ABOUT THE 
  BGHS BANDS  

Developing excellent musicianship, leadership, and citizenship in the concert band program is the primary focus of the program. We look to elevate the level of musicianship while still offering a musical opportunity for every interested student.

​

The concert bands have performed at the Chicagoland Concert Band Festival, receiving superior and excellent ratings. The Wind Ensemble was selected to the University of Illinois SuperState Concert Band Festival for the first time in school history in 2022.

​COLOR GUARD

Guard is a huge part of the band program. They convey visually what the band is performing musically. Guard members combine flag, saber and rifle work with dance to convey the message of the music. Many guard members are musicians and many are not. Color Guard has a fall and winter season and rehearses primarily in the evenings.
