Sounds Of Music For the fourth straight year, Mr. Unger directed the instrumental music program at Powers to a first-class season. Although band is a class, the spirit, fun, and hard work make it more like an extracurricular activity. In Marching Band you concentrate on producing the lively halftime shows given during Powers' football victories. ln Concert and Symphonic Band you learn music theory and give the Christmas and T Spring Concerts. You also have the opportunity to l play in the pep band and the solo and ensemble festival. The Beginning Band students learn the basics of music while seeing what band is all about. Special events that highlighted the year included band camp at MSU, the Holland Tulip Festival, and playing in the school musical West Side Story. Mr. Brad Cwiklinski from Central Michi- gan University was an invaluable aid to Mr. Unger and the band in 1974.

A combination of the unique, the con- ventional, and the dedicated work of Director Paul Koscielniak, has made the vocal music program at Powers a real success. The increased interest in choir was marked by this year's expansion. Three choir classes were offered this year. Beginners Vocal Music, Advanced Vocal Music, and Sacred Choral enrolled about 130 students. The Men's Chancel Choir is a unique group in Michigan according to Mr. K. The choir rendered its services to many area churches and also sang at St. Mary's Cathedral in Lansing. The advanced men and women combined to form the Concert Choir, They performed a wide variety of music, at the Christmas Concert, All-City Choral Festival, and Thanksgiving Interfaith Service. Also the Madrigal Singers completed their first full year together. Although quantity doesn't mean qual- ity, the 1973-74 Powers' choirs proved you can have both.
