For the first two weeks in April, your band student has the opportunity to play on some advanced instruments provided to us by Beacock Music.
As an educator I am excited about this because it will give your student a chance to see and hear what it is like to play on a better instrument. Our students work hard to make good music and to bring a sense of pride and accomplishment to themselves and our band program. At this point in time the beginning level instrument your child is playing could be limiting their progress.
Here is a letter that will go out to parents when the instruments arrive.
Sometimes an instrument upgrade may be out of the budget. Another way to assist your student musician in their progress is to upgrade their mouthpiece.
