Concert Bands

​Congratulations to our Concert Bands for receiving straight superior scores at this years BYU Music Festival. We are sad these fine ensembles did not get to perform for the state festival but are proud of the great music and memories they have made together this year!
Davis High Bands have 3 concert band ensembles students may be a part of the Concert Band (mostly made up of sophomores), Symphonic Band, and Wind Ensemble (auditioned group). Audition music for Wind Ensemble is always the most recent try out music from All State available at umea.us and is included below. ​Percussion Ensemble also plays concert literature and participates in PAS, as well as region and state festivals. Students need a well rounded background in percussion including mallets/piano to be successful in this class. 

If you are interested in auditioning for Wind Ensemble please email Mr. Crookston a microokston@dsdmail.net. Generally sophomores are not taken in Wind Ensemble unless your instrument is in need. If auditioning, please prepare the music as listed below, and when you are ready you may send the recording of yourself to microokston@dsdmail.net. It is recommended when sharing video files to save it to a cloud based storage like "OneDrive," "Icloud," or "Google Drive" and then simply email the shareable link. If doing this please check your settings that others have permission to view your link. 

​To avoid scheduling delays auditions are due May 15th. Priority will be given to students who audition in the time frame given. If percussion students do not have the books listed below please simply perform an excerpt that demonstrates your technical and musical abilities on snare drum and mallet instruments.
