Wind Ensemble 1 Chosen for National Spotlight |
|
|
|
|
It is with great pride and gratitude that I am pleased to announce Amador Valley's Wind Ensemble 1 was chosen to perform at the 67th Annual Midwest Clinic in Chicago, December 2013. This is arguably the highest honor a school music program can receive. They are one of just four high school bands chosen from across the country and the first from California to perform at the conference in 11 years.
The conference hosts between 11,000-13,000 attendees each December. Our performance will shine a national spotlight on not only Amador's music program, but on all of the outstanding achievements at our school.
So proud of my students for all that they have accomplished and all the journey we have in front of us.
- Jonathan Grantham, Director of Bands |
