MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS
SCHOOL OWNED INSTRUMENTS 1. The school provides the following instruments: oboes, large clarinets, large saxophones, bassoons, mellophones, french horns, baritones, sousaphones, and percussion equipment. These instruments will be checked-out to the student by the director. 2. Check-in of all school owned instruments will follow the final marching band performance of the season and the final concert of the year. 3. If any instrument is damaged at a rehearsal or performance, the director must be notified immediately so appropriate repair can be done. If any instruments are damaged or lost, the offender will be charged for either the repair to the instrument or the replacement of that instrument. 4. All school owned instruments must be cleaned monthly and before their return by the member using the instrument. PERSONALLY OWNED INSTRUMENTS Proper care of all instruments is essential for musical success. Fine musical performance is impossible when instruments with stuck slides, bad pads, split reeds, or chipped mouthpieces are used. |
