BNS band is excited to enter its 6th year at BNS. Band is open to all students K - 5th, irrespective of ability to pay. Your child(ren) is(are) guaranteed a spot in next year’s band if you register your child(ren) by June 30, 2023. Please register now.
We are excited to offer Music Literacy classes for the first time, in response to parent requests. In Music Literacy we will focus on learning to read music and understand how music works. We will play music literacy games, write and play music, and do various exercises that will provide ear training, and help us learn to read notes on the staff both in treble and bass clef. We will learn how sounds are represented on paper, what intervals are and how they sound, and how we can represent our musical ideas on a staff with written notes.
Music literacy will be offered to children in grades 1-5 on Thursday, pending registration. The first lesson will be on Thursday, October 5th. All children in band must register for aftercare, and that link will be made available in the fall.
