Both concerts featured student-led small ensembles, or "chamber groups," before the concert. Here, Abe Peykanu and Yahir Corona perform a duet before the band concert. The two put on "Devil's Waltz" by Steven Verhelst. Peykanu and Corona placed 1st in the small brass ensemble room at the OMEA District 14 Solo & Ensemble festival as an automatic qualifier for the State competition in May.
The air begins to grow warmer, rainclouds constant, and flowers begin to bloom; spring is upon us. It’s time to celebrate the music of Wilsonville High School. On March 18th and 19th, the band and orchestra programs performed their work for audiences made up of friends, family, and music-enjoyers. Bringing together middle school musicians with high schoolers, these concerts always achieve a fostering of community.
The symphonic band, chamber orchestra, and symphony orchestra performed their competition set, which they will perform again at their district festivals in April.
NWOC Band festival: April 17th
SD-5 Orchestra festival: April 10th
