Qualifications

         

              In order to become a member of the William Byrd High School Band, each student should have some experience on his/her instrument.  Each student will audition to determine what group the student should enter.  Recommendation of the student’s director may be accepted instead of auditions. 

             Each student is expected to know a chromatic scale and a minimum of seven major scales by memory.  Additional requirements will be added from year to year in order to retain membership status.
