This year’s band, under the direction of Mr. Sutor, is larger and more diverse than it has been in previous years. The musicians comprising the band are even­ ly distributed throughout the grade levels in the upper school. Instruments played by the band members range from trumpet and flute to timpani, sousaphone and or­ chestral bells. Because of its advance­ ments in technique and ability the band could perform Chariots of Fire by Vange- lis at the holiday concert. This spring the band performed an arrangement of Mous- sorgsky’s Pictures from an Exhibition and Alvamar Overture by James Barnes. The overture is the hardest and longest piece the band has ever played. As Mr. Sutor stated, "I am extremely impressed with this year’s band.” Some band members accompanied the Chorale in its perfor­ mance and played at the graduation in June.
