Middle school musicians

The sixth, seventh and eighth grade bands from Denison Middle School performed its spring concert at the Denison High School Fine Arts Center on April 5. For the two lower grade bands, the concert marked only the second time they had played the music as complete groups. The sizes of the sixth and seventh grade bands prevent them from rehearsing as full units except for the rehearsals prior to a concert. Each of the three bands played four songs. Peter Bekkerus and Ryan Meyer were the directors.
