Wind Ensemble

​

The Wind Ensemble is considered the "varsity" level concert band at Mead HS.  Students entered into this ensemble through an audition process that takes place in April or May of each year.

​

Emphasis will be placed on performance of high quality concert band literature available and development of advanced ensemble and individual playing techniques.  This is a performance-based class and the “team” concept is of utmost importance.  As such, attendance is required for all events that involve Wind Ensemble students many of which, take place outside the school day.  Students must be able to commit to this course for a complete school year and are subject to re-audition as needed.
