:: Park Hill South High School Band ::
Auditions for chair placement in Symphonic and Concert band are held at the end of marching season. Students who are selected to
perform in this group are very dedicated and have reached a high level of achievement through individual work and/or private study. Many
of the members of this ensemble will become members of the Kansas City All-District Band(s) and the Missouri All-State Band. Most of
the members of Symphonic Band are involved in solo/small ensemble work during District and State Music Festival time in the spring. The
Park Hill South High School Symphonic Band, conducted by Dr. Miller, is the primary performing ensemble in the PHS Band Program.
Bands the caliber of the Symphonic Band are regularly invited (through recorded audition) to perform at local, state, regional, national and
international festivals and clinics. All performances are required.

of the other high school bands in the K.C. area, and some members of this group will also become members of the All-District and
All-State Bands. After marching season members of Concert Band perform in three regularly scheduled concerts at PHS, as well as the
MSHSAA Large Ensemble District Music Festival in March. All performances are required.

few juniors comprise the membership in Campus Band. This ensemble's focus is on technical development and performance. Usually
four concerts are scheduled during the school year, with an optional performance at the Worlds of Fun Festival of Bands. Although
students are eligible to audition for All-District and All-State Bands, they usually wait to audition until they become a member of Symphonic
or Concert Band. All performances are required.
