Performance Ensembles

Thousand Oaks High School's band program offers a unique opportunity for students to perform as members of one of California's top bands. Whether it's the marching band, one of our concert groups, or our many smaller performance ensembles, Thousand Oaks High School's band program has been recognized to be one of the best in the state.

The Lancer's varied performance ensembles are recognized for their excellence. Our two concert performance bands: Wind Ensemble and Wind Symphony consistently perform at the highest levels, receiving frequent honors in adjudicated concert settings. The TOHS Spring Drum Line is recognized as one of the best in California, receiving top honors in local and regional competitions; while the Winter Guard enjoys considerable success at competitions across the Southland. Two jazz bands are also offered. Our highly regarded AM Jazz Band performs frequently at venues throughout the region.

During the fall, our smaller ensembles come together to form the Thousand Oaks Lancer Band. Together, this mix of brass, woodwind and percussion instrumentalists and our color guard form a renowned field show performance unit known for dramatic exhibitions, strong musical themes, and lavish presentations. The Lancer Band is a performing member in the Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association, the Western Bands Association and the Bands of America Marching Band Circuits.
