2024 CSUF Titan High School Honor Band
Greetings, Colleagues:
The California State University, Fullerton Bands are pleased to announce the Second-Annual CSUF Titan High School Honor Band! We are excited to invite you and your students to join us!
The CSUF Titan High School Honor Band will rehearse at the CSUF School of Music according to the following rehearsal schedule:
April 12th, 2024 – 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM.
April 13th, 2024 – 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM (Lunch Included)
Participation and seating in the honor band will be determined by director recommendation. We ask high school band directors to recommend no more than three to four students, which will allow students from a variety of schools to participate. Directors will be asked to use a ranking system for their musician recommendations, with the top two students guaranteed admission to the ensemble. Those ranked 3 or 4 will be admitted based upon space in the ensemble. We ask that each director recommend students whose talent, musicality, and maturity will allow them to be successful in a serious honor band environment. Please see the following honor band recommendation form .
Participation in the CSUF Titan Honor Band requires a $40 payment. The fee includes a T-Shirt and Lunch on Saturday (April 13th). Director recommendations are due by January 17th, 2024 (11:59 PM). Ensemble parts will be distributed electronically. All ensemble information can be found via the CSUF Titan High School Honor Band Page on the CSUF School of Music Website .
We look forward to collaborating with you and your students! Please email Dr. Whitmore with any questions.
