The Irons Invitational is the Performance Festival trip offered to students in Talkington Beginner Strings and Talkington MS Intermediate (Non-Varsity) Orchestra. The total cost per student is $25, which can be paid through orchestra-approved fundraisers and/or personal funds (cash or check: Talkington Orchestra). Students will perform a concert of 3 musical selections for a panel of judges. The highest possible rating is "Superior." Ensembles that earn a Superior rating for their performance are then put into a second "contest." All ensembles in a category (e.g., Beginner Orchestra, Non-Varsity Orchestra, etc.) are compared and one ensemble in the category is awarded "Outstanding in Class." Lunch will be provided.
Specific dates, times, and itinerary items will be available through Cut Time.
Attire: Talkington Orchestra T-Shirt, performance-appropriate blue jeans (no holes or rips), and black or white closed-toe shoes.
Resources: All students are required to have their "home" instrument for this event, as well as their own music.
