Welcome to our third band rehearsal! You will need your instruments and your devices. Today we will be rehearsing our teacher selected pieces, discussing our student selected piece, discussing Western Region Band, getting information on Orchestra and Jazz Band, discussing the lesson schedule, and rehearsing our music. There is a TON to do. We will need to be purposeful to get it all done.
