Try all the instruments before you decide! 

There will be an event in April where all students will have the opportunity to try all the band & orchestra instruments! We call this process an "instrument fitting." At the conclusion of the fitting, we will have a recommendation for each student on what instrument would be appropriate to choose. It is FREE, will take approximately 15 minutes, and you will be AMAZED by your ability to play an instrument. 

Your instrument recommendations will determine if you join the band or orchestra class.

How do I get an instrument?

Please DO NOT buy an instrument from the internet. You might accidentally end up with a poor-quality instrument. Poor-quality instruments are actually harder to play. If you decide to play an band instrument, Mr. Peloza will help your family members acquire an instrument. Renting an instrument from a trustworthy music company is highly recommended. 

A High-Quality instrument will allow your student to make High-Quality music! 

PARENTS: Please read the "Why Rent?" document to find out more information.
