Spring Concert At Clarke High School The Clarke High School Senior Band in action at last Tuesday's spring concert at the high school. Bill Schoffield is the director. There are about 45 music students from Clarke High School in the band, which will soon be releasing a-record it taped last April. The Clarke High School Senior Choir, accompanied by conductor Bill Schoffield, on bass and Ed Morton on drums. Mr. Schoffield says Clarke's choral music program is unique among area high schools. By Peter Parrott The walls of the Clarke High School gymnasium came alive- to the sounds ot« nusic last Tuesday evening when the school's bands and choirs put on a third annual spring concert. The Clarke musicians had an audience of about 150. There were performances froîn the school's combined choirs, senior choir, junior, intermediate and senior bands and the Clarke High School stage band. Exact figures on how much was made at the concert were not known last Tuesday, but band conductor Bill Schoffield estimated that the band took in about $300. One of the items featured last week was a special composition written for the Clarke 'High School Senior Band by composer Frank, Haworth, of Cobourg. The titie of the piece was "Pine Ridge". As well as Mr. Hawvorth's composition, the 45-member senior band per- 0F 01/59 F/NE OIL TH#YE PUBLIgC RAVE-#,r 0OIrHE WA YIT< HEA TS AND"HOMW THEY S Francis t~fNA'Tennant V'Y Fuels R.R.1, Orono, Onf. 983-5693 formed music ranging from the William Tell Overtune to toe-4apping music i the big band dixieland style. At the close of the concert, the Clarke High School stage band which calîs itself "Just in Time" also'brought back the sounds of the big band era with saxophones, trumpets, trombones and three selections-including "Blue Moon". Made Record Conductor Bill Schoffield told the audience at the concert that some of the selections it had heard would be available on a record the school's musicians have recently made with World Records Ltd. He said'World Records came to the school late in April with a lot of expensive recording equip- ment and taped the school's bands and choirs in a session that began at one in the afternoon and ended late that evening. Mr. Schoffield said the record would be available within the next week or two. It will cost $5.50, and it will be available from the band members. The band hopes to sell more than 300 of the records. Included in the record will be material by the concert band and the stage band. Unique Program Mr. Schoffield said the programa at Clarke is unique for several reasons. For one thing, the high school has its students graded according to performance groups rather than classes. This means that students in the senior band, for example, are all in the same class whether they are in grade nine or thirteen as far as academic subjects are concerned. It also means that the bands get a chance to practice performing in class rather than in special sessions for school. "This is made necessary because of the bussîng system," MIr. Schoffieldsaid: He explained that many students have to go home by bus after classes and they would itut have a chance to stay behind for band pract- ices. With music classes arranged according to per- forming groups, after school sessions aren't needed and students' who normally couldn't take part in extra cirricular music programns cani. Mr. Schoffield added that the high school is also unique because it is one of the few schools in the area teaching choral music, The senior choir, in fact, took two firsts at the Peterborough music festi- val. Music at Clarke began four years ago on what Mr. Schoffield calîs a "ghastly budget". The school was given between six and seven thous- OBITUARIE S ELSIE M.
