Band Classes
FOR STUDENTS WITHOUT PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE
Almost all of the students that come to Belzer Middle School and choose to be in band HAVE NOT had experience playing an instrument. That is no problem! The teachers will teach you how to put your instrument together, how to hold it properly, and how to play it. Along with that, we will teach you how to read music! We will give you all the tools you need, you just need to know what instrument you want to play.
If you fit into this category, you will continue into our Beginning Band class!!
