Classics Fit Symphonic Band Overall, we have a lot ot talent and a hard-working attitude, noted Senior Chris LeCroy. in Symphonic Band, musicians were continually striving to improve themselves as they concen- trated more on classical music than marching styles. A more serious attitude led to the class goal ot Being the best we can be. Each student worked diligently to upgrade the quality of the band while trying to improve their own talent though daily rehearsals. A clean tight sound, the strength ol the group, and their en- joyment of the music contributed to the professionalism desired by the students. C.

S. Smith 1. Jazzing lt Up Representing the other style of music at Kentridge, the Stage Band and Jazz Ensemble had another productive year. Oriented around jazz music, the musicians involved themselves with a different kind of playing. Throughout the year the musicans learned how to improvise, were ex- posed to jazz literature, went to festivals and participated in concerts. In addition to the regular music concerts, the Jazz Ensemble participated in the annual Jazz Festival. Getting involved with their music was a characteristic shared by all. They provided an oppor- tunity for others to hear good music. Being a unique style of band, the musicians desire was evi- dent. As band director Dale Hutchinson resolved, lt was a good way to end the day, with such desire filled musicians. J. Coluccio A 'r X. S. Smith 2. S. Smith 3. 1.

Setting Tone for Key to Success Undertaking a class of 53 members, Music Director Dale Hutchinson molded and shaped new- ly arrived sophomores into performing musicians to compose the Concert Band. At the beginning of the year I was very optimistic about the band, stated Mr. Hutchinson, and by the end of the year the students had responded very well to our program. Performing selections such as Ainvicta and Gustav Holst's lst Suite In b For The Military Band, the Con- cert Band continually progressed in all areas ot music. Commented Senior Mike Feiderg They definitely played more difficult literature than any other year. ln review of the major performances and daily activities, Mr. Hutchinson declared, I didn't have any reservations about any part ot the year. We always strived toward perfection, and though we may not always have reached it, we still tried to look toward that goal. S.
