Concert
Bands

The Woodmont Concert program helps students enhance their fundamental playing skills, understand music theory, and develop as musicians. Our concert bands are divided into two ability-based ensembles: the Symphonic Band and the Symphony. Each traditional band performs two concerts, one at beginning and one at the end of the semester, and participates in the Concert Performance Assessment (CPA) in the spring. Students can also audition for All County and All Region Honor Bands, as well as Solo & Ensemble. Concert Band provides a fantastic opportunity to through music while collaborating with a remarkable group of students!

*Year-Long participation is expected.

Marching Band

A combination of music and athletics Marching band is the most visible ensemble of the Woodmont bands. Every summer we learn a field production to show off our musical, and physical abilities. Your student will learn the fundamentals of marching, music, and dance to entertain large crowds at marching competitions across the Upstate.
The Marching Band is made up of musicians and non-musicians. These students dedicate their talents and energies into performing exciting shows. These shows are performed at Football games, and Saturday competitions. We plan participate in 4-5 competitions through September and October. Exact dates are TBD.
We rehearse 3 days a week from 4:00-6:30pm and have a 2 week band camp before the start of school. If you are interested in joining a wonderful group of students and a wonderful group of supporting staff and parents, contact Mr. Schooley!

*Fall Season

Winter Percussion

Winter Percussion is a competitive indoor performing arts activity that combines music, marching, and theatrical elements, focusing exclusively on the percussion section. Performed by a battery (marching drums) and a front ensemble (pit) groups present 5–7 minute shows in gyms that feature complex musical arrangements, choreographed movement, and thematic storytelling enhanced by props, costumes, and backdrops.

These shows are judged based on musical performance, visual execution, and overall effect, with competitions held at local, regional, and national levels—most notably by Winter Guard International (WGI). Winter Percussion offers percussionists a unique opportunity to showcase their skills in a creative, high-energy environment during the marching band off-season.

This is an audition based ensemble. We welcome all musicians to audition for this ensemble. This ensemble practices from December - April

Winter Guard

Winter Guard is a competitive indoor performing arts activity that combines dance, choreography, and equipment work using flags, rifles, sabres, and props to tell a visual story. Performed in gyms, each group presents a 4-5 minute themed show set to music, incorporating expressive movement and theatrical design with costumes, backdrops, and floor tarps to enhance the narrative.

Shows are judged on visual performance, equipment skills, choreography, and overall effect.Unlike traditional color guard, which performs with a marching band, Winter Guard offers a focused and creatively expansive opportunity for colorguard performers to grow as artists during the indoor season.
