Any and all former graduates of the Northbrook Junior High band program are invited to participate in the NBJH Bands Alumni Festival at 7 p.m. Dec. 18.
Alumni are invited to participate at any level they are comfortable: as audience members, casual performers, or full-fledged members of the NBJH Wind Ensemble, according to a news release. The alumni who wish to join the band as casual performers are invited to play “Star Spangled Banner” alongside the students. For those alumni who still perform actively, more difficult selections will be available for them to perform with the Wind Ensemble members.
This year’s event will also see the return of the NBJH Jazz Factory to the evening’s performances. Many of thre school’s alums made significant contributions to its jazz program.
“We are pleased to offer the opportunity for them to join us on stage one more time,” the release said
