Oakdale-Bohemia Middle School

8th Grade Band

 

Can you believe it....... 
Three years in OBMS and FIVE YEARS playing your instrument.

I am sure you are already seeing the incredible level you are achieving by the amount of work you have put into practicing and studying and working as a team. We are just scratching the surface of what music has to offer. I hope that even after this school year is over we will meet again and again in the world of music.

As you continue to grow as a musician and a person remember to continue to challenge yourself and to set goals. Our goals as a band continue to be the concerts but also the work we are doing in lessons. These lessons are where we focus on your individual instruments to teach the techniques that improve your playing overall. The lessons are once a week but always the same day. The period rotates each month so the class will only be missed once a month.

This link will bring you to the monthly lesson schedule.

As always our time to shine is the night of our concerts. Working and playing together is a wonderful experience, but being able to share our talents and hard work for the people we care about really makes it special. The night of the concert it is important that we sound our best but also look our best. Please remember your concert attire:

  • Boys- Black shoes, black socks, black pants, white shirt and long tie
  • Girls- Black shoes, black bottoms, white top. *Please be aware that the stage is elevated and to dress accordingly*
