1945 CLINTONIAN Q0 ooo g A gg g - -g-J Band Although smaller in number and not quite complete in instrumentation, the high school Concert Band showed its tlexibility and maintained. throughout the school year, a fine standard of per- formance. VVhen the Service claimed a large part of the lower brass section, new hardships fell upon those who re- mained in the band. instead of divided responsibility and added support. every one's job became doubly difficult. ln spite of this. the organization performed in a very creditable and professional man- ner and. at the last concert of the season. proved its merit by performing one of the most difficult contemporary compo- sitions in bandliterature-Eric l.eiz- den's Overture Holiday Professional musicians who heard it were unusually enthusiastic about the display of tech- nique and control and quality of tone. ln addition to the regularly scheduled assembly programs. the band played for bond rallies and other special events. ln March they played. with the orchestra and chorus, in a concert sponsored by the Civic Group. A concert for the pa- tents at Rhoads Military Hospital was played in April. The Hand received a wonderful ovation from the men and were cordially invited to come again. soon, please! In the lfestival of Music held in May, once again they thrilled a packed house by playing Sousa Marches and other great works. On Memorial Day. the Marching Band went to Clark Mills and VVest- moreland and assisted the American Le- gion in their observation of the occasion. At present, 56 boys and girls are being trained to replace those in the band who will be leaving us in the next year or two. They are being taught by Mr. Hen- ry Schueler. Mr. VYilliam Schueler and Mr. liudesheim. Qrchestra livery year in most every school music department. we observe the disintegra- tion of stringed instrumental music. An orchestra with inadequate string com- pliment is handicapped so completely. that performance of standard orches- tral literature is impossible. The student body, faculty, and residents of Clinton are not aware of this simply because there is no disintegration in this field. The orchestra has long been known in this section of New York State as hav- ing had the most complete and well bal- anced string group of any Centralized School representing the New York State Music Association. ln concerts this group always presents well known com- positions for the string choir and, at the Festival of Music in May, played what is perhaps the best known and best loved of this type of music. Last Springf' by Edward Greig. Players from the Utica Symphony orchestra were unbounded in their praise on the quality of the perfor- mance. The orchestra. in addition to the reg- ular assembly programs. ,played for the Christmas Music. In conjunction with the ,lunior and Senior Choirs. they pre- sented our favorite program of the year. Music For Christmasfy In May the group visited our neigh- bors at New Hartford and played a con- cert for the students and their faculty. We can say, with certainty. that never has our orchestra been more enthusias- tically received. VVhat began to look like ..,.. -r
