Music Programs at ESOMS

Music making at ESOMS is all about community. Students are encouraged to try out many music making opportunities to enrich their learning.

BAND - There are three grade-level concert bands (grade 6, grade 7, grade 8) which students can participate in. These classes occur during the school day during four scheduled classes.

JAZZ BAND - There are 4 grade-level jazz bands practicing and performing together this year.

CHOIR - Choirs rehearse twice per cycle. Students in choir will sing a variety of music, and will expand their music-making skills by learning how to make music as members of a community. 

VOCAL JAZZ - Vocal Jazz groups SO Vocal and HAWKapella practice and perform throughout the school year.

FIDDLE  - There are a variety of opportunities for students to learn and enjoy fiddle music. Each ESOMS classroom receives one period of fiddle instruction each school day cycle.

INCREDIBOWS - A group of fiddling performers in grades seven and eight, who practice and perform together. Grade six fiddle students at a more advanced level may be invited to join Incredibows in the third term of the school year. This group will meet twice during each school cycle.
