Providing a piccolo for our band program will not only create a powerful force within our brand new marching band, it will also expand the level of possible artistry that our students may attain! Whenever there is a piccolo part in our concert music, right now our only option is to play the part on flute (which creates balance and timbre issues). Playing piccolo is very different from playing flute, and is a skill that all flutists should have the opportunity to pursue. The purchase of a piccolo will also enable the band to play music that requires a piccolo for its performance, which for now is limiting the music that we are actually able to play.
