​

Concert and Symphonic Band members are expected to play in just one of these two bands, attending both the band and section rehearsals of their selected band. Certain exceptions may be made, at the invitation of the conductors, to meet critical needs of a band. Members may switch from the Concert to the Symphonic Band or vice versa at any time.  

​

Several times each year, the Concert and Symphonic Bands rehearse together and perform a joint concert.

​

Note: For the Fall, 2022, semester the Concert and Symphonic Bands will be rehearsing and performing as one, that is the Full Band.  This is due to lower than normal enrollment due to Covid.
