The Music department of the Walnut Community High School consists of three major divisions: Vocal, Instrumental, Solo, and Ensemble. The first of these is made up of a junior-Senior Girls' Chorus, a Freshman-Sophomore Girls' Chorus, a Boys' Chorus, and a Mixed Chorus. The second group consists of a sixty piece concert and marching band. The third part of this program is made up of small groups such as: Girls' Vocal Sextet, Boys' Vocal Octet, Mixed Vocal Octet, Girls' Vocal Trio, Cornet-Trombone Quartet, Mixed Brass Ensemble, Woodwind Trio, Mixed Woodwind Quintet, B Flat Clarinet Quartet, Mixed Clarinet Quartet, and Percussion linsemble. Beside these groups, stress is made of solo work and we have soloists on Bassoon, Cornet, Trombone, Bass, Baritone, Clarinet, Drum, Oboe, Bass Voice, Boys' unchanged voice, Soprano voice, and Tenor voice. The various organizations perform for many public events such as Football games, the annual Musicade, the Blackhawk Vocal and Band Festivals, the Contests, Spring Concerts, Homecoming, Church events, Rotary Club, etc. Our soloists and ensembles perform for Friday Assemblies, Bryant Club, and other local groups. Suitable recognition is given to those who take part in our music program, in that one fourth credit is given each Semester for both Instrumental and Vocal Music. ln addition to credit toward gradua- tion, a special system of tangible awards has been devised. A four inch music letter is given for participation in both Vocal and lnstru- mental music for two years, a six inch letter is given for participaw tion in both for three years, a gold pin is given for participation in either Vocal or Instrumental for four years, and a special gold pin lJKlfM liNSlil-1l5Lli l.liFT TO Rlfilfli' 'Villinm Schmitt, Carolyn johnson lfvelyn Paeoke, llonna Vunneri Gllilh' VUQJXI.
