Welcome Orchestra Transfers!

Dear New Students,

We understand that the cancellation of the Beginner Orchestra program on our campus may have caused some disappointment among those who were looking forward to participating. However, we are excited to extend a warm welcome to all of you who have chosen to join our band program instead.

The band program offers a fantastic opportunity for you to explore and develop your musical skills. Whether you have previous experience with an instrument or are completely new to the world of music, we have a place for you in our band family. We believe that by joining us, you will embark on a rewarding journey filled with personal growth, camaraderie, and memorable musical experiences.

To assist you in finding the right instrument that suits your interests and abilities, we have created an “instrument matching tool.” This tool will guide you through a series of questions and provide recommendations based on your preferences. We encourage you to visit www.tinyurl.com/joinnullband to access the instrument matching tool and learn more about the instrument offerings available in our band program.

At our band program, we have a wide variety of instruments for you to choose from, including brass, woodwinds, percussion, and more. Each instrument holds its unique charm and contributes to the rich tapestry of sound we create together. Whether you are drawn to the powerful resonance of a trumpet, the melodic versatility of a clarinet, or the rhythmic energy of percussion, there is a perfect match waiting for you.

We are eagerly anticipating your arrival and are excited to introduce you to the world of band music. Should you have any questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We will take care of instrument / equipment needs in the second week of school.

Once again, welcome to the band program! We can’t wait to meet you and make incredible music together.

Best regards,

Mr. Lea
Head Band Director, Null Middle School
