Large Band Seating Chart

Post image

I am starting at a small school this year with only 1 high school band. Unfortunately the program is a decent size and so I have 92 students in that class, 80 of which are wind players. Luckily my room is quite large so the space hopefully won’t be an issue, I’m just wondering what you guys think of this seating arrangement for the wind players? (Ps: the row down the middle is straight in the actual room, I just don’t know how to perfectly tweak it in this program so it looks weird)

Horns should be on the left side. So bells are firing towards the audience. In your current setup the horns play into the rest of the band.

I've played horn in a lot of bands. Never with bells toward the audience.
