Band I:  Beginning Band - Periods 1 & 2

The Beginning Band course is designed for students who desire to begin playing a woodwind, brass, or percussion instrument for performance in an ensemble for an   audience.  The course will include care of an instrument, correct posture, correct carriage, correct embouchure, breath development and control, tone production, intonation, phrasing, articulation, musical terminology, dynamics, and fingerings.  Students will study basic musical forms, and will play and listen to different types of musical compositions.  Instruments will be provided by the school and within reason, students will be allowed to play instruments of their choice.  Mouthpieces, reeds, accessories, and books are at the expense of the students.
