MUSIC (Band) The Musical Art in America is young, but high schools all over the country are making a great improvement in the trend of music education. Music can tell in a faint whisper or tell in thunderous power the path students are taking in life. The hand participated in the Vi estern Wisconsin Music festival at LaCrosse. November 15, 1941. The Galeville band journeyed down here to present a joint concert with us. Each band also played their own selections. To make the individuals of the band more confident in his playing, each member of the band is required to select and prepare a solo for presentation. The members in this way can receive extra recognition of their ability. Chorus The A Cappclla choir took part in the Auditorium dedication last fall. The chorus was represented at the Western Wisconsin Music Festival, January 17. at 1 .aCrosse. This was very good experience because one of the country’s most distinguished choral directors was the guest conductor. The well known conductor was Noble Cain. The chorus has received choral gowns—thanks to the Seniors. The band and the chorus are going to present a spring concert prior to the Music Tournament. The band has taken a big step forward this spring. For this we appreciate the work Mr. Peterson has done, especially the wonderful progress of the junior band. BAND PERSONNEL F LUTE E.
