Night band for Senior Concert Band is on Mondays from 6:45-8:30pm. David Price conducts this as well as his assistant conductor, Sabrina Brooks (sbrooks@prn.bc.ca).
Every 3 years, the Senior Band goes to Cuba. New opportunities like the Jazz Band open up in the High School, as well as new opportunities for travel and competitions.
In addition to playing music, the Senior Band has a Fun Brigade that ensures the year is full of fun and friends. Here is the big 2022 Nerf War to settle the argument once and for all whether concert band or jazz band is better!
Several of our Senior Band members have gone on to music school after Senior Band!
Senior Band also gives students a chance to develop many markatable real world skills such as leadership, communication, mentorship, teamwork, collaboration and public speaking through its mentorship partnership with the beginner band. Several events throughout the year give the Seniors a chance to share their love of music with younger students in a mutually beneficial relationship:
Rhythm Carnival:
Squeak and Squawk
Beginner Band Retreat
