Why should you/your student join band?
We, the band teachers, LOVE band. Obviously...we might be biased. But there are some great reasons to join band, benefits you can only get from band specifically.
We get to create music, using only our tools (instruments) and the air around us! It enhances the human experience, and educates the “whole child,” offering them a unique creative outlet.
Band is fun, it is not easy, and it teaches perseverance.
Instant gratification, which we love!
We work many parts of the brain at once!
Physical coordination
Reading comprehension
Creative expression
Awareness of surroundings
Band is a safe space for all.
Life skills: team work, discipline, patience, respect, concentration, and so many more!
