Friday, April 5th was an exciting day for 4 of our 6th grade band members.

(L-R): Will, Russell, Aidan, and Kathryn all participated in their first PMEA (Pennsylvania Music Educators Association) Festival at Penn Cambria High School. 6th graders from Blair, Bedford, Cambria, and Somerset Counties were honored to be a part of the special day! They rehearsed all day from 9AM until 5PM and then put on a concert for family and friends at the conclusion of the evening.

This annual festival is a great opportunity for students to play in a large ensemble and to get them excited about music! 🎶 And hopefully, the beginning of their musical growth and development for the rest of their lives!

Way to go!
BG Music Dept is very proud of you! 👏🏻

Today, 4/3 was a very exciting day in the growth and future of our instrumental music program at BG!

Our 4th and 5th grade band members from both Fairview and Eldorado made the journey to BG High School to rehearse for their upcoming Spring concert April 24th.

Jr and Sr high band members helped during the rehearsal with pointers and advice. They also shared why band and music is important to them! We had the room filled with band students from 4th through 12th grade! All working together! It was truly an amazing experience!

Thank you parents and administrators for your support! Thank you to Mrs. Fabinyi for helping to get the students to and from their schools!

Music 🎵 is strong and its future is bright here at BG!
