Symphonic Winds

The premiere performing symphonic ensemble at CHS, students in Symphonic Winds perform on an advanced level and should expect extra practices and performances. They consistently perform Grade 6 music, with a strong emphasis on technique, interpretation, and musical understanding.   Designed for "dedicated" music students who enjoy performing, students are required to be in the Mighty Marching Chargers.  After-school rehearsals are required at times during the year.

Concert Band

Concert Band students receive an intense study of band literature, requiring regular class study and after school rehearsals. In 1998-99, the Concert Band performed at the Grade 5 level, a first at CHS.  With both public performances and festivals, members are also encouraged to participate in the Mighty Marching Chargers.
