After a quiet, relaxing "Wednesday Night Visit" the band students returned to the Armory to get to work. The team drew in a full house and was able to accomplish another solid performance. Under the direction of Marilyn Theis, the concert opened with a band performance featuring such songs as: “Spontaneous Combustion”, “Fly Me to the Moon”, and a trumpet solo by James Clark “Velvet Rain”. The band finished the evening with the classic “Moondog” and bowed to the crowd.
     After the band performance was a violin duet. Junior Kyle Svingen and sophomore Min Ho Chang performed “Allegro” which was outstanding. “I was really glad our duet went well,” said Svingen, “I was a little nervous before the performance, but I have gotten used to that.”
     Following the duet performance was the string ensemble that performed pieces from Fiddler on the Roof. The ensemble was perfectly performed and the team was happy with the night. “I really thought we did well tonight,” said senior guitarist Reid Anderson, “the strings definitely were on their ‘A’ game tonight.”
      Overall the band students proved that their work in the early mornings really does pay off. “Getting up early to go sing and play guitar are not so much fun,” said senior Brian Vovk, “put the performances really show the work.”
