Wednesday, Novem- ber 22 will find the concert bands of Wingham, Goderich, Exeter and Clinton high schools joining for a half day of workshops, rehearsals and a concert. The culmination of the day's work will be a public concert at 7:30 in Central Huron Secondary School's auditorium. This concert will showcase each separate band and the combining of all four bands into a massed group of some 150 young instrumentalists. The day's activities are the brain -child of the schools' music teachers. This year John Matthews, Al Mullin, Rob Robilliard and Sue Wyatt are pleased to present this evening's concert. The massed band will be con- ducted by Prof. David Smith, of the Faculty .of Music, University of Western Ontario. While the massed band will oc- cupy much of the space in the- CHSS auditorium, there is still plenty of room for an audience. The students are becoming more skilled as musicians each year, and the concert promises to be a musi- cal treat. Go and enjoy it. Like Christmas, it happens only once a year.
