After the delay of their performance due to weather conditions, the Redhawks band is coming back together on Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. with a twist to previous concerts.

“This performance is different from all other concerts because this is just smaller ensembles of students,” assistant director of bands Cecily Yoakam said. “It also gives students in Wind Ensemble an opportunity to focus on small ensembles they wouldn’t normally get to perform in.”

The Wind Ensemble band will be divided into multiple groups based on instrument with each group playing their own music.

“I’m super excited about the midwinter concert,” junior Andrew Wang said. “This is my first one in the top band and we do ensembles instead of full band.”

All brass players will be playing together in a brass band, while each woodwind instrument will perform in their own small ensemble.

“I feel excited to be able to perform so many times with such an amazing band,” senior Lily Peinhardt said. “These pieces are beautiful and I’m elated to share them with others.”

Despite their short performance, Wang can’t wait to perform the cool music he has been working on in class.

“We only play one piece since we’re a brass ensemble,” Wang said. “Plus we are only an in between performance but our music is really cool.”

The purpose of splitting up the band is to introduce them to new kinds of music and allow them to experience a unique band setting.

“The goal for students is for them to be exposed to different types of music,” Yoakam said. “Performing in smaller ensembles which heightens accountability for the individual player because it requires a different skill than just performing in the comfort of a normal band setting.”
