Junior Concert Band is our youngest band as it is made up entirely of year 7 students or beginner students in year 8. This year our Junior Concert Band consists of 32 students.
Stephanie Sexton directs this band and rehearsals are held at 7.30am on a Thursday morning.
Many students who come to Chatswood High School decide to start learning an instrument when they commence year 7. These students can hire an instrument from the school. Students immediately commence lessons with a private teacher either arranged through the school or with a teacher that they know. At the same time they are integrated in to the Junior Concert Band, where they will sit alongside another year 7 student; normally a student who has already had some experience in playing the instrument.
The Junior Concert Band 2016:
will perform at our end of term music nights,
participate in a music camp at the Collaroy Conference Centre,
perform at school assemblies and
tour to Mudgee in October, participating in workshops and performing in concerts with local Primary Schools.
