The Concert Band is made up of freshmen band students and meets 1st period. Primary focus of the Concert Band will be on the fundamentals of high school instrumental music both individually and through the ensemble. Emphasis is placed on music reading, counting rhythms, tone production, ensemble playing, listening, and intonation. The Concert Band will strive to help each student’s individual music proficiency and progress in the band program. Quarterly band grade will include the following: Homework assignments, concert and festival performances (as determined by the directors), dress rehearsals (if scheduled), three Pep Band games, and sectional attendance (one twenty-minute sectional every two weeks). Additional grading requirements are listed later in this handbook. The Concert Band is directed by Mr. Moore and Mr. Lang. |
