Tunes and tempo Should Valley College ever find itself in the center of a heat wave, the cause probably would be found in the Music Building where hot notes and hot rhythm lead to a real cooln sound. The originator in this instance is Robert MacDonald and his Jazz Band. Since its birth. the band has had no difficulty in winning awards. It won the 1953 Metronone Magazine dance band contest, a national competition, and walked away with the 1961 Mon- terey jazz band competition top prize. There are two main factors contrib- uting to the success of the band. The first is MacDonald, the bandls director. He has effectively 'lkeyedn his way to win some of the nation dance band prizes. His activities outside of the Val- ley campus, including rehearsing and conducting the production at the Battle of the Bands in the Hollywood Bowl, have proven him one of the tops. The second and equally important factor is the musicians themselves. The students learn to compose their own arrangements, and they are responsible for most of the presentations of the band. Many of the Valley graduates have gone on to work with such top name bands as the Si Zentner, Ray Conniff, Les Elgart, Les Brown and Harry James' bands. ' With two such factors as MacDonald and the band members, it is no wonder that success is synonymous with Val- ley's Jazz Band.
