Training Band

Monday

6.00 - 7.00pm

Grade 1+

Moorside High

The Training Band bridges the gap between the MAPAS Maestros and our Concert Band well. In this group members will learn all about what it really takes to make music as part of a group as well as having the opportunity to develop their skills further and can often be found working on and ultimately performing brilliant arrangements of music from film, TV and musical theatre. If you play a brass or woodwind instrument or are a drum kit player or percussionist then Training Band is for you.

*Please note that Training Band members are expected to be receiving a weekly individual or small group instrumental  lesson on their instrument. 

How do I join?

You can apply to join one of our groups online. Some groups welcome complete beginners but most groups do have some entry requirements (e.g. age or standard) so be sure to check which group is right for you.

Membership is only £8 per month for children and £10 per month for adults. Your MAPAS Centre membership allows you to join as many groups as you like for no additional cost (subject to meeting the entry requirements)

When do rehearsals happen?

Different groups have different rehearsal times which can all be found on their respective MAPAS Centre pages. All sessions run after the end of the school day and into the evening.

Sessions run during school term time only (there are no membership fees collected in August). A list of this year's term dates can be downloaded here.
