8th graders (and some 7th graders) make up the WMS Advanced Symphonic Band. This group will represent our school both on and off campus in various events.
In this class, students will further hone skills learned in previous years, while continuing to expand their knowledge. Special thought is given to preparing them for further study in high school, should they choose to continue (and we hope they do!). Students will be encouraged to audition for various ensembles, including All-District, All-State, and community groups. Students will attend events at local high schools and perform for judges. This is really the culmination of the middle school band experience!
Practice sheets and playing test are still a part of this class. Students can join Jazz Band and/or Percussion Ensemble, as in previous years, and will also have additional opportunities and trips.
Practice Sheets available soon
