Orchestra Brings Music Pleasure To Members BAND AND ORCHESTRA Forward march! Left, right, left .... The MCHS marching band practices very hard and spends many hours planning and perfecting programs and music selections. During the fall of the year, the band partici- pates in the half time programs at MCHS home foot- ball games and travels to Ann Arbor to represent MC- HS at the University of Michigan Band Day. They play with hundreds of other student musicians during the football game half time. This year the members sold Sanders candy and organized a MCHS Band Tag Day to help finance the band's annual summer music camp. The MCHS orchestra presents concerts, plays in school assemblies, and represents MCHS at various state wide music festivals. Wind players from the band and string players who pass an audition compose the orchestra. Many hours are spent practicing musical selections and making musical arrangements for various programs. One of the highlights of the year was the oper- etta, Oklahoma!. Orchestra members ioined forces with members of the Mount Clemens Symphony Orchestra to play the popular Rodgers and Hammer- stein score. -ei W, ,, I t . is 3 Every morning, first hour finds members of the orchestra dili- gently rehearsing.
