Falcon Band

This year (2007-2008), the band has about 175 students, and is under the direction of Head Director Denis Kidwell, and Assistants Robert Carlin and Laura Buntin. They are also assisted by the percussion specialists Johnathan Carr and John MacDonald.

In the Spring, students divide into three competing bands: Symphonic I, Symphonic II, and Concert I. With these bands, they perform at such events as the Chili Supper and the Spring Concert, as well as performing at UIL events and at the South Coast Music Festival in Corpus Christi.

Students in the Falcon Band also have the oppurtunity to compete and perform individually. In the Fall, students compete in All Region Band and Orchestra contests, and in the Spring, they are able to perform in the UIL Solo and Ensemble Contest. In each of these, band members represent their school proudly by achieving success at the highest levels.
