Symphonic Band

The Symphonic Band consists of 7th and 8th graders in the Riverwood Band. The Symphonic Band is under the direction of Mr. Maxey with assistance from Mr. Burleson and Ms. Jones. 

Sectionals

Symphonic band sectionals will begin right away in the Spring semester.  The schedule will be sent out before the break. Start date TBD.

Morning sectionals start at 7:00 AM and end at 7:45 AM.  

Afternoon sectionals start at 4:15 PM and end at 5:00 PM.

If a students sectional time falls during their athletics practice they are allowed to miss one day per week, but they must communicate with their coach. 

Private Lessons

It is recommended that all members of Symphonic Band take private lessons. This is the best way for students to enhance their musical knowledge and performance level, and it is a great way for them to prepare for Region Band auditions and Solo & Ensemble Festival. Most private lessons are taught at RMS or KHS, but some lesson instructors prefer to teach out of their homes. Below is a list of lesson teachers (by instrument) and their contact information. 

Paying for private lessons is the responsibility of the student and their parents.
