Programming
Here is the music planned for the 2011-2012 season. We hope you like it!
We’ve purchased new music based on requests from band members. We’ve scheduled some “new to the band” pieces that we have in our library. We’ll add a few marches and jazz pieces. But what you see here is the core of the program for the year.
You’ll get the music two weeks before the first rehearsal so that you can come fully prepared so that we can concentrate on musicality.
