About - CENTENNIAL H.S. BAND & COLORGUARD

The Centennial High School Instrumental Music program features several performance ensembles, including the Husky Marching Alliance, Winterguard, Percussion Ensemble, Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band, Jazz Band, Concert Band, and Pep Band. We live by the motto “Excellence Always”, and are dedicated to giving the audience our best performance every time.
With 150 members, we are in our 31st year of entertaining audiences throughout Southern California. The Cen10 Instrumental Music program has performed in the Hollywood Christmas Parade, Los Angeles County Fair Parade, Disneyland, Los Angeles Korean Festival Parade, American Drum Line Association Championships, Winter Guard Association of Southern California Championships, numerous CIF football championships games, SCSBOA Concert Festivals, Heritage Music Festivals, Music in the Parks, jazz festivals, and numerous field show competitions.

We have sent many students to honor groups, including the John Philip Sousa Honor Band, Tournament of Roses Honor Band, All-Star Invitational Band (Orange Bowl), Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Honor Band, and Cal State Los Angeles First Chair Honor Band. Students in our program also maintain an excellent grade-point average, including many members with a 4+ GPA.
