If Students heard selections from movies such as Rocky, The One and Only, Grease. or The Sound of Music, they weren ' t at their favorite movie theatre.

Practicing her solo. Concertino for Clarinet. for the contest which is held in January is clarinetist Pam Bales. She sat sixth chair in Symphonic Band. Music was really in ' More discos were in operation and more records were being sold than ever before. Music was definitely in. Blackford had its own brand of music in the form of choirs and bands. Swinging and singing occurred everyday in Bruinland. Under the direction of Mr. Philip Turley, the choirs sang their hearts out to achieve perfection. Four choirs which resided at Blackford were the Freshman, Concert, Chorale, and Swing. When Christmas rolled around, the choirs recorded a tape containing Christ- mas songs which the radio station, WWHC, played during the Yuletide sea- son. The choirs also had a chance to come together with the seventh and eighth grade choirs from the Hartford City Junior High Above Right: Left, Right, Left. Right go the 150 some members of the Marching Band while perform- ing during halftime of a home football game. Adding to the success of open house by entertaining parents, students, and faculty is the Swing Choir accompanied by drums and piano. This group has 27 members. and the Montpelier Middle School for an evening of festivities. Instruments as well as voices were a part of the music scene. Five bands fulfilled Blackford ' s instrumental needs. These in- cluded the Marching, Pep, Stage, Concert, and Symphonic Bands. The Stage Band kept up with the times by playing selections from the hit movies, Grease and Sgt. Pepper ' s Lonely Hearts Club Band. Selling raffle tickets for a new television set to raise money for the trip planned for the spring of 1980 was one way the parents of the Band students became involved with Band activities. Harmony really came together when the choirs and bands performed in ' 78. 122 Music Activities
