Concert Band

The concert band at Fitch High School is open to all students who play a wind or percussion instrument. A focus is placed on the development of intermediate/advanced performance based skills to build and strengthen an independent musician. Musical comprehension will be developed through the study of music theory, historical/cultural contexts, performance practice, and evaluation techniques. Students will gain the knowledge and skills to perform, create and respond within a multitude of musical situations. Repertoire will cover music from the Renaissance through twentieth century, and include pieces by leading composers of wind ensemble literature.
