Mira Costa Bands Perform with David Benoit

It was a performance for the ages. The concert bands all played for our POPS Concert on May 30th. Jazz pianist and distinguished MCHS alumni David Benoit played with the Jazz Band and brought down the house! Recordings will be made available on the Band website.

Tryout Info

Marching Band and Colorguard are no cut programs, and can be taken for PE credit. No prior marching band or colorguard experience is required.

It is a year-round program.
Concerts and Jazz 1 band assessments are held in May/June. MBMS student scheduling is coordinated by Denise Haslop. Hermosa, Redondo and all other new students contact Mr. Carlson to schedule an assessment. All Marching Band students are required to be in a concert ensemble class: Wind Symphony, Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band or Jazz Band 1. Colorguard students do not need to schedule an assessment, and are not required to be in a concert ensemble class. Colorguard students can sign up by registering for the “Flags” class when they complete their scheduling request.
The Marching Band & Colorguard season goes from August through November. Incoming Freshman have practice once a week in April-June prior to attending Mira Costa. Colorguard students may elect to continue in guard during the spring semester by participating in Winterguard (which also appears as “Flags” on the student’s schedule).
There is a mandatory Marching Band & Colorguard camp from noon to 8 pm two weeks prior to fall semester; 1 evening practice/week in June and July (absence due to vacation is excused.)
All Marching Band & Colorguard students members are Varsity members. All members perform at Field Competitions, Football Games, Disneyland and Parades.
