The MTHS Performing Arts Showcase rocked the band room on Thursday night, Feb 1st. Traditionally a night for the WMEA State Solo & Ensemble Contest participants to do a dress rehearsal, we opened the floor to all talented performers interested in taking the stage.
We had 18 total acts featuring 30 amazing performers who entertained a full house for 90 minutes. The stage was lit with everything from singing acts backed by electric or acoustic guitars to some killer backing tracks. We covered all the genres from soulful ballads to pop hits and even got a taste of some original compositions.
The night wasn’t just about vocals. We had a violin duet, an amazing trombone solo, a rocking drum solo and a flute trio that left us wanting more. And let’s not forget the clarinet groups – a quartet and a quintet – bringing some serious harmonious vibes to the mix. For those craving some edge, a metal duo with bass and guitar wrapped up the set. It was loud, wild and epic!
Our second Performing Arts Showcase of the year was a blast. The talent at our school is diverse and inspiring.
A big shout out to all of the performers and good luck to our solo and ensemble performers playing this weekend at the WMEA State Solo & Ensemble Contest at Lynnwood High School, Saturday Feb 3rd, 8a-6p. Come out to support these talented musicians!
