Dobie Middle School Bands

 

We offer three band classes at Dobie Middle School:
Beginning Band, Symphonic Band, and Wind Ensemble. After School Programs: Drumline


 

Beginning Band

Beginning band is the first opportunity students have to join our program. No prior musical experience is needed. We teach our students how to play an instrument and everything they need to know about the fundamentals of music. The beginning band is composed of mostly 6th grade students who are learning to play an instrument for the first time. Beginning band classes meet every other day in like-instrument classes. There will occasionally be after school rehearsals to prepare for concerts. Students will perform together as one group/band at our annual Dobie Band Winter and Spring concerts.

Symphonic Band

The Symphonic Band is made up of 7/8th graders and serves as our intermediate band. They meet every other day as a full band. Students are required to attend one sectional per week to help them learn their music and to work on fundamentals. The Symphonic Band performs at the Dobie  Winter Concert, Pre-UIL Contest, and Spring concert. The Symphonic Band works hard on refining fundamentals. Students are encouraged to participate in Solo and Ensemble Contest in the Spring. All students are encouraged to take private lessons.
