On Saturday March 1, students from Pioneer Middle and High School joined peers from Fillmore and Holland schools for Brass Day.
Students travelled to Holland High School to participate in music clinics and perform with the Buffalo Silver Brass Band. Students were able to sit alongside adults who played the same instrument, and learn from experts in their field.
Buffalo Brass Band is conducted by Springville G-I band director William Cocca,
In the evening performance portion of Brass Day, students joined the brass band on their last three numbers. They played these pieces: "When I'm Sixty Four", "Michelle" and "Prismatic Light".
According to Pioneer High School band teacher April Woolley, "It was an amazing opportunity for the students to hear and play with a professional group."
