Congratulations to the students in the band and choir programs on their incredible performances at this evening's Spring Band & Choir Concert!
In addition to performing music that demonstrated a tremendous amount of musical growth over the course of the year, students in the Wind Ensemble, Symphony Orchestra and Combined Choirs premiered a piece commissioned by the Maine West music program by composer Elena Specht, entitled "The Power of Music." This commission, written for Maine West with input for the lyrics by Maine West students Colin Jones and Nyxx Chavez, was made possible by a generous grant from the Maine Township High School Foundation. Thank you to the D207 Foundation for making this experience possible for our students and community!
Seniors in the band and choir programs were honored with awards for their contributions to the programs throughout their four years at West.
Thank you to the parents who volunteered with the Maine West Fine Arts Boosters at this concert!
