Kudos and congratulations to the more than 200 student musicians from South High School, O'Neill Middle School and Jefferson Junior High School who participated this evening in the 2012 Fall Invitational Band Concert. Directed by Mr. Dave Balika, the OMS Band performed with musical passion and exuberance. Directed by Keith Carlson, the JJHS Band performed a diverse program with extreme elegance. Finally, the acclaimed South HS Wind Ensemble performed a challenging program, ranging in age from 1785 to 2011, ranging in style from classical to contemporary, from jazz to traditional marches. Based on the sounds heard in the auditorium tonight from the OMS and JJHS bands, the sonic future is bright indeed for the Mustang Bands!
