Lake Mary High School is excited to offer an engaging and dynamic percussion course as part of our music program. This course is dedicated to students who are passionate about percussion and looking to elevate their skills in both marching and concert settings.
What the Course Offers:
1. A Home for All Percussionists
– Our percussion course includes all students who play percussion instruments, creating a diverse and inclusive community of drummers and percussionists.
2. Audition for the Drum Line
– Students aspiring to join the elite Drum Line must go through an audition process. This not only fosters a high standard of performance but also encourages personal growth and musical excellence.
3. Dual Performance Opportunities
– During the marching season, participants will perform as part of the Marching Rams, bringing rhythmic energy and excitement to the field. In the concert season, they will be an integral part of either the Wind Ensemble or the Symphonic Band, showcasing their versatility and skill in a more formal setting.
4. Showcase Your Talent in Concerts
– The percussion course features several performances throughout the year, offering students numerous opportunities to demonstrate their talent. These concerts are a blend of energy, rhythm, and musical sophistication.
5. Participation in FBA’s Marching & Concert Band MPAs
– A highlight for our percussionists is participating in the Florida Bandmasters Association’s Marching and Concert Band Music Performance Assessments (MPAs). These events are a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students and a chance to shine among the best.
