The music department at Bayview Secondary School is one of the most active departments in the school. In past years, we've had over 20 different groups operating at various times throughout the day ranging on some days, regularly, from 7:15 in the morning until 9:00 in the evening. The groups vary in size and purpose but if you like music, I'm sure there is something for you.
Please note that many ensembles require you to be taking a music course for admittance. This is not to be exclusionary but the skills required in some of these ensembles need to be developed in these courses to ensure success. Also, because the population of these ensembles are limited, favour is given to music students taking the courses so that they have an opportunity to exercise the skills they have learned.
