"NEW" Music Electives!  Two new music electives were just approved for the 2019-20 school year.  They are:

1)  INSTRUMENTAL TECHNIQUES A half year (semester-long) class that consists of many facets; private practice time, solo coaching, technique building, pedagogical information about your instrument, OMEA Solo & Ensemble preparation, viewing videos of masterclasses on your instrument, etc...  This class is "supervised" rather than taught per se!  ALL band members should be willing to take at least one semester.

2)  SYMPHONIC WINDSA year long "advanced" band or wind ensemble experience focusing on one player per part.  The Symphonic Winds will perform music of a more difficult nature.  Students are accepted by either recommendation and/or audition.  Prerequisite:  Participation in Concert Band.
