Fremd Wind Ensemble
The Wind Ensemble (C357-01) consists of sophomore, junior, and senior students.  The Wind Ensemble is Fremd’s second uppermost level of concert band.  The ensemble performs outstanding upper level band repertoire expecting the highest level of performance.  Due to the technical demands of the programmed music, it is assumed and highly recommended that each student studies privately.  Students are expected to practice extensively every week to meet the demands of the literature being programmed.  Failure to meet the demands of each instrument section will result in grade deduction and possible removal from the Wind Ensemble.  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, November “Solo and Ensemble Festival”, April Illinois State University Concert Band Festival (Saturday), May Graduation Band performance (non-Seniors), Pep Band performances (4), semester concert review presentation (2), sectional attendance, and other possible performances/festivals as determined by the band directors. Additional grading requirements are listed later in this handbook.  The band is directed by Mr. Teichert and meets daily during 2nd period.
