WQWQA This year's Girls and Mixed Choruses consisted of a cross-section of Flush- ing High School's population, commented Dr. Diana M. Battipaglia, conduc- tor of both groups and chairman of the Music Department. The choruses included ninth through twelfth graders with singers of varying abilities. Traditionally, the two choruses perform at the Winter Assembly programs, the Spring Concert, local junior high schools and the Annual Holiday Festival held at the Pan American Building. Both groups were unusually large this year. Each consisted of over 100 students which inevitably presented problems. Working with the individual was impossible during class, remarked Dr. Battipaglia, but I tried to compen- sate with private coaching afterwards. Dr. B also found difficulty in obtaining material suitable for the diverse capabilities of the students. However, she stated, I finally decided to choose songs varying in degrees of difficulty. The choruses, on the whole, have im- proved greatly.

The Senior and Intermediate Bands, led by Mr. Bert Haber, were as busy as ever this year. With sixty members in the Senior Band and over fifty in the Intermediate, this year's bands were much larger than previous years'. The large size is good for the band, said Mr. Haber. The more people that are in it, the more instru- ments there are, and the stronger the band sounds. Also, there is no more trouble in teaching a large band than in teaching a small one. The bands will remain large in future years, as there are over forty students in the present Elementary Band who will be joining the Senior and Intermediate Bands. The bands performed in many places, including all FHS Football games, the Flushing Day Parade, the school's annual Winter Concert and Spring Concert. A great variety of musical pieces were selected for performance by the bands this year. Among them were a Godspell melody, a tribute to Glenn Miller, two Israeli dances, and the theme from Rocky,
