Placement in our concert ensembles is determined through an annual, competitive audition process that allows students to be placed in an ensemble that matches their current skill level. Each group performs in two parades annually, as well as at our Holiday and Spring Concerts, showcasing their progress and musicianship throughout the year.
Concert band plays a central role in the high school music experience, offering students the chance to develop as individual musicians and collaborative performers through the study of fundamentals, music literacy, tone production, ensemble balance, and expressive performance.
