Video: 1st of 2 concerts this week for Madison Middle School

Led by music director Clark Bathum, that’s the Madison Middle School Senior Band performing Robert W. Smith‘s ‘Encanto,’ one of the selections from the school’s high-scoring recent trip to the Music in the Parks festival in Idaho. We recorded the video last night during the spring band concert, which also included the Junior Band:

On Thursday night – 7 pm in the Madison Commons – the school’s jazz band and orchestra perform their spring concert; free, and you’re invited.

      We’ve actually had lots of it this year (I think my favorite visit there was for the assembly at which they celebrated the counselors/advisors award and the School of Distinction Award – a pep rally for academics! there was a music performance too). We very much appreciate folks at all the local schools sharing everything from story tips to event listings to photos to success stories … and are looking forward to even more next year! – TR

    Thanks for shooting and posting this! Mr. Bathum really deserves some credit for wrangling all the music students he wrangles into multiple cohesive, finely-tuned units. The parent part of this family is sad to be moving on from Madison and his excellent music program. The child part is simply rolling her eyes right now and muttering something under her breath.

Sorry, comment time is over.
