The high school music students have collaborated with Mrs. Lovelace to create a musical revue featuring everything from solo acts to full chorus numbers. Our show celebrates the resilience of our Depew music family as we look ahead to a brighter future in the Promise of Tomorrow.
Recording Release: June 16
In addition to our live-streamed performances, the music department is excited to share several recording projects.
Jazz Ensemble - Mrs. Serrano & Mrs. Czosnyka
The middle school and high school jazz ensembles have joined forces through early morning rehearsals to create a recording of Chuck Mangione’s Land of Make Believe arranged by Mike Story and Jerry Lordan’s Apache arranged by John Berry.
Fourth grade band students are eager to share their first totally independent performance! Mike Hannickel’s Freaky Fantasy includes a variety of nontraditional techniques, perfect for this nontraditional school year.
Much like this school year, Ms. Doebler and the 5th grade band dove headfirst into a song unique to anything they had experienced before. Students described Midnight Mission by Brian Balmages as “adventurous”, “spooky”, and “suspenseful.” They hope that the music takes you on a journey that is “simple, yet exciting.”
Elementary Chorus - Mr. Miller
In true blue Depew form, the 4th & 5th grade chorus has rallied together to record Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’! Mr. Miller and his musicians want to share a message of inspiration for all our Wildcats as we conquer this unique year of challenges and look hopefully to 2021-22.
One project this year for the High School Band students involved recording Alan Silvestri’s theme from The Avengers arranged by Johnnie Vinson and featuring a video of our students and their heroes.
