyone. I am so proud of each and every one of you. What amazing and talented students we have at Lee’s Summit West.
The call back results from today’s Una Voce auditions will be posted tomorrow after 5th hour. Those called back need to be available for rehearsal tomorrow from 2:45-4:00. Thank you for some wonderful auditions today! Certainly some fantastic singing and musicianship going on in the LSW choral program!
Please fill out this form if you’re interested in helping with the Summit Band Camp, which runs July 7-11 at Lee’s Summit High School from 9:30a-2:30p.
Dear Choir Families:
THANK YOU for your support of FNL last weekend! The kids went above and beyond and worked incredibly hard to execute such a fun and entertaining evening. Thanks to your support, we raised a record amount of funds to sustain the choral program over the next year, THANK YOU!
We will be placing the DVD order on Friday. If you still want to order one, please return the attached form with your $10.00 (checks payable to LSW) to the choir office no later than Friday, May 16.
Have a great summer!

Because
of athletic events that directly conflict with our normal Tuesday 6-8pm
rehearsal, the students chose to reschedule our last rehearsal for Saturday, May 10th from 3-5pm. This is the same day as Friday Night Live. Boys:
tennis shoes/sneakers, jeans, black dress shirt, bright solid-colored tie.
Girls: black leggings, a reflective top (sequined, glitter, etc.).
We’re excited to announce the new uniforms for the Titan Pride Marching Band. We think the design is awesome and we’re really looking forward to starting the next decade with a new look designed for the Titan Pride by DCI Hall of Fame member and Artistic Director of DCI, Michael Cesario, and produced by Fred J. Miller, Inc. (See information below about getting fitted for the uniforms)
Take a moment to imagine the unveiling in the two images below!
Greetings! We have to have all of NEXT season’s marching band members fitted in the next few days. In an effort to provide several options for getting this done, we are going to start TOMORROW (Thursday) NIGHT at 6:00pm in the band room area. If your son/daughter is available to come sometime between 6 and 8pm for about 10-15 minutes, please come during that time. This will help expedite this tight deadline.
We are SUPER excited about what next year has to offer and it all starts right now!
March on Titan Pride!

During Cavalcade of Bands on Monday April 28th, the combined bands played a new piece of music written by Mr. Harrel with electronic accompaniment provided by Macbook Pro. We featured Mr. Harvey on trumpet and senior and 2-time All State Jazz Band member Isaiah Carter on drums.
