SYMPHONIC BAND is the primary performing group at Sun Valley HS. This group meets daily and is comprised of all musicians enrolled in the band program at Sun Valley HS. The symphonic band is made up of 9th-12th members. This class setting offers the students opportunity to rehearse and perform a variety of literature written for concert and symphonic band. Much of the class time is devoted to developing proper warm up, practice, and performance techniques, with an emphasis on ensemble performance. In addition, specific aspects of music theory are incorporated into the instruction throughout the year. Individual performance is evaluated through playing tests and written examinations. There are usually three major performances per year, one of which may be the South Central District’s MPA (Music Performance Assessment), held in March or April.
“Concert Black AND White” is our performance attire and is as follows:
- Male students – White Polo or White Button Down, Black Slacks, Black Dress Shoes
- Female students – Black Dress, or equivalent of male dress code, Black Flats, Heels, or Dress Shoes. If they do want want to wear a dress, ladies are asked ot default to the “Male” dress code.
