Symphonic Band and Concert Band Members: Don't forget about ScaleFEST Week 1. On Thursday or Friday of this week each person will play the Concert B-flat Scale. Remember that the scale must be from memory. Good luck!
Welcome to the official blogspot for the Hewitt-Trussville Middle School Band located in Trussville, Alabama. This blog will be updated often with information about our band program. Be sure to add this link to your favorites and check back often!
“Music is exciting. It is thrilling to be sitting in a group of musicians playing (more or less) the same piece of music. You are part of a great, powerful, vibrant entity. And nothing beats the feeling you get when you've practiced a difficult section over and over and finally get it right. (yes, even on the wood block.) Music is important. It says things your heart can't say any other way, and in a language everyone speaks. Music crosses borders, turns smiles into frowns, and vice versa. These observations are shared with a hope: that, when schools cut back on music classes, they really think about what they're doing - and don't take music for granted."
The Hewitt-Trussville Middle School Band is made up of over 260 students in grades 6-8. We are located in Trussville, Alabama. The band is under the direction of Mr. Brandon Peters, Mrs. Stephanie Ezell, and Mr. Scott Waid.
