Concert Band

The Concert Band is the entry-level performing ensemble at Pine Tree High School. Students in this ensemble display a skill level that is still developing into maturity, showing a need for more individual practice and understanding of key concepts.  All of the high school directors are present during this class so that extra attention is given.  This class meets during second semester sixth period.

REQUIREMENTS
  • Students in the Concert Band will prepare and present multiple concerts per year, as notated in the Pine Tree Band Calendar
  • Students in the Concert Band will participate in before/after school sectionals, as determined by the Directors
  • Students in the Concert Band will prepare the TMEA Region materials.
  • Students in the Symphonic Band will participate in the UIL Concert and Sight-Reading Contest
  • Students in the Symphonic Band will prepare a solo or small ensemble

EVALUATION
Everyday is an audition – students will be evaluated daily on their individual musical skills and personal contributions to the ensemble. Formal playing assessments will be held regularly via live playing.

AUDITIONS
Students will audition for the concert ensembles in May of the Spring semester. The audition process includes selections from etudes, chromatic scale and twelve major scales. All students who audition and fulfill the minimum competencies will become part of the Pine Tree High School band program. All band students, regardless of concert ensemble assignment, will also participate in the Pine Tree marching band, The Pride.
