MUSIC DEP RTME T ACCENTS PERFORMANCE In Dana,s days the sailors might all be gathered around the back of the shipg smoking their pipes and listening to music being played by members of the crew. Music was greatly en- joyed. Here at Dana Hills students find much satisfaction out of being a part of our music department, and portraying its philosophy which is as stated by Mr. Badham, Enjoyment in the increased ability to communicate in vocal or instrumental music as a soloist and as a member of a music ensemble. The department head, Mr. Badham also said that 'gmany of our students go on to college music programs and some grad- uates have become professional musicians. Dana Hills now has new facilities which help in musical instruction and they consist ofa new sound system which in- cludes a stereo phonograph, play-back facilities, and a reel- to-reel tape recording system. All of the ensemble classes, band, choirs, jazz ensemble, and concert-marching band are continuing programs. Al l S f- Ce X X
