McBee High Music
Program on Track |
The
McBee
High School music
program is on track for success under the
leadership of director Matthew
Crawley.
The program has made great strides since the
beginning of school, according to
Crawley. Beginning Band classes
have been formed with approximately 40
students acquiring instruments and beginning
the steps to master them, a Concert Choir
has been established, and the school has its
first marching band in several years.
After-school rehearsals, master classes
have been added to the daily schedule and
this year the program will send students to
audition for South Carolina region and all-state bands for
the first time in almost a decade. A music
academy will also be established soon.
The Marching Band and its 35 members made
their public debut at the Cheraw Christmas
Parade on Nov. 22. In addition, the group
marched in the
Chesterfield and
Patrick Christmas Parades.
The Electric Ensemble, McBee High's unique
rock band, has also continued to develop
into a respected musical group. This group
has served as the school’s pep band and is
scheduled to perform at the McBee High Band
and Chorus Christmas Concert on Dec. 16.
