The ensembles in the North Hills High School music department recently completed a very successful performance tour to Williamsburg, Virginia at the Music in the Parks competition.  Over 275 students performed in 10 ensembles, representing our band, choral, and orchestra programs, each earning a Superior rating from the adjudicators.  Ratings and rankings were as follows:
 
String Orchestra: superior/first place
Chamber Orchestra: superior/first place
Jazz Band: superior/first place
Wind Ensemble: superior/first place
Wind Symphony: superior/first place
Symphonic Concert Band: superior/second place
Marching Band: superior/first place
Women’s Choir: superior/second place
Symphonic Choir: superior/second place
North Hills Singers: superior/first place
 
Additionally, individual and group awards were presented:
 
Outstanding Jazz Soloist: Jared Adams
Best Overall Orchestra: Chamber Orchestra
Best Overall Jazz Band: Jazz Band
Best Overall Marching Band: Marching Band
Best Overall Choral Ensemble: North Hills Singers
 
While on the tour, students were given the opportunity to learn about the history of one of our oldest settlements at Colonial Williamsburg.  As part of the Music in the Parks festival, they were able to spend a day at Busch Gardens, riding their way through “countries” around the world. Finally, they spent a short time near the ocean at Virginia Beach.
 
Music in the Parks provides music festivals for bands, orchestras, choirs and other student music groups. Its mission is to bring together students and adjudicators in a positive learning environment that will inspire the students to strive not only for excellence, but to make music a lifelong activity.
