RECORDER

Students in Grades 2-5 who have never read music or played an instrument before are encouraged to register for our Recorder class. 

The recorder is an excellent instrument on which to learn the basics of music theory and breath engagement, in preparation for traditional band instruments.
The cost of method book and recorder is approximately $20.

BEGINNER BAND

Students in 4th grade and up who are *brand new* to an instrument can enroll in Beginner Band.

Students must bring their own instrument, Essential Elements Band Book One, and accessories (like reeds/oil/cleaning cloths).  Mrs. Eley will advise regarding all this once the student is registered. Contact Mrs. Eley for information about renting or purchasing an instrument.

Beginner Band instrument choices:

• Flute

• Clarinet

• Trumpet

• Trombone

• Baritone Horn

• Alto Saxophone

• Bells (progresses to Snare in Semester 2)

• Oboe (please note the cost of reeds and musical ability is a factor in choosing this instrument)

CADET BAND

Students in 4th-8th grade who have *at least one year experience* on their band instrument can enroll in Cadet Band.

CONCERT BAND

Students in HIGH SCHOOL who have *at least one year experience* can enroll in Concert Band.

Our Concert Band group is supported by adult instrumentalists (friends of Miss Amy) who come and play alongside us during the concert for a wonderful full sound!

If you are an adult instrumentalist who would like to play with us, let us know! 

Students who are younger than high school age must pass an audition to play with the Concert Band.
