5th Grade Edina Band and Orchestra Teachers
The Edina Band and Orchestra program starts in 5th grade and is open to all students. Fifth grade band and orchestra classes meet during the school day and are free of charge. Students attend one small group lesson and one large ensemble rehearsal each week. Our program is an introduction to the unique performing and travel opportunities available at the middle and high school level. Your child’s decision to join us is the first step towards achieving the many personal benefits of playing a musical instrument.
Please contact the teacher at your child's school if you have any questions about the process.
