Beginning Instrumental Music Ensembles
Jesuit offers multiple opportunities for students to explore Instrumental Music through beginning band and string programs. Incoming freshmen discover the world of music through hands on work with a woodwind, brass or string instrument. Students will learn music terminology, rhythmic figures and basic reading skills to further enhance this experience. Instrumental Music courses are performing groups; students are required to perform in concert venue performances twice a year.
Concert Band
This band is made up of the majority of band students at Jesuit High School. Students should have a solid command of their instrument, be able to play several major and minor scales, and have established proper playing technique.
Symphonic Band
Open only by audition, this ensemble represents the premier musicians at Jesuit High School. Symphonic Band is a varsity level performing group at Jesuit that is designated for band students with a minimum of three years of ensemble experience. This ensemble focuses on the preparation of music in a variety of types and styles for public concerts and other events, and on the development of ensemble techniques (tone, rhythmic accuracy, technical facility, articulation, intonation, blend, balance, and musical expression).
Jazz Ensemble
The award winning JHS Jazz Band has participated in many competitions and festivals through the years including the Folsom, Woodcreek, and Fullerton College Jazz Festivals.
Marauder Band
Marching Band
Since 2015 the Jesuit High School Marauder Marching Band has taken the field during football games. Membership in the Marauder Band is part of the course requirements of our Concert and Symphonic Bands. This program is designed to give students the opportunity to participate in a corps style marching band: a fun, exciting, high profile, highly disciplined group with an extensive rehearsal and performance schedule. The Marauder Band performs at all home varsity football games and serves as a pep band for home varsity basketball games, rallies, and other events.
