Beginning Band

Grades 7 and 8

No Prerequisite

Beginning Band serves the needs of students who have never played a band instrument before and for students who need to strengthen several basic music skills.

Beginning level band classes develop skills on woodwind and brass instruments. Guidance will be given by the instructor in the selection of an instrument. Simple duets, rounds, and other ensemble literature will be performed in the class. Rehearsals and performances outside of normal school hours will be required as part of this course. Students develop skills as individual musicians and as members of a musical group. Course content includes BEGINNING LEVEL technical and ensemble skills necessary for performance. Some performance opportunities are provided. Students must supply their own instrument.

This course requires a student materials fee as listed in FCPS Notice 5922.
