After School Online Band Program

Missing BAND?  Looking for a chance to play your instrument with others and learn new music?

Want to keep up your Band skills - even if you do NOT have Band in school?

Thanks to generous support of the E. Murray and Edna Forbes Foundation, the SBA is offering an after-school program for Band students who are missing Band and playing their instrument.  

Filling the gaps in band programming resulting from COVID -19, the After School Online Program will provide:

• Top quality instruction from our SBA Clinician Bureau team
• 7 weeks of 1 hour online sessions [no session during Feb Holiday Week]
• A combination of ensemble and semi-private instruction
• SmartMusic accounts - ensuring each participant has access to the same method books and online resources no matter where they live!
• The ability to easily record and submit practice work between sessions & receive instructor feedback
• opportunity to participate in a Virtual Ensemble Performance concert
• Most importantly - a chance to PLAY your instrument! 

The program will be delivered entirely online with one virtual class/session per week for each program age group.  Participants must have at least 1 year of experience in Band or on their instrument.  The

Grade 7/8 Woodwinds & Brass will meet on Wednesdays from 4:45-5:45

Grade 9/10 Woodwinds & Brass will meet on Thursdays from 4:45 - 5:45pm

Grade 7/8/9/10 Percussion [snare drum] will meet only on Thursdays from 4:45-5:45pm.

Special additional sessions MAY be added or encouraged, depending on group need and interest.

The total cost to register is ONLY $65.00 for the entire 7 week program and includes SmartMusic accounts!  By comparison, this is less than the cost as just ONE private lesson and a SmartMusic account.
