PWHS Concert Band

The Parkway West Concert Band is one of two wind and percussion ensembles at PWHS.  Comprised of students grades 9-12, the group presents three concerts per year.  Each year the band performs at the MSHSAA large group festival.

​This group is comprised of students who elect not to march in the fall and members of the fall color guard that also play a wind instrument.  The concert band winds and percussion meet together for fifty minutes each day of the week.
