SBEC 6th Grade Band


The SBEC 6th grade band has been making huge strides this year in and out of the classroom.  The group has been working out of a new method book titled “Measures to Success” which has pushed the students to perform at a very high level.  This past week the class has been working on many new pieces that can be performed as a soloist or as a duet.  We have also introduced a new program called “Smartmusic” that they can play along with.  This program acts as an accompaniment for the student and can also show them what mistakes they are making in the piece.  The students are really buying into this new system and the results have been amazing.  The group will be performing three more times this year for the 5th grade class, 6th grade promotion, and for their big spring concert with the Jr. High Band in May.
