' ' fall mp. Band visi ts Opryland, orchestra hosts WI U . . lenbrook South's band had a productive year despite cancellation of it ELLEN MILLER, KIM Macey, and Kathy Riley play their clarinettes in a band concert. 96fB nd Sr Orchestra The marching band was sup- posed to travel to Denver, Col. to perform during the half time of a Denver Broncos football game. The trip, however, was cancelled due 'to a snow storm that hit Denver. The band was invited by the Broncos to play, and not being able to go disappointed everyone. We were all ready to go, and all of a sudden we got a call saying the trip was cancelled, explained senior Grant Peters. The band did quite well in the marching contests it entered during the year. lt won the annu- al Sycamore, Illinois marching contest for the fourth consecu- tive time. X The band was also invited to play at the Daley Civic Center by the city of Chicago. The success of the band is partly due to the strong pride of its members. The band is the pride of the school. lt is the only spirit the school has, claims sophomore Jim Waechter. The band performs at all the home football games and other sporting events. Grant Peters adds, The band performance during half time of the football games brings much of the spirit to the games. The band's biggest event of the year was a trip to Nashville, Tenn. They entered a band con- test at Opryland theme park. They also performed at the Uni- versity of Louisville and at a Nashville high school. Band director Peter Pappas is very proud of the band's success this year. The band is perform- ing well. They are better than they were a year ago fFebru- aryl. Orchestra The Glenbrook South orches- tra performed many concerts throughout the year. The orchestra periodically performed concerts in the audi- torium and the cafeteria. The concerts were primarily for en- tertainment purposes. They were openfto anyone who want- ed to listen to the orchestrafs performance, with no charge for admission. Senior Geoff Muckenhirn had a solo at the concert held in Feb- ruary. Muckenhirn was the con- cert master of the performance. Being concert master means that he played first chair, first violin. lt was a real honor to be con- cert master in' the perfor- mance, commented Mucken- hirn. The North and South orches- tras united to perform two con- certs during the year. One per- formance, performed inthe Nor- man E. Watson Auditorium, in- cluded the Western Illinois ,or- chestra, which was on tour at the time. The concertrwas one of the highlights of the year. The second concert included just the North and South orches- tras. Mr. Frank Winkler completed his first year as orchestra con- ductor. Some students think very highly of him. He is a very good conductor. He has done a fine job in succeeding Dan Bur- gess, adds Muckenhirn. Winkler formerly was the pia- nist for Sammy Davis, Jr., in the performance, Stop the World l Want to Get Off. 5 i Symphonic Band I: lst Row: Jim Waechter, Dana Filliman, Julie Muto, Anne Attea, Libby Ladd, Nadine Sohr, Marlene Fenster, Alexis Mitchell, Lisa Pontarelli, Beth Wiedl, Diane Marthg 2nd Row: Pam Sclavenitis, Kim Erland, Bill Engdahl, Jenny Dickson, Mary Wo- jak, Julie Aspinall, Toni Dini, Joann Spalding, Anne Corley, Mark Gillen, D:-rica Kaczar, Rob Smudde, John ,E ,..., ,. sf 2 Muckenhirn, Vilma Klassen, Jane Cuth- bertson, Sally Miller, Judy Gebert, Mari- lyn Berdick, Karen Melbergg 3rd Row: Ellen Miller, Kim Macey, Cathy Riley, Brad Baum, Peter Weber, Randy Barnes, Debbie Bos, Paul Kapustka, Cheri Hubert, Dan Godzicki, Ron Gadek, Marc Baum, Bill Ryno, Leslie Benson, David Rhind.

Musicians show There are several vocal groups at Glenbrook South, and there are also several instrumen- 'tal groups. Daybreak, however, is the only musical group at GBS that combines both vocal and in- strumental talents. The group, consisting of 26 singers and 11 instrumentalists, sing mostly jazz, pop and folk songs. According to Mr. Walter Lamble, director of Daybreak, their favorite songs this year were a Disney medley, Jublia- tion la Gospel-rocki and These Foolish Things ta 1930's balladl. On March 6,7,8 and 9, the group performed at University of Iowa, Iowa City West High School, Norway High School, and University of Minnesota. They also appeared at the North Shore Country Club. Daybreak's trips are financed by fund-raisers such as selling donuts and hot chocolate during finals, working the concessions stand and receiving donations from places where they per- formed. A Daybreak performance is different from performances by other GBS vocal groups, accord- ing to Lamble. It's more of a show when they perform than a concert, he stated. The audi- ences enjoy themselves, too! MASTER SINGERS: lst row: Julie Krueger, Karen Nelson, Robin Lynn, Cara Lukin, Bella Nicolas, Tracy Woody, Eric Gilliland, Marilyn Berdick, Karen Nellisg 2nd row: Mandy Larkins, Amy Barr, Patti Johnson, Tracee Hoff- meyer, Marla Kupfer, Melissa Lawrence, Karen Keenan, Jenny Riedl, Mike Bartsch, John Clonts, Jake Daabg 3rd row: Jorge Campo, Darryl Nicholson, Doug Miller, Ed Dingman, Steve Levitan, Tim Filliman, Todd Atkinson, Phil Gat- tone, Tom Purtell, Tom Conlin. 3fDaybrcak, Jazz Band And Master Singers Although they were so busily preparing for the Eliza- bethan Banquet or a trip to a corner of the country, the Master Singers were by no means inactive. They busied themselves with many other more local events. The Appalachian Banquet, the Master Singers' main ac- tivity, replaced the biennial Elizabethan Banquet. Held in the New Pit and the cafeteria, the banquet included the sing- ers singing and dancing in ac- cordance with the theme of the banquet. Many who participated in it felt that it was a success. It was a lot of fun because ev- eryone got real rowdy and everything. You couldn't do that at the Elizabethan Ban- quet because it was so for- mal, declared one Glen- brook South student. In addition to the banquet, the Masters sang at The mu- sic festival in Techny Towers Chapel, for the Lyric Opera Women's Auxiliary, and at schools, including a few con- certs at GBS. Included in their perfor- mances are show tunes, pop TOM MIKESKA AND Justin Kar- gul prepare for a concert. Variety of talents music, and classical. It gives our students an understanding of mu- sic, said Dr. William Schnell, di- rector of the singers. Most students at Glenbrook South enjoy rock 'n roll more than any other kind of music. Thanks to variety at GBS, there is a group of students who not only enjoy jazz music but also play it. The band competed in two lo- cal competitions, once at Munde- lein High School, and once at Riv- erside-Brookfield. Also, they went down to Opryland, Tenn., with the symphonic bands, from April 25 to April 28. Also included in the group's ac: tivities. was their performance in the GBS variety show, Hit the Road. Although the students making up the band are fairly young, imostly sophomores and juniorsl Mr. Peter Pappas, band director, feels They're the best jazz band in the six years I've been at South. They're very very hard workers, and theyire very young, so they'll be even better next year. VM L
