Yes You Have Homework In Band

Students,

Yes you have homework in band.  It is called practicing.  This is an expectation of all band students. Please take time to practice like we have discussed numerous times.

1. warm up with long tones/tune
2. practice technique by playing all 12 major scales
3. work on solo music for your instrument or band music.
4. find recordings of the piece you are performing and analyze the performances. 

It is expected that all band students take home their instrument over spring break and practice for our upcoming performances.  All band students will have a playing test when they come back from break. All students will be responsible for all 12 major scales and any warm up/band piece of music we have been working on in class. 

Happy Practicing,

Mr. Gibson
