SENIOR BAND MONDAYS 9:15 AM--11:1515 AM (CLICK TO READ MORE)

This is our senior concert band, which plays the most challenging music. Musical selections tend to be larger, using greater instrumental range and advanced techniques. We often do medleys, which are several pages long. The pieces make use of more varied key signatures and time signatures. We use Essential Elements 3 for warm-ups and skill development. Sectional rehearsals are arranged as needed to prepare for concerts. This band performs at least twice at the end of each session (6 to 8 performances a year)

INTERMEDIATE BAND - WEDNESDAYS 9:15 AM-11:15 AM (CLICK TO READ MORE)

This program is designed for individuals looking to improve their playing skills in a group setting before joining the Senior Band. It focuses on musical development through shorter compositions that use a limited range of keys and time signatures. We use Essential Elements Book 2 for warm-ups and skill development. Sectional practices are arranged as needed to prepare for performances. New members typically join this group after completing their first year of playing. Concerts are scheduled once or twice at the end of each session, resulting in four to six high-quality performances per year.
