Gazz Band Jazz — That's what it was all about. For 18 dedicated musi- cians, jazz meant starting school each day at 6:50 a.m. But that didn't stop them from having a great time performing for their audiences. They participated in the Marysville Jazz Festival, various assemblies for the student body, and at scheduled con- certs throughout the year. Val Villafana nervously performed his first public solo while the Jazz Band played in the student lounge for Homecoming.

Their direc- tor, Mr. Patterson, was very pleased with the amount of effort that the band demonstrated. Coucert Gaud Concert Band 23
