Symphonic Band

Open to students in grade 10-12, this course focuses on the development of performance skills for the advancing high school wind instrumentalist.  Along with further skill development, students have the opportunity to study more advanced wind and percussion literature and related areas in the subject of music theory and history.  While all students are required to participate in additional school related performances throughout the year, members are strongly encouraged to audition for All-Southern and All-State organizations and to prepare music for the Solo and Ensemble festival. Opportunities for several other honor bands exist and the performance expectations are very high. A variety of concert related experiences are available each term.
