Instrument Care & Supplies

Each student needs a band method book. We will be switching method books this year, simply because the online interactive features are so much better for this one. Make sure to purchase the book for your child's instrument. (The images below are the flute books for each method.) Each child also needs a 1" binder with sheet protectors for class, a music stand for home practice, and a name tag (luggage type is best) for his or her instrument case.

In addition, here are lists of recommended supplies for each wind instrument:

Flute

Clarinet

Saxophone

Trumpet

Trombone

Tuba

Percussionists have both simpler and more complex needs. For most middle school percussionists, you just need to handle your instruments carefully and ask for help if something isn't working.
