IMPORTANT:

Wind Symphony Roster for 2017-18 has been posted. ALL members of Wind Symphony are expected to go on the New York trip to perform in Carnegie Hall during the week of March 26 - 31. If your family cannot commit to this performance event FOR ANY REASON, you must notify the band directors before Friday May 12th so that roster adjustments can be made.

The trip is still in the formative stages... we do not have exact dates/cost. Estimates are 4 days sometime between March 26-31 and cost between $2000-$2500. We do need to lock in a number of participants with the sponsoring company very soon in order to secure tickets to a Broadway Show and to get hotel rooms blocked. More info to follow as details get finalized.

Band Registration is now available online. Click here for information and to register for the 2017–18 school year!

---- Alan C. Pope High School Bands Mission Statement

The band program at Pope is founded on the philosophy that every student has a place as a participant and as a performer. Competition is not the goal; rather, it is a means of improving our own past levels of performance. Achievement is measured through our continued participation in a variety of music-related activities, and through the student's development of life-long skills with music as the common factor.
