We are excited to offer our very own Stallion Sticks Percussion Ensemble at HTES for the spring semester. Students participating in the Ensemble do not need any prior musical experience. Students will explore ensemble playing techniques using classroom instruments such as xylophones, drums, recorder, and small percussion. The course will focus on playing in an ensemble, reading musical notation, beat, and rhythm. STUDENTS DO NOT NEED TO PURCHASE AN INSTRUMENT. There will be no auditions for this group.
