Bands

Crestwood High School provides opportunities for playing in a variety of ensemble situations, catering to players of different levels of ability. 

Our regular weekly ensembles consist of a concert band, jazz ensemble and junior rock ensemble. 

Our concert band meets on a weekly basis.  We welcome students who have been involved in bands before a well as those with limited experience.  Public performances take place at various external venues as well as at school occasions.  The concert band competes at various annual Eisteddfods and performs at community and school events such as Relay For Life, the Orange Blossom Festival, Earth Hour with Castle Hill High School, Orientation Day and Presentation Night. 

The jazz ensemble plays contemporary style music, including jazz, blues and theatre music.  Students have enjoyed mastering the range of pieces and the standard of the group has made it a popular contributor at school events. 

The junior rock ensemble also rehearse weekly, developing ensemble playing skills.  Elective music students are also welcomed to form ensembles and are encouraged to perform and showcase their talents at various school events and assemblies.
