About Us

The Sarasota High School Mighty

Sailor Band is comprised of the Wind

Ensemble, Symphonic Band, Concert

Band, Mighty Sailor Marching Band,

Admirals and Commanders Jazz

Bands, as well as the Indoor Color

Guard, Winds, and Percussion

Ensembles. The band was founded,

along with the school, in 1913 and is

the oldest high school band program

in Sarasota County.

Since its creation, the band has been an integral part of school culture, performing at every home football game as well as several away games every year. On top of its duties on campus, the band is also very present in the community, performing in the Veteran's Day and Christmas Parades annually. The band has also performed in parades in New York City, London, Atlanta, and other global destinations as recently as 2015.

Over the past several years the program has developed a strong competitive presence in

the State of Florida, especially with the creation of our Indoor Color Guard, Winds, and Percussion Ensembles. Sarasota High School is the only school in Florida to offer all 3 of these types of ensembles and has won 4 State Championships over the past 3 years.
