If you need to leave the performance due to an emergency, please do so between pieces. You can avoid distracting the performers and the rest of the audience by minimizing movement during the concert.
Please refrain from continuous conversation during the performance. The comments you make may be heard by those around you as well as the performers.
Children are the future of our music programs, and should be encouraged to attend concerts whenever possible. Please bring children who will appreciate the music that is being performed. Most children are fascinated by performers’ voices and instruments. If a child begins to cry or if an emergency occurs, please leave the performance area discreetly and quickly. And by all means, return to the concert as soon as you are able!
Please take the time to compliment our student performers at the end of the concert, regardless of mistakes that were made or distractions that occurred. Every one of these students worked hard to learn their music; they deserve to hear praise for their performance!
