This is a Grade 9 ONLY band meant to welcome our new music students into the HHHS music family! Students will meet every other day during the regular timetable (this counts as a Grade 9 option class) and will work on building your musical talents with the aim of joining the Senior Concert Band in Grade 10. We will focus on tone, intonation and technique, as well as having a whole lot of fun. Grade 9s have the opportunity to attend Grade 9 Band Camp at the Banff Centre of the Performing Arts. PLEASE NOTE - this course is for students who are currently in a Grade 8 music program. If you would like to be in band but have no experience, please check out Intro to Band 9! Limited numbers of instruments are available to rent through the school on a first come, first served basis. Please watch your emails in August for details about a Parent Information/Rental Night at the end of August.
