the Music Play Let The musical youth of our school are well represented. Band members, decked out in flashy uniforms, liven up football games and parades with their crowd- rousing tunes. In the past few years, the band has even shared their music with other communities through exchange trips. The band also produces a spring concert once their marching days are through. The orchestra, while small, puts forth a big effort at introducing a little class to the listening tastes of Riverhead High. Each Christmas and spring the orchestra performs an industriously prepared con- cert to the parents and students. This year, the orchestra was pleased to contain two All-State bass players, Rob Soto and Ted Goldwyn. It is not often that an or- chestra this size can say as much. The chorus provides a fine concert each year at Christmas and in the spring they perform a wide selection of vocal ar- rangements from the 18th Century to the present day. Students in the band and the orchestra can also participate in the chorus. Singers wishing to become more involved may join Show Choir. The Sound Waves sing, dance, and travel to contests held especially for show choirs. Music is a vital part of every human's life so it is rather appropriate that we should be given every opportunity to ex- pand and enrich our musical talents. The fine music program at RHS has given us just this chance. I Mum Department I
