Band Day 2012

Saturday, September 8, 2012

For over twenty years, Butler University has been inviting high school bands and band directors for instrument-specific master classes with Butler section leaders and graduate students. Participants perform at half-time alongside other musicians, showcasing their talents in front of an energetic Butler Bowl crowd. Each year, a guest artist on the featured instrument joins in the fun.band day flutes

Clarinets blew the crowd away in 2010, while Tubas took center field in 2011. For 2012, we are proud to feature Flutes and Piccolos, with Butler Unversity Professor of Flute, Karen Moratz.

Join us on Saturday, September 8th for Band Day 2012!

Of course we want all members of your band to attend, but you are also welcome to just send your Flutes and Piccolo students. All students will be involved in the morning rehearsal, the faculty master-classes and the on-field massed band performance. There are no student costs for the day's events, and Butler football game tickets are a great bargain for parents at the gate (only $10). Come see our newly renovated stadium and its beautiful "Field Turf" surface!
