Choosing an Instrument

The band is split up into instrument sections. Some sections are large like the trumpets or clarinets. Other sections can be as small as one player like the oboe. Choosing your instrument is important. When testing instruments band directors look for many factors like musical aptitude and body composition to help narrow down the selection process. After instrument testing at WJMS you will be asked to narrow down your top 3 instruments you would like to learn. With careful consideration and balancing you are assigned a section to begin your musical journey!
