​​Concert Band

Ms. Woo and Mr. Garnreiter, Conductors

Mondays 9:00 - 9:25am
Tuesdays/Thursdays 9:00 – 10:20am

The JAMS Concert Band emphasis is placed on intermediate ensemble techniques as well as individual musicianship skills. Students are strongly encouraged to provide their own instruments, since school instruments are limited and generally reserved for beginning students. Performances include the annual Fall and Spring Concerts. Weekly coaching sessions are conducted for every section of the Concert Band to supplement the rehearsal instruction.
