Next month, some of the best young musicians in the area will gather together for a special performance as the Grant County Public High School Honor Band.
The public is invited to come out and enjoy this special performance, set for Tuesday, March 17, at the Chapel Auditorium at Indiana Wesleyan University. Admission is free!
The Grant County Honor Band will feature 79 of the area’s top music students, selected from each of Grant County’s five public high schools, Eastbrook, Madison-Grant, Marion, Mississinewa, and Oak Hill.
This year’s guest conductor is Bryan Ames, Director of Bands at Plymouth High School.
