Made up of our more experienced musicians, Senior Band plays fun and challenging music that spans many genres and composers, from the beautiful melodies of classical greats like Bizet and Mendelssohn to the iconic tunes of jazz legends like Ellington and Coltrane!
If your child is in either band, please have them join the Google Classroom! They can either click the button to the right, or use the class code yokei7ue.
Newer musicians will begin their journey in Junior Band, which joins the Senior Band to form our Concert Band!
Concert Band is where all our musicians at QoA can come together and make music, from those with only a few months of experience to those who've played their instruments for years!
 Reminder: new musicians must take beginner lessons before joining Junior Band!
