ABOUT
The Brass Band Academy provides any student in the Columbus, Georgia - Phenix City, Alabama area, the opportunity to learn to play a brass instrument and participate in a comprehensive music program. It is an ideal choice for
homeschool students and enables small schools the ability to include instrumental music as part of their curriculum. Starting with Bugle Boot Camp and followed by Cornet Class, The BBA will
prepare your children to be
confident members on
the brass band team
and challenge them
to reach their highest
potential as they have
fun learning to play
great music.
The BBA is modeled
on the all brass band
that developed in
Yorkshire England during the last half of the 19th century. This unique style of music making has spread around the world and has a 150-year history of training the very finest brass musicians. The British Brass Band provides a clearly defined structure for individual and group learning - and a full band only requires 27 players. This musical team produces a very distinctive sound that is rich, powerful and incredibly beautiful.
The BBA will introduce your child to the rewarding experience of performing on their instru-
ment for family, church, school and community events as well as competitive playing at re-
gional and national levels. Public performance will help motivate your student to practice,
focus on concrete musical goals and build self-confidence. Additionally, The BBA will open the
door to a vibrant international brass band fraternity and expose your child to world class musi- cians who live in and visit the west central Georgia-Alabama area.
