Musical Groups Sound Off! What's that noise drifting over from the 900 building? It's the Madison vocal- ists and musicians sounding off! Tucked away in its own little comer of the cam- pus, the music department demanded to be heard. Whether it was 7:00 or 2:30, directors Mr. Davidson and Mr. Wolfe kept music students busy. Enjoyable performances were the result. Honor Ensemble? What’s that? This years' Madrigals voted to change their name. Stage Band followed suit by adopting the more sophisticated name. Jazz Ensemble. All these groups showed (hat spark of enthusiasm that won the support of proud Madison students. JAZZ ENStiMBLF: SEATED - Dan Birgclailis. Mike Mvhrvold. Barbara Gaus. lid l.loyd. Greg Holmes.

Symphonic Band Earns Superior Rating at Festival Concert Band followed the trend set by the Jazz Ensemble, formerly Stage Band and Honor Ensemble, formerly Mad- rigals and adopted the more sophisticated title of symphonic band. The band earned four “ones , the highest possible score, in district competition at Southwestern College. The band demonstrated their superb sight-reading skills and gave a superior overall performance. Their high rating sent them on to compete in the regional festival. This year Mr. Wolfe organized a string ensemble as a new addition to the music department. They entertained in var- ious programs during the year. The group scored very high in competition in the Solo and Ensemble Eestival at San Diego State College. LEFT: Concert Band Director. Mr. Wolfe conducts during a daily rehearsal.
