Band

Resource

Hebron Christian Academy offers a variety of band opportunities, including beginning band, concert band, marching band, symphonic band, and praise band.

The Hebron Lions band program is made up of sixth through 12th grade students, all separated into multiple performing ensembles. These students study music fundamentals through playing woodwind, brass, or percussion instruments, while performing in an individual or ensemble setting, for numerous performances throughout the year.

The band students are provided opportunities to experience many different musical events and activities on our campus, in our community, and within our state.

For more information about our band program, please contact Chris Castner.

Upper School Band Opportunities

Beginning Band

Concert Band

This ensemble combines seventh and eighth grade students. We build on the foundations, scale development, tone production, and rhythm building that were learned as sixth-grade musicians, and further develop the skills necessary for performing at the Christmas Concert, LGPE (Large Group Performance Evaluation), and several seasonal concerts, all in ensemble performance settings. Each concert offers an opportunity for students to perform a varied selection of music, which provides them the ability to address all aspects of music, such as tone quality, intonation within the ensemble, proper technique, balance within the ensemble and different sections, and their overall musicality.

Marching Band

The Marching Lions at Hebron act as the face of our instrumental music program. This is a group of seventh through 12th grade band and color guard members who prepare a custom field show to be performed at football games and band competitions. All members attend our marching band camp prior to the start of each school year, and then we have multiple practices per week.

Symphonic Band

This ensemble is offered for our ninth through 12th grade students. The primary goal for the symphonic band is to further develop each student’s individual and ensemble skills, while preparing for a variety of concerts throughout the year, including the Christmas, spring, and LGPE performances. Each concert offers an opportunity for students to perform a diverse selection of music that allows them to focus on all aspects of music, such as tone quality, intonation within the ensemble, proper technique, balance within the ensemble and different sections, and our overall musicality. Another important aspect of the Symphonic band is to prepare high school students with the ability to incorporate music into their lives once they graduate, whether it be in pursuing instrumental music in college or any area of their lives after high school.

Praise Band

The HCA praise band is made up of students who are able to develop their ability to manage their musical instruments in performance and rehearsal settings for worship applications. They gain experience with their instruments while learning basic concepts in music theory. In addition to this, and arguably, more importantly, students gain experience in leadership. They are given opportunities to develop their leadership skills, which will help them develop their own style, both musically and beyond.
