The BHS Band Program consists of 160 students spread out over three daily classes. The Wind Ensemble is our premiere performing group. Due to the rigors of the class, membership is gained by audition only. The concert band is open to any students with prior band experience. The last class is the percussion class, which focuses on the specific techniques of playing a multitude of percussion instruments.
PARENTS, your child may feel that high school band is not for them but I want to encourage you to push them to give it a try. Marching Band is great for your child! Don’t believe me.....click here how other parents feel about it.
A Note From Mr. Birge
At Brunswick High we are aware of the limitations that covid has placed on our middle school band programs. Currently, the Jane Macon, Needwood, and Risley Middle School Bands are mandated to rehearse outside while only Glynn Middle is permitted to rehearse inside. This has resulted in many of our middle school students having a "less than desirable" middle school band experience. I want to encourage you to push your band student to try band here at Brunswick High during their freshman year. Over 95% of students who start band here in 9th grade remain in band for the duration of their high school career.
