West Valley has always had a reputation for having one of the best music programs in the state of Alaska, and the Wolfpack Concert Choir is of course, an important part of this program. Under the direction of Marvilla Davis, the choir performed several concerts that were thoroughly enjoyed by ' all who attended them. The choir consisted of 57 voices, from sopranoes to basses and each voice added that special sound to the harmonious intonation which the choir was so famous for. Of course, the choir did other things besides preparing for concerts. They sponsored such events as the annual pancake feed, and the sing-a-grams during Christmas for those who wanted to send something special for only a quarter. Another major project which the choir was involved in demonstrated the special talents which the choir members possessed. This was the musical production of Camelot. Many of the actors involved in this production were members of the choir and held many of the leading roles, including the roles of Lancelot, King Arthur, and Queen Guinevere. The choir also sponsored several fund raisers such as a car wash held in the spring. They also sang at various businesses for special occasions like the Daily News Miner's annual Christmas party. Something new which the choir started was the formation of a jazz choir which consisted of a few select choir members who performed various pop and jazz tunes at concerts. With so much talent, it was easy to understand why West took so much pride in their concert choir. -rf , .4 W f .keg ' M 4 j.., I j, , .,,, , H,-,Q In complete harmony, the choir rehearses yet another song. 90 CHOIR WITH MUSIC IN THEIR SOULS THE CHOIR UPHELD THEIR TR DITION OF EXCELLENCE .... - .- ., .

The red, white, and black uniformed Wolfpack Marching Band was once again the highlight of the Golden Days Parade and home football games, Directed by George Wiese and led by drum majors Mike Caciari and Todd England, the band marched into another triumphant musical season. This versatile group provided musical school spirit at home basketball and hockey games and, in a more demanding vein, presented five public performances. These performances featured works from composers as dissimilar as Bach and Leonard Bernstein, and ranging from classical to contemporary. The Wolfpack Band shared a first ever combined concert with the Lathrop Malemute Band, and exhibited its usual superb musical talent at the Alaska State Music Festival in Fairbanks, The West Band was represented at All- State by 16 outstanding musicians. One especially gifted musician, Bill Cox, even made it to All Northwest.
