During rehearsal Margaret Potter hammers away at the chimes. ockey games, student assemblies, and Christmas carols all played an active part in the schedule of the Wasson Symphonic Band. The band also involved itself in the regular events of the year, including the state band festival in March and a public concert in February. The entire band, consisting of eighty members, was selected from the larger Concert Band. The stu- dents inthe Symphonic Band are classified as the best musicians at Wasson. Smaller groups that performed for other affairs were the T-Bird Band, Stage Band, Dance Band, and the Brass Choir. All of these smaller bands were se- lected from the larger Symphonic Band.

Mr. Delaney's motion provides guidance for orchestra during fourth period. FIRST ALL-ORCHESTRA PERFORMANCE GIVEN chestra, under the direction of Mr. Dean Delany, culminated its independence from band with the first all-orchestra concert at Wasson. Presenting stand- ard symphonic repetoire, orchestra, with a guest ap- pearance bythe Choristers, performed in concert on November 26. Orchestra's agenda was a busier one than in pre- vious years. The All-Youth City Orchestra Concert was held February 2 at Armstrong Hall, Colorado College: also, members who were selected for All-State Orches- tra via tape recorded auditions attended rehearsals February 9 and 10 in Boulder. As the school year pro- gressed, orchestra provided music for Finian's Rain- bow performed at a concert in conjunction with Sym- phonic Band, and entered an Ensemble Contest in March where a panel of judges offered criticisms of the presentations. Orchestra class was held the same hour as band, thus offering wind musicians the chance to play in a string group, and giving the orchestra and band teach- ers the opportunity to utilize the school day without after-school rehearsals.
