Band

Band students will learn to play one of the following instruments:

  • Flute
  • Clarinet
  • Trumpet
  • Trombone
  • Baritone
  • Tuba
  • Percussion

The band program includes instruction in sight reading, performance skills and musical theory, and beginning band students participate in at least two concerts, one band festival, and perform a solo.

We reward hard work and good behavior at Sadler Means YWLA, so each semester band students are invited to go on a field trip. These trips include ice skating in the fall and Austin's Park and Pizza in the spring!
