Band and Orchestra Excel in Chicago
Band and orchestra students traveled to Chicago to participate in the Chicago Heritage Festival, where their performance earned a Gold rating, the festival’s highest honor.
In addition, Haadi Ranjha ’27 was recognized with an Outstanding Soloist award for his exceptional individual performance on the French horn.
