BATTERY ENSEMBLE
Our battery includes snares, tenors, basses, toms, and cymbals. All of these performers move around on the floor. The snare/tenor/bass/Tom 1/Tom 2 positions will have closed auditions, which means that students have either been told their part or selected for an audition pool. If there are any students who feel they would like or need an audition because they are not part of the battery, they will be considered.
