Liberty JH Band to Chicago

Meet the Liberty Junior High Symphonic Band under the direction of Chris Pineda! These amazing kids have been invited by The Midwest Clinic to present two separate clinics in December, in Chicago at McCormick Place. The Midwest Clinic is an annual gathering of musicians and teachers of band and orchestra from all over the world and the Liberty Band is invited as part of the Title 1 initiative. Their first clinic is titled, “Beauty from the Beginning” and will be led by renowned composer, Frank Ticheli, who coincidently is a Berkner High School graduate. The second is “Teach the Kids, The Band Will Take Care of Itself” led by Mr. Pineda and Ms. Lynne Jackson.

Our students, parents, staff and administration are all extremely excited and working very hard toward making this endeavor a rewarding experience.  All parties involved are working to finance this trip comfortably for the individual families… but we need your help!  The goal of $20,000 would directly reduce the cost of the trip to a managable amount for each family!  

We would like to reach our goal by November 1, 2016!
