Our first planning meeting went really well and we have committee chairs for many of the activities. However we still need coordinators to help with Food and the Silent Auction--these are very important tasks and there is information from last year's coordinators that we will pass on to whoever helps with these tasks. We also need some assistant coordinators for many activities-- being an assistant coordinator is a good opportunity for 10th and 11th grade parents to help out and learn the ropes, so that next year we will have some experienced folks to help with this event! Come join the fun on November 17 and help with the Coconut Grove 2012 planning!

Some members of the DHS Symphonic Band and the UC Davis Concert Band will perform together under the direction of Fred Lange and UC Davis band director Pete Nowlen.

The featured presentations of this concert will include highlights of Japanese folktales presented by the "Noh Theater" group (pictured below), an ensemble that performs ancient Japanese music and plays from the 12-14th centuries. The Sister City Concert will be held this Sunday, November 6th, at 3 pm at the Veteran's Memorial Theater as part of a celebration to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Sister City relationship between Davis and Inuyama, Japan.

Better and more replete information on this weekend's Sister City Concert (Sunday, Nov 6th at 3 pm, Veteran's Memorial Theater) has been provided by Maki Kuper. Read on... Joyce Hello Band Members,Below is information about this weekend's concert. It promises to be very special with the Noh Theater performance group coming from Japan for this event. I heard the Sister City Honor Band yesterday and I highly recommend it to all the DHS band students. It is a very fine ensemble and an opportunity to hear a very good band concert. In addition the flute choir and Native American flute performers will also be not only good, but interesting to hear different sounds. Thanks for coming over to Vets this weekend. And oh yes, the DHS Japanese Club will have lots of delicious Japanese refreshments for you at intermission. Maki Kuper Band Parent and 10th Anniversary Concert ChairpersonDavis will celebrate its 10th anniversary of its sister-city relationship with Inuyama, Japan, in a unique, entertaining cultural exchange concert on Sunday, November 6, at 3:00 p.m. at the Veterans Memorial Theater (203 East Fourteenth Street, Davis). A group of Noh Theater performers will be in Davis to perform in full Japanese costumes and masks. The ensemble includes the Noh flute (rarely heard in the United States), singers, dancers and drummers who will depict ancient Japanese tales. Davis will represent American culture with its Davis Youth Flute Choir and members of the Camellia City Flute Choir under the direction of Maquette Kuper, and a special Sister City Honor Band with the top members of Davis High School?s Symphonic Band and UCD?s Concert Band under the direction of Fredrick Lange and Pete Nowlen. There will all also be a presentation of the Native American flute by Deborah Pittman. Yolo County Supervisor Don Saylor will be the MC for the event. Sister City Ambassdor Ruth Asmundson will give her remarks about the sister city programs (Davis has seven sister cities) and read a statement from State Senator Lois Wolk. Mayor Joe Krovoza will welcome the delegates from Japan. Friends of Davis president Yoshio Kobayashi and Friends of Inuyama president Paul Sieracki will exchange greetings. The public is invited to learn more about the Noh flute and Kabuki Theater at a workshop with the Inuyama group on Saturday, November 5 at 3:00 p.m. in the band room at Davis High School. Japanese teacher Naoko McHale and students from the DHS and UCD Japanese Clubs will be on hand to act as interpreters. Also, the Friends of Davis president, Yoshio Kobayashi, who will accompany the group to Davis, will also be able to act as an interpreter. However, he warns that even modern Japanese people cannot understand the language of the Noh Theater in that its singers use the ancient Japanese language. The Noh flute is used in the ensemble accompaniment for Kabuki music. The Noh flute creates a strong, high-pitched timbre generated by a narrower tube that is inserted inside the flute near the mouth hole. The holes of the Noh flute are covered with the middle knuckle of the finger and the player can achieve microtones by lifting the knuckle slightly from the holes. The interesting characteristic of the Noh flute is its powerful, high, surprising tone, which is often used as a signal in an ensemble when the music moves to the next phrase. The Native American flute is an instrument that is spiritual and prayerful in nature and, like the music of its Japanese counterpart, it is connected to nature. The flute at times can sound like birds twittering. It has a literal connection with trees (this flute is made out of wood) which goes all the way back to the legend of how the Native American flute came to be. The story is told in many different traditions, but one interesting version is told by Indians of Cherokee heritage. The story goes that a young man wanted to capture the attention of a beautiful girl. He was shown by a woodpecker how to make a flute: The termites would eat the wood and the woodpecker would suck out the termites, leaving holes in the tree branches. When the wind blew through the hollowed-out branches, music would sound. The young man eventually attracted the girl through the flute?s music. The Hopi Indians have their legendary flute player, Kokopeli, the hunched figure seen in countless Southwestern souvenirs. The Hopi legend tells that Kokopeli?s flute music was thought to bring fertility to those who heard it. The whole family of modern flutes will be featured with the Davis Youth and Camellia City Flute Choirs, including the traditional C flute, piccolo, alto and bass flutes, and contrabass flute. The group will perform Three Japanese Folk Songs by Bin Kaneda, arranged by Fredrick Lange. Deborah Pittman and Maquette Kuper will perform The Colors Fall, Duet for Cedar Flute and Silver Flute, from ?Spirit Horses? by James DeMars, and Deborah Pittman will improvise on a variety of Native American flutes. The concert will conclude with the Sister City Honor Band performing Robert Jager?s Esprit de Corps, Frank Techeli?s Amazing Grace, Eliott Del Borgo?s The New American Rhapsody and Robert Smith?s Gemeinhardt Suite. The last work was premiered by the Davis High School Symphonic Band in 1997 and is global in character. The first movement, Carousel, represents the world; the second movement, Telling Stories to the Sea, mimics African music and is performed by the flute choir and percussion; and the last movement, Ceremony for Flute and Drum, mimics Japanese music. The work features a solo flute performer, Maquette Kuper, who will play flute, piccolo and alto flute. Fredrick Lange, director of DHS bands, and Pete Nowlen, director of the UCD concert band, each conduct two works with the combined honor band. All tickets are $10.00 at the door. Advanced sale tickets will be available at Watermelon Music for $8.00 for adults and $5.00 for students. For further information, call (530) 756-7380. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

In addition to her jazz talents, she is a veteran performer in San Francisco musical theatre orchestras, regularly performs with the San Francisco Symphony in pop and jazz roles, and is also on faculty at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. The November 18 performance promises a full evening of exciting jazz, pairing this outstanding guest artist with the dynamic DHS Jazz Band. Featured musical selections will include Strike Up The Band, Indian Summer, Darn That Dream, Sail Away, Caravan and others. A suggested donation of $8.00 general/$6.00 senior and student/$20.00 family will be accepted at the door. Jeanette E. Natzle, Assoc.

The Rent-A-Band fundraiser has been a fixture of the DHS bands for over 26 years! People throughout Davis have hired small groups of students to provide holiday entertainment at all sorts of gatherings. If you are planning a party during the holidays, groups of students from Symphonic, Jazz and Concert Bands have practiced their holiday music, leaders are in place and groups are waiting to play at your house or your business. Consider hiring a group to entertain at a senior living center. You will be surprised at how much fun it is to delight your guests with live music. We are sending out a bigger and better sound this year with an ensemble of six to twelve students to entertain you. You may hire them for 40 minutes @$100 or $125 for one hour. Piano soloists will be available at $60.00 . Gigs are scheduled between Nov. 19 and Dec. 18. I have attached the request form to email back to me, or please contact Maki Kuper at maki.kuper at gmail.com or call me at 756-7380 to book your gig. Cheers for the holidays!
