    THE SIS BAND PROGRAM

    This band is primarily comprised of 7th graders. The focus of the Concert Band is to further develop the skills learned in Elementary Band.

  • CADET BAND
    This band is comprised of woodwind and brass instruments and is designed for beginning students and students switching instruments. Students in this ensemble perform by themselves and with the Concert Band at several concerts throughout the year.

  • JAZZ ENSEMBLE
    This group is comprised of 7th and 8th graders by audition only. The jazz ensemble rehearses after school on Wednesdays from early October until the end of April. Students in this group perform several times a year and enjoy other activities such as the New Trier Jazz Festival in February and the Elementary School Tour in April.
