Fremd Symphonic Winds
The Symphonic Winds (C257-01) consists of promoted freshmen, sophomore, junior, and senior students. Freshmen will be placed in Symphonic Winds based on audition and possible instrumentation need. The band performs challenging band repertoire, striving for the highest level of performance. Continued emphasis is placed on music reading, counting rhythms, tone production, ensemble playing, listening, and intonation. Placement in the band is made by directors and based on musical ability. Semester band grade will include the following: homework assignments, daily participation/performance, Fremd Band concerts, performance assessments, Pep Band performances (3), semester concert review paper, and sectional attendance (one twenty-minute sectional every two weeks). Additional grading requirements are listed later in this handbook. The band is directed by Mr. Teichert and meets daily 8th period.
