IRONMEN BANDS
Private Instructors
Here is a list of private instructors for each instrument. The NCHS band department encourages all of its students to study privately in addition to their involvement in the High School Program. This additional study time helps students become great musicians on their instrument and explores more concepts than are studied within class hours.
