HALLS HIGH SCHOOL MARCHING BAND

BOA 4
The marching band has about 20 performances scheduled each year. Students in the marching band rehearse during the school day for 90 minutes and twice a week after school for two hours. This ensemble provides students with the opportunity to continue study music and grow as performers. This course focuses on the development of individual and group performance skills. Individual practice, after-school practice and group rehearsal sessions are required.
