Hillsborough County Master Musician Program
The Master Musician Program is designed to encourage talented music students to continue their progress beyond the classroom setting. This program gives students an opportunity to receive district level recognition, achieve their highest musical potential, and develop a professional portfolio which can be used as an indicator of achievement for college auditions, admissions, and scholarships. If you are interested, please read through this manual and let Mr. Barthle or Mr. Larimer know.
Solo & Ensemble Festival
This is an individual or group opportunity for students to perform solos and/or perform in an ensemble with other students from the band for district and state evaluation. Some of the greatest learning moments happen playing in a smaller chamber ensemble!
