December in Band Land

12/14/2016

0 Comments

 
There are not many times busier then December for our program. The month started with the first annual District 308 Jazz Festival at Oswego East High School. All three jazz bands performed, and then received clinics from Reggie Thomas, Rich Moore, and Jim Stombres.
Then, our music program got some
great news: three of our students were named to All-State!!! Senior percussionist Jared Johnson, Senior flute player Eileen Fey (for the second straight year) and senior vocalist Sarah Obert will be making music with the best students in the state in January.

And then, of course, Crystals. All four shows sold out, and over two thousand people braved some rough weather to see this annual production. Our parents really chipped in and worked overtime to ensure the continued success of this Oswego tradition.
