Audience Etiquette Guide

All of our concerts at Lamar are recorded. In order to have a clean recording, and to show the proper respect for the performers and your fellow audience members, please observe the following:

Applause is not appropriate between the movements of a musical selection. If the performers stop to adjust their music or if the conductor's arm remains lifted, the musical selection is not over even though the music has paused.

When the lights are turned out in the foyer, it is time for the performance to begin. Keep your communication in the darkened foyer to a whisper.

All cell phones must be turned off before entering the auditorium. Do not text or use other electronic devices during the performance.

If you arrive late or must leave during the performance, please enter or exit the auditorium only between musical selections. However, we ask that you remove fussy or loud children as quickly and quietly as possible.

Polite applause is appropriate when the Conductor, Concert Master, or Concert Mistress enters the stage and at the conclusion of each musical selection.

Whistling and cheering are not appropriate in a formal concert setting.

Complete attention should be directed to the performance. Talking, whispering and unnecessary movement should be avoided during the performance.

Thank you for observing Audience Etiquette.

We hope you enjoy the evening!

Please turn off cell phones before entering the auditorium. Do not text or use other electronic devices during the performance. Thank you!

Orchestra Ensembles

Students in the Lamar Orchestras are among the most intelligent, dedicated, and respected students at Lamar. They are involved in many activities other than orchestra such as the National Honor Society, Football, Tennis, Swimming, Basketball, Cross Country, Wrestling, Choir, Theater, Student Council, Ready Set Teach, Cheerleading, Band, etc.

Very often, the Viking Orchestra boasts multiple seniors ranked in the top 12 of their class. Besides preparing for concerts and UIL Orchestra Contest, the orchestra students participate in the UIL Solo-Ensemble Contests, the All-Region and All-State audition process, and perform throughout the community.

Lamar Band Ensembles

THE PRIDE OF LAMAR — THE VIKING MARCHING BAND

The Viking Marching Band is one of the most visible and successful groups on our campus. They perform at all varsity football games, pep rallies, and other events throughout the community. During the concert season the members of the marching band audition and perform as the Wind Symphony, Symphonic Band, and Concert Band. In addition, they participate in the UIL Solo & Ensemble competition, All City Band, All Region Band, Jazz Band and Symphony Orchestra, and All State Bands and Orchestras. Besides being involved in musical endeavors, members of the Viking Band are very active in other areas of LHS where they are involved in virtually every club and organization offered at Lamar High School. The philosophy of the Viking Marching Band is to perform at each individual’s best every time they step on the performance field. The sense of Tradition, Dedication, Determination, Discipline and Pride is expected from every member of the organization. The Viking Marching Band has truly earned the name: THE PRIDE OF LAMAR.
