2022 Instrumental Enrollment

Why enroll in instrumental music?

First, consider the instruments you saw demonstrated during the Extravaganza. What instrument sounded and looked the most interesting to you. Trust your gut!
Don't remember, you can rewatch the Extravaganza at the YouTube link below.
Second, consider future instrument possibilities. We don't start all the instruments in the 6th-grade band and orchestra. Look at the chart on the right and consider what you might like to learn in the future.
You now know what you want to play.
You are excited!

If you are interested in playing percussion, we ask that you give us a little more information by uploading a couple of videos. They are linked in the enrollment form, but you can view them here ===========================================>
- While every band needs percussion, not every member of the band can play percussion. This additional information helps us find the best fit!
Maybe you are still unsure. Linked below are demo videos from the amazing Minnesota Orchestra. All beginning instruments are featured.
Need to talk with someone - Contact information for each school's band and orchestra teachers are below.
You will receive an email and official letter from the CPS Fine Arts Department during the first two weeks of March confirming your enrollment and the instrument you will begin studying fall of 2022!
Questions answered, you definitely know what you want to play. So what are you waiting on?
You are excited! We are excited!
