The 125-piece organization played at every Wasson football game. presenting half-time entertainment at all home games and at two away games. At the end of the football season, the entire Thunder- bird Marching Band began the transition to the Thunder- bird Concert Band. This group gave two major concerts in the spring. The first was a formal concert in April, to which a special guest artist was invited. The second was the Pops Concert in May. in which soloists and ensembles from the Instrumental and Vocal Music Departments per- formed classical, popular, and Broadway music, combined with a touch of comedy. The Preparatory Band was primarily a study group. It was composed largely of sophomores who felt the need of one semester or more of study before going into the Concert Band. Other members regularly played an instru- ment in the Concert Band and participated in the Prep Band while learning a new instrument. The 56-member group was directed by Mr. Nicholas Rossi and Mr. Gus Jackson. WORLD CHAMPION twirlcr Ken Bur- rett receives an award from Mayor Hoth. JIM CONLEY, Mr. Rossi, and Mike Rubridge discuss a difficult maneuver which they hope will be used at the next halftime.
