riverwood band equipment lists
Each student is required to have all of the below materials for any band class at Riverwood. All of these materials can be purchased online or from one of the music stores linked below. Double reeds have separate links in their section.
Because our program is growing so quickly, we do not have enough instruments for each student to use a school-owned instrument. If you are able, please rent your own instrument from one of the local music stores below:
