Beginning Band

Beginning Band is an exciting course designed for students with little to no prior music experience. Students will start their musical education in small group sessions, allowing for personalized attention and tailored instruction with other students learning their same instrument. This setting ensures that each student can gain confidence and competence on their chosen instrument before being placed in a large ensemble. As they advance, students will come together in the full band, experiencing the joy and camaraderie of making music as part of a larger ensemble.

​ 

Throughout the course, students will work towards two performance opportunities–the GCHFA Winter and Spring Concerts–where they can showcase their newly acquired skills. These performances are designed to be supportive and encouraging, offering students a chance to celebrate their progress and share their achievements with family and friends.

 

It required that students simultaneously participate in Music Theory I. Those with previous theory experience may take a placement test to find the most appropriate level for them. Be sure to add it to your cart when enrolling!
