My Project

Our over 140 musicians in our band are hard working, motivated, and committed to excellent music making! They constantly push us as directors to find new and challenging music that meets their abilities and pushes them to grow.

We are working on updating our inventory of mutes, which are made to alter the sounds of primarily our brass students to create specific unique sounds needed for a wide rang of the music we play.

Jazz ensemble, concert band, and marching band music often calls for the use of these mutes, and our current inventory is mostly unusable due to age and damage.

Our students are constantly working to push the boundaries of what they can do musically, and your support will help them to achieve their musical goals as an ensemble!

Mr. Siegrist will only receive his materials if this project is fully funded by August 6.
