FMCMEA Auditions

FMCMEA Honor Band, Symphony Orchestra, and Percussion auditions are open from Monday 11/15 to Wednesday 12/1. Auditions this year will be done via an audio/video recording that is submitted online. Music is available for all interested instrumental music students. Students who audition or submit a recording of the audition repertoire to their director will receive extra credit! For more information, please visit fmcmea.org 

MB - 11/12 Rehearsal

Marching band students will rehearse on Friday 11/12 from 2:00-5:00PM. All students are expected to be in attendance. Dinner will be provided after rehearsal, before we load the bus for the football game.

MB - 11/12 Football Playoffs

Following the rehearsal on Friday, our band will be performing at the playoff game vs. Bullard High School. We will be bussing all students over to McLane Stadium at 6:00pm, and will provide return transportation at the conclusion of the game. Since we are not performing at half-time, students should plan to wear their CW Instrumental Music T-shirts and bring warm clothes! The outcome of this game will determine what happens on 11/19. You can view the bracket here: https://www.cifcs.org/sports/fball/fb_bracketd2_21_22.pdf

Please keep the following dates on your calendar: 11/19 & 11/26. As the season continues, the playoff bracket will cut in half each week. Each game eliminates the losing team from the next round, so as an example, if our team were to lose the game on 11/12, they would not play a game on 11/19. We sincerely hope that our team has the most successful postseason they possibly can, and will be there to support them along the way. Please plan for a football game performance at every one of the above dates.

MB - 11/13 WBA Regional Finals @ Kingsburg HS

This Saturday we will conclude our Fall Marching Band competitive season with our final performance of “Where We Ought to Be” at WBA Regional Finals in Kingsburg! The CWMB will perform at 4:51PM, and we invite you all to join us for this final event! Thank you to all the students, staff, and parent volunteers that have made our 2021 season memorable and successful!  

Jazz Concert 11/18

Our Clovis West Jazz Band will perform their first in-person concert of the year along with Kastner’s Jazz Band and Jazz Choir on 11/18. CW students performing should report to the PAC at 5:30 for a 30 minute sound check, then be back by 7pm. Please join us at 7pm for the first CW Jazz in-person concert in 21 months.
