The Hamilton High School Band Program has continually set high standards in concert band performance. Every other year the Hamilton Concert Bands receive distinguished ratings at WSMA festivals where they display technique, musicianship, and utmost class in all of their performances. The rich history of the Concert Bands includes representation at the regional and state levels.
During the first six weeks of the fall semester, all concert band students participate in marching band. After State Championships, students are placed by audition into concert band for the following school year. Hamilton consistently has a representation of students in WSMA State Honors bands and orchestras as well as regional honor groups such as UWAY, YWOWand MYSO. All Hamilton musicians also perform in the annual solo and ensemble festival, where they have a great opportunity to expand their musical horizons, while learning from those in the musical profession.
