If you have piano experience, this is a great place for you!
Aspiring percussionists must attend the instrument petting zoo event in the spring so you can officially be evaluated for percussion aptitude!
Percussion: Limited Availability!
Students will learn the exciting worlds of both mallets (xylophone, bell kits, marimbas, etc) and beginner level battery and auxiliary percussion (snare drum, bass drum, cymbals, triangle, tambourine).
--> A common misconception: Students will not learn to play drum SET in beginner band. Percussionists can play drum set in jazz band in their second/third years of band! But, if students are searching for information about drum set only, you can find drum set lessons around town at a weekly rate. Email band directors if you need help, but we only offer concert percussion opportunties at the middle school level!
