They spend their first year learning all basic concepts of music theory and learning to assemble, play, and properly care for their instruments. The Stage Band was begun this year to give the more talented musicians an opportunity to experi- ence other forms of music than the traditional band literature. It is composed of five saxophones, four trumpets, four trombones, piano, trap drums, elec- tric guitar, and electric bass. It competed as a mixed wind ensemble in the solo and ensemble con- test held at East Texas State University in Com- merce.
