Band

Concert Band

This select ensemble provides students with learning and performance opportunities that focus on musical experiences within the concert band and marching band media. Areas of emphasis will be comprehensive musicianship (including rhythmic drill, vocalization strategies, and theory concepts) and critical thinking (including listening, aural evaluation, and written response). Course standards are based on the National Standards for Music Education.

Students are required to attend  “Band Camp” during a week in August from 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. In addition, one two-hour evening rehearsal per week during football season and all performances by the band require mandatory attendance.
