The College currently has some 250 students involved in the Instrumental Music program, from Years 7 to 12.
Tuition is provided on a large range of instruments including Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Saxophone, French Horn, Trumpet, Trombone, Tuba, Piano, Guitar and Bass Guitar.
Students
are given
one free semester of instrumental tuition in Year 7 as part of their
Classroom Music curriculum.
Students can then elect to continue on their instrument or
change to another. A large number of students continue learning their
instrument through to Year 12.
In recent years quite a number of students have elected VCE Solo and Group Performance as part of their Year 12 studies.
All bands perform a number of times each year for a variety of occasions, ranging from school assemblies and concerts, to performing in the wider community.
Major highlights include the Olympic Torch Relay, State Ministerial performances, the School's Annual Dinner Dance, the Melbourne School's Band Festival and the annual Music Camp for each group.
A
major part
of the program includes performing in an ensemble.
Salesian College has five ensembles that cater for the different levels
of students' abilities.
These include Senior, Intermediate and Junior Concert Bands, and Senior and Intermediate Stage Bands.
