The
Jensen Beach High School Concert Band and Symphonic Band are made up of wind and
percussion students in grades 9 – 12.
These ensembles have
consistently received Superior ratings and given numerous community
performances since the opening of Jensen Beach High School in
2004.
Members of the Concert Band
and Symphonic Band have been selected for honor
bands, such as All-State ensembles, Florida State University's
Tri-State Festival, the University of South
Florida’s Festival of Winds, the University of Miami’s Honor Band
and various other district honor ensembles.
The
band’s list of repertoire consists of pieces from Classical to
Pops and the main focus of the ensemble is to develop the
student’s abilities to listen, perform, and appreciate wind band
music.
In 2008, JBHS received
its first Otto J. Kraushaar award from the Florida Bandmaster's
Association. The Kraushaar award is given to bands that
receive STRAIGHT Superior ratings at every FBA Assessment
throughout the year.
