MR. DAVID MARR Department Head MUSIC The music department provides marvelous opportunities for students interested in music, and furnishes programs for the school and the com- munity. The department consists of two sections-vocal and instrumental. In- cluded in the vocal section are boys' advanced glee, beginning mixed chorus, girls' chorus I and II, and a cappella choir. Courses in the instrument sec- tion are band I and II, and orchestra. String and band lessons are provided for students as courses. Girls' chorus II presents many fine programs, the most outstanding being the Christmas Cantata which has become a tradition at Shasta. The a cappella choir is to be congratulated as, although this is its first year, it has established a high place in providing entertainment at many different events. The band plays at all the rallies and league games. It also presents the annual Band Clinic in which all the schools in Northern California par- ticipate. The orchestra presents itself at different assemblies and programs. Ma. .
