Materials Needed for Class

Band members will need the following items for every rehearsal. (Some items are specific to certain instrument types.) Students are expected to come to class prepared; this is reflected in the band classroom expectations.

• A sharpened pencil
• Instrument (including sticks and/or mallets for percussionists)
• Music, folder, lyre
• Clarinets and saxophones: at least three reeds.
• Brass: valve oil
• Trombones: water bottle.
• Oboes and bassoons: at least two reeds and water canisters for soaking.
