Concert Season Starts Well With Both Bands Under New Direction The Traverse City High School Concert and Symphony Bands, along with the Wind Emsemble, began their first year under the direction of Gregory L. Talford. Mr. Dennis )ohnson, formerly the assistant director to Mr. Hegerberg, has taken over the Concert band. The Wind Ensemble, now in its second year of existence, also is directed by Mr. Talford. Both bands are working hard as they prepare for the M.S.B.O.A. District Festival to be held on February 22. Newly formed this year, is the 1975 Pep Band. In years past, it has been known as the Trojan Brass and consisted of brass players only. The pep band has performed at all of the home basketball games. The bands have had many activities this year, including the Christmas Concert, performed with the Choir and Orchestra, and the Mid-Winter Concert.
