Frequently Asked Questions

Below are some of the frequently asked questions about our Band Program. If you have further questions, please contact our Student Services Representatives at [email protected].

How do I choose between Elementary Band and Intermediate Band?

Students with 0-1 year of playing experience should join Elementary Band. Students with 2-3 years playing experience should join Intermediate Band. Most students who took band with us this year should proceed to Intermediate Band.
How do I choose an instrument?
There are a few ways to figure out the right instrument (or instruments!) for you.
- Talk to your school music teacher. They will probably have some good advice for you.
- Attend Wide Open House. You'll have the chance to learn more about the instruments and ask questions of our Faculty.
- Sign up for our Summer Band Camp. This one-week camp is a great introduction to both music and learning in an ensemble environment.
- Register for a trial lesson. Visit us in person at 273 Bloor Street West and talk to one of our Student Service Representatives. You can also contact us at [email protected] or at 416-408-2825.
