Spring Concert

Our final concert of the year is coming up and everyone is cordially invited to attend and support the students as it is always more enjoyable for the students to perform to a packed house with loud applause.

Thursday, May 15th
7:00 PM (Doors open at 6:50 PM)
Clear Springs High School Auditorium

This concert is looking to be a great concert for the whole family. Selections will include a medley from The Wizard of Oz to celebrate its 75th anniversary, Let It Go from the movie Frozen, and two of Leroy Anderson’s most famous pieces, The Syncopated Clock and Bugler’s Holiday, featuring trumpet soloists Adam Hazel, Cole Gibbs, and Gilberto Torres.  You won’t want to miss it!

This will also be the last time our seniors will perform with The Clear Springs Charger Band.  This means that this concert could be the last time some of these seniors will ever play with a band again, so all family members and friends won’t want to miss it.

UIL & Pre-UIL Performances Upcoming

The students have been working hard for several months now preparing for The UIL Concert & Sight-Reading Contest which is right around the corner.  However, before they perform at Pearland for judges they will be performing their contest music at our Pre-UIL concert so that the students can have an opportunity to perform for an audience before UIL and so that friends and family who cannot attend UIL can have an opportunity to hear the contest music.

Pre-UIL Concert
Tuesday April 15th
7:00pm
Clear Springs High School – Auditorium

Please come and support your child and encourage any other friends/family to come as it is always more enjoyable for the students to perform a concert with a large audience and loud applause.  If you are able, please consider also coming to Pearland and supporting the students at their UIL performances as well.
