Band Concert - Junior High Night

Mesa High had a band concert which featured the local junior high schools. Taylor, Brimhall, and Mesa Jr. were invited to attend this concert. I remembered last year when Josh came last year to perform on the MHS stage as a junior high student.  This year, Josh performed with the Jazz Band Combo (an after school club), the combined Jazz Bands, and the combined Symphonic Band and Wind Ensemble.  Josh did an amazing  improvisational solo with the Jazz Band Combo.  It was his first solo on the MHS stage and was the highlight of the night for me and Josh received a lot of compliments.  Mr. Quamo conducted this concert while Mr. Brooks stayed home with his new baby boy.  Ashley is in the Wind Ensemble and since she is first chair, I always get great pics of her.  I love that Josh and Ashley can perform together on the same stage.  It was an amazing concert with a lot of incredible talent.
