Performing Band

The Performing Band is open to any student who plays a wind instrument through an audition process and aims to develop understanding and appreciation of the musical art form through the performance of quality band literature. This class is designed to extend the individual contribution of band students to the advanced level. Through increased sophistication in understanding and advanced technical skill, students will be challenged with some of the most difficult and representative literature available to the band medium. Students will have not only the aesthetic experience of making music, but also the rewards intrinsic to any type of performance. In addition to the study of band literature students will learn major, minor and chromatic scales, arpeggios, rhythmic exercises, and sight-reading.
