The DeForest Area High School Band Program is a dynamic and comprehensive music department in DeForest, WI where every student can find their place to perform, create, and excel. We offer a full spectrum of instrumental opportunities, bridging traditional concert experiences with contemporary styles and theatrical productions.
Whether you're looking to play challenging concert literature, perform jazz classics on a city tour, provide the live music for a Broadway musical (like this year's SpongeBob SquarePants), or march during football season, the DAHS Band Program has a spot for you. We provide a high-quality musical education supported by dedicated staff, a vibrant Norski community, and the essential support of the DeForest Area Music Boosters.

Our program is built on versatile groups that perform year-round, both in the school and throughout the community.
