The Melting Pot Of Talent Glass is lucky to have such a great number of bands here and all with great quality. The so- called “bottom rung” of the band ladder is the Campus band. What most of the band members don’t realize is that Campus band is an excellent way to improve one’s ability in music so that in follow- ing years, the old Campus band members will be vital parts of other bands. Since Campus band class is such a small class, unlike the Symphonic or Concert band classes, they receive individual help from director, Mr. Harold Ford. Almost every Campus band member hopes to one day move up to one of the other bands, Symphonic or Concert. This goal makes the Campus band mem- bers work extra hard. Those other bands have a classy image to keep up, but what about the Campus band image? The Cam- pus band is know for its determi- nation to achieve; they are hard workers and soon it will pay off. Some of the Campus band mem- bers are in the band for fun, but most are there for the challenge that self-improvement can pro- vide. They have had to achieve a certain level of musical talent to even want to play a concert with Concert and Symphonic bands. The Campus band did, and not only did they play a Christmas concert with Concert and Sym- phonic bands but also a Spring concert. Another hard working band is the Jazz band. The Jazz band is a melting pot of bands including Campus, Symphonic, and concert band members, Regional and State band winners, and people not even in a band. It’s amazing the variety and level of talent in the Jazz band-eveyone has a part. Though the Jazz members only played one concert free for students in the courtyard, they had fun in preparing it. Wednes- day afternoons at 12:15 some pretty ‘“jazzy’’ music can be heard out-side the bandroom. Members often get together to Jam for fun. The variety of instru- ments in the Jazz band matches the variety of talent.

Making beautiful music is a job that only certain talented people have acquired. Some of the school-spirited singers are the Treble and Concert Choirs who delight audiences with every performance. Although sing- ing seems easy, it really isn't. Prac- ticing for concerts is a hard job be. cause one sings in anticipation of the big night. Practices are frequent and long. Evidently these singers have much to do, but they have fun with it. Concerts are hard also, under blaring lights, and in a rage of ner- vousness over so many watchers. Because of their hard work and faithfulness, the choir gains much recognition. Truly these people sing their hearts out! 26 Treble Concert Choirs For You! ae - Girls Treble Choir: On Ground: Laurie Quillen, Teresa Jackson, Debbie Walker, Maria Johnson, Second Row: Lisa Taylor, Lisa Barr, Jane Power, Laura Denton, Bridget Colmore, Melissa Webster, Pam Satler, Third Row: Laura Eckert, Sandra Faw, Elizabeth Hayes, Cheryl Sale, Melinda Hicks, Beth Stilling, Tammy Burns, Faith Mays, Georgie Hume Haskins, Yancey McWayne, n Tree: Hope Harris, and Dannelle Knight.

Symphonic And Concert Bands E.C. Glass has a variety of bands: marching, campus, jazz, symphonic and concert. All of these bands are composed of many students; some are even involved in more than one. The bands are very popular at E.C. Glass and they have also be- come widely recognized. Three stu- dents who were chosen for state competition are Clive Papayanis, Jonathan Parrish and Paula Warrick. Out of all the students performing in the bands, these three appeared to be the best. There was also a festi- val held for three days at Glass in which all of the bands played in. The concert band scored straight ones and one two where the sym- phonic band scored five straight ones. The band regionals were held on December 6 at the Franklin Coun- ty High School. Guest conductors lis- ten to the bands play and then pick it's best players. The Glass Bands re- hersed on Saturday and performed the concert on Sunday. An honor given to the symphonic band was to be invited to V.M.E.A. (Virginia Mu- sic Educators Association) held in Richmond where only one other band attended. The symphonic and concert bands have done well and Mr. Ford is very proud of all of his bands.
