Band
Beginning Band
One of the greatest gifts God has given us is music, and what better opportunity is there for a child to use that gift than to express him or herself through playing an instrument! At Zion Lutheran School, parents and students have made music a priority by virtue of the choral and the band programs as part of its curriculum. We pray your child, along with your input, considers the possibility of learning an instrument.
Beginning Band consists of weekly sectionals where students get the opportunity to learn their instrument alongside the others in the class who are learning the same instrument. This allows more individual time with students to help them learn the basics of their instrument outside of a large ensemble rehearsal.
Advanced Band
Advanced Band instruction takes place twice a week. They have frequent performances during chapel and at worship at Zion Lutheran Church. The Band performs in two full ensemble concerts each year, the Christmas Extravaganza and the Spring concert. Band members also participate in the school’s music festival in the spring, performing either a solo or with ensemble or both. Each Advanced Band member will receive one 30-minute lesson each week during the school day.
