Jazz Band held an informational meeting on Monday, November 17th at 3:30p.m., and officially started on Thursday, November 20th. They will be holding practices twice a week every week with one before school and one after school. Throughout the year they will have three concerts that anyone can attend. Chris Truckenmiller, Jazz Band’s instructor, said that students can still join by November 25th if they didn’t make it to the meeting.
Jazz Band will be performing in three concerts this year. The dates are January 19th, March 5th, and April 2nd, which is the last day of Jazz Band for the year. Students enjoy Jazz Band and getting to spend time with people with the same interests as them. “Jazz Band is a fun way to experience being a part of something plus it’s really cool,” said Junior Anna Baldwin.
“I love being able to goof around with the students and see them perfect a piece. It’s more personal getting to know each other in Jazz Band and it takes music to a whole new level,” Truckenmiller said about his leadership for the past two years.
