Ensembles.

At Travis High School we provide opportunities to take part in ensembles that will expand your musical experience. Take a second to read about each ensemble and what they have to offer!

Marching Band

The Rebel Marching Band is the heart and soul of Friday nights! We attend each varsity football game and are featured during half-time, we play every school pep-rally, and parades across Austin. The music we play spans a range of genres from Pop, Rock, Funk, Jazz, Latin, and more. We're here to play and entertain so be ready to bring the hype!

Concert Band

After Marching season is over we go straight in to Concert season! While marching is more physically active, concert season is just as demanding. During this time we focus more on the expression of music and highlighting the nuances of lines within lines that are woven through the various pieces we play. Every year the music selection is different as to provide you the opportunity of being exposed to a range of concert styles.

The RCC: Rebel Creative Collective

In The RCC band you will learn the intricacies of popular styles of music that have gained ground in the last 60-70 years: funk, soul, rock, jazz, hip-hop, and more. All of the music is arranged or composed by the director to best suit the needs of the ensemble. You will also learn the theory of music and how to apply that to the creation of your own music and sound through improvisation.

Los Rebeldes del Sur

Mariachi has a special place at Travis HS, our program was one of the first in the state and helped shape Mariachi in the classroom. In this class you will learn about the history, development, and evolution of the Mariachi genre. Styles covered will range from Mariachi, Norteña, Banda, Cumbias, Rancheras, Son, etc. The music of Latinx culture in Texas is beautiful, vibrant, and very much alive in the hearts of our community; our goal is to bring that music and life into our classroom, school, and further!

We Promise You the Best.

We the directors promise you the best of what we have to offer in our capacity. We prepare and coordinate all that is necessary to run and grow each of our ensembles. All we ask is that you, the student, commit to yourself and your peers the best of what you have to offer. Be present, be ready, and be willing to do the work we ask of you and you will grow to be the best musician you aspire to be.
