Congratulations to the Warsaw Middle School Beginning Band on a fantastic first concert. The concert took place on Monday, Oct. 6, at the Lakeview Auditorium.
The 72 member band performed selections from their band book, as well as full band arrangements such as ” When the Saints Go Marching In” and “Majestic March.”
During the performance, all sections of the band were featured by performing a special musical selection. Parents were encouraged to come up to the stage and take pictures when their child’s section played.
“The students have worked very hard in preparing for their performance and I wanted parents and friends to have the opportunity to celebrate and take pictures to remember their child’s first concert,” stated Joseph Peloza, middle school band director.
Upcoming performances by the Warsaw Middle School Bands will be on Tuesday, Nov. 11, as they pay tribute to Veterans, and Thursday, Dec. 8, as they perform their Christmas Concert. Both concerts will take place at Lakeview Middle School and start at 7 p.m.
