Please share this information:
The St. Pius X Catholic high school bands would like to invite your student to become a member of our middle school advanced band.
The advanced band is geared towards students who have at least a year’s worth of experience playing an instrument. This group plays on all of our St. Pius Band Program concerts on its own and in conjunction with our high school band students.
This is a great opportunity for middle school band students to garner additional practice time outside of their school band program, to meet other instrumental students from around the Atlanta area and to play together in a high-performing ensemble.
Rehearsals for the 2025-26 school year will begin on Wednesday, September 10. Please register below, and reach out to SPX Band Director, Ian LaBreck (ilabreck@spx.org), if you have any questions.
