Band & Choir

Students in grades 4-8 are invited to participate in the St. Anne Catholic School Band. Instruction is provided by Music Education Services and is offered for beginners, intermediate and advanced students. All teachers are certified with degrees exclusively in music education (IL K-12 Special). The program includes two group lessons per week, each lasting 30-45 minutes. Band is a co-curricular activity, with instruction happening both during and outside school hours. Instruments include the flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone and percussion (bells & snare). Music Education Services has partnered with Music & Arts to provide parents an optional rent-to-own instrument program.

The St. Anne Band joins musicians from four other area Catholic elementary schools and performs three major concerts annually. All students are also encouraged to participate in solo & ensemble festivals. Top achieving students also have the opportunity to participate in a special Honor Band in April. Students audition and are selected out of the best students in the Music Education Services system, all from the Chicagoland area.

Taking part in the Children’s Choir will give you the opportunity to have fun learning new and exciting liturgical music and to share your musical gifts with your family and your faith community. This choir, made up of children in grades 2-8, sings at our parish Family Masses.

Students of St. Anne school in grades 2nd through 8th have the opportunity to share their musical gifts during our school liturgies. School Mass Choir members learn and grow in the area of liturgical music ministry by becoming confident leaders of song. The School Mass Choir meets during school and sings at our school mass Wednesday liturgies.
