Welcome to WMCI Band, Choir, and Theatre Club!
I am enjoying a great year of making music with the many talented musicians in my class!
Due to COVID-19 regulations, Choir will not take place this year.
Theatre Club is also not available.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, band class will be very different from previous years. Students are not allowed to play wind instruments at school. At school, Band classes will focus on music theory, music history, and genres/styles of music. Percussion techniques will be part of each class to develop each student’s listening skills, rhythmic skills, and technical skills using body percussion, bucket drumming, cups, etc. Students are expected to continue to practice their instruments at home in order to keep up their playing skills.
All concerts and performances are currently cancelled due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Please use the drop-down pages to keep up with what is going on in Band, Choir, and Theatre Club.
