2017 EASTERN
DIVISION CONFERENCE
Plans are WELL under way for
the 2017 Eastern Division Conference
in Atlantic City. By the time that you
receive this issue of TEMPO, Conference Registration and Hotel Information should be up on the website (www.
nafme-eastern.org). If you have never
experienced a Division Conference, you
will be thoroughly impressed. In July,
40 members of Executive Boards of
Eastern Division states met in Newark
to rank Session Proposals and Performing Ensembles. The number of applications in both areas were almost double
the amount of proposals for the last Division Conference. There are two major evening concerts – The New York
Voices, and the US Air Force Concert
Band and Singing Sergeants. Wednesday, April 5th, will be Pre-Conference
Academies. Thursday (April 6th) and
Friday (April 7th) will include a plethora of workshops in every possible area of
music education. Each day will include
a keynote address with a performance.
There is also a dedicated concert hour
each day where two bands, choruses,
orchestras, and jazz bands will present
concerts.
