To all parents and guardians of JTL 7th and 8th Grade Band Students:
Welcome back to J.T. Lambert! I am very fortunate to have your child as part of this year's ensembles, and I look forward to seeing them grow as musicians and students! We have plenty of fun and exciting things in store for 7th and 8th grade this year. Students that participate in JTL's band program are challenged to grow musically and encouraged to achieve their full personal potential. In the 7th and 8th Grade Bands, we will continue to develop our musicianship and collaboration skills as we work together to make music!
We have two bands that include our 7th and 8th grade students at JTL. The Symphonic Band and Concert Band meet during 9th period every other school day. These bands perform at the J.T.L. Fall Band Concert, J.T.L. Winter Band Concert, E.S.A.S.D. South Instrumental Music Department Concert, and the J.T.L. Spring Band Concert. Students study a variety of wind literature to build and refine musical concepts and techniques and develop an understanding of the music of diverse cultures, historical time periods, and prominent composers. Weekly lessons are also an integral part of our program. This critical time is used to build techniques specific to the instrument and work on rhythmic skills, tone quality, and fundamentals.
If you have any questions regarding the Seventh and Eighth Grade Bands, contact Mr. Del Vecchio.
