Symphonic Band
The Symphonic Band is the primary performing ensemble of the Sabino Band program. Students in the Symphonic Band participate in both a year-round concert ensemble and in marching activities (on some days) during the fall. This course helps students develop essential skills for successful ensemble performance and covers important concepts for better understanding of music theory, music history, and the cultural appreciation of different types of music. Students enrolled in the course participate in various marching activities in the fall, concert festivals and competitions in the spring, and are eligible to participate in various university, regional, and state honor bands. The Symphonic Band performs appropriate but challenging concert band literature at least once each quarter. The course fee for Symphonic Band is $50.
