In band, unlike other disciplines, if the individual student has any weakness in their knowledge and/or skill ability, the entire group suffers.  In band, proper placement is critical to the success of the group, and the individual.  If students are placed in a class beyond their abilities, they often become frustrated, give up, and/or act out inappropriately.  Conversely, if students are not challenged, the results may be the same. 

The band format at BMMS is:
  1. Wind Ensemble comprised of 6th, 7th and 8th grade students, which rehearses for a 50 minute class period every day.
  2. Concert Band II, comprised of 7th and 8th grade students, which rehearses for a 50 minute class period every day.
  3. Concert Band I, comprised of 6th grade students which rehearses for a 50 minute class period five out of six school days

Emphasis is on developing top musicianship through drill in ensemble technique, musical skill, and style.  We perform quality literature, in most cases taken from the Maryland Band Directors Association list of music that is of a level of sophistication so as to be challenging as well as educationally appropriate. Students receive only one lesson every six school days in which they are pulled out on a rotating basis.  Instruction is on lesson or band material as needed.  Emphasis is on tone, intonation, and technique.  We work on individual development through the use of a lesson book, scales, and rhythm charts.

We have two Jazz Ensembles that rehearse after school from 2:45 to 3:45. The advanced ensemble rehearses on Wednesdays and the intermediate ensemble will rehearse on Wednesdays or Thursdays – exact day to be determined. 

Throughout the year, we put together many solos, duets, and ensembles that perform at the solo and ensemble festival.  We perform a winter and spring concert as well as performing at adjudications and band showcases. We receive invitations to perform at many other places and events and traditionally accept a few of these also.

Students are placed in bands by audition.
