CONCERT BAND
Concert Band is a class that meets daily. Students receive a grade for participation and perform in roughly 5–6 concerts per year. 

There are four bands:  Brass Ensemble, Concert, Symphony and Wind Symphony. Placement is by audition.

Concert Uniforms

Students are being measured for their tux or concert dress by one of our concert uniform coordinators, Mrs Dixon. Boys will be issued a school owned tuxedo and girls will need to purchase their dresses. In addition to the main portion of the concert uniform, students will need to purchase additional items of their own to complete their concert attire.  
Ladies
  • Black closed toe shoes
  • Black hose/knee highs
  • Please keep jewelry basic.
Gentlemen
  • Winged collar tuxedo shirt
  • Black cummerbund 
  • Black bowtie
  • All black dress shoes
  • All black socks
  • Accessories: cuff links, shirt studs in black/silver.

These items can be found at any tux shop (located in most malls).
Students will receive their concert attire about 7–10 days before the first concert. Pants and dresses WILL NEED TO BE HEMMED BEFORE THE FIRST CONCERT Fall of 2020
​
CONCERT GOWN INFORMATION
Girls will be measured for their formal, black concert gown and sent home with the Concert Information form available below.

Each girl purchases her own gown which she will use throughout her time in the Pope Band. The gowns cost $75. We must receive the payment before your daughter can receive her gown. If you are not sure if you have paid for your daughter's dress, you can check your band account statement in Charms.

Where you can get the items

The stores below have very helpful staff. If you tell them you are in the Pope Band and need the accessories for your band tuxedo, they will be able to get you what you need. You may purchase from other stores or online, but make sure you will receive the items in time.

They have shirts and bowtie/cummerbund sets in stock now, but don't wait until the last minute in case they run out of your size and need to special order. 
They have tuxedo shirts for $20. Their satin bowtie/cummerbund sets are $12. If you have a cummerbund and just need a bowtie they are $6.50. The cufflinks are $7.

K&G Fashionstore – great for dress shoes –

What to do if you can’t get the items by the fall 2020 concert 

Wear a nice white dress shirt with the tuxedo. Show up early for the concert so you can borrow a loaner bowtie and cummerbund. Marching shoes are acceptable as long as they are clean.
