2008-2009 CHS Blue Tones Jazz Band

The CHS Blue Tones Jazz Band will begin another year of jazz music. Rehearsals will be 3 days a week, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings, 6:45 am to 7:25 am.

New members, new music and new activities will be built into our expanding program. One of my goals this year is to create smaller ensembles within the Blue Tones. The smaller ensembles would be a rhythm section with 2-3 soloists. Our membership this year will provide multiple rhythm sections for various small groups. We will be invited to play more venues with our smaller groups.

Other changes:
• New ‘uniform’
• More festivals
• New music
• German Jazz Band visitation in the spring
• New Members
• Linus Pauling performance

The Blue Tones will be fee-based as in the past. Rehearsals will be September to June.
The fee schedule will be:
One annual payment: $260.00 = $260.00 Annual Cost
Semester payment: $135.00 = $270.00 Annual Cost
Monthly payment: $30.00 = $300.00 Annual Cost
(Checks are Payable to Marshall Price)

I am looking to a great year of creative jazz music and lots of fun with each of you,
Marshall Price
