The Los Osos Symphonic Band


The Symphonic Band is comprised of approximately 55 student musicians, performs a variety of wind band literature, and rehearses and performs during both semesters of the school year (August – May).  This ensemble is designed primarily as a training group, and is mostly comprised of underclassmen and a few industrious juniors and seniors who desire to start on a second instrument or wish to better themselves by playing for an additional hour daily.  The group is also designed for those students who cannot make the time commitment required to participate in the zero period (before school) bands.

PREREQUISITE:   

This is an open-enrollment class.  No audition is required for placement into the Symphonic Band.  Students of all grade levels and playing abilities are welcome to participate.  Contact Mr. Andress at losososbands@hotmail.com if you wish to have Symphonic Band added to your class schedule.
