Welcome to the LEPS Band Page
The P&C Band Sub-Committee has the large, but very satisfying, task of overseeing the running of the LEPS Band program. The various LEPS Bands have been enormously successful over the years, and provide a wonderful opportunity for students to develop musical ability, responsibility and a sense of teamwork

New Conductor for CB 2012
Please welcome Jonathan Dollin who joins LEPS as our new Conductor for CB in 2012.
Jonathan is a professional saxophonist, flautist, clarinetist, conductor and teacher with a wealth of experience in both performance and conducting.
Music is Jon's passion and he believes in teaching the fundamentals of music first such as good breathing and good technique prior to teaching musical styles such as jazz, pop, funk, classical and contemporary.
After graduation from University with a Bachelor of Creative Arts in Musical Performance majoring in Saxophone in 2005 he has been an Instrumental Tutor at various schools and comes to us from St Pius X College in Chatswood where he continues both as conductor of the Junior Concert band and Junior Jazz band as well as tutor in saxophone, clarinet and flute.
Jon believes that lessons should be fun and is thrilled to be part of the LEPS Band Programme as conductor. He is looking forward to meeting all the children in Concert Band this year and teaching them some terrific new music for 2012!
