Indoor Percussion Band to perform on Thursday

The Indoor Percussion Band will perform at 7 p.m. Thursday at the Wildcat Arena on the campus of El Dorado High School.

According to Alexander Michaels, Jazz Band director for Barton Junior High School, this free public performance is beging held to thank the community for its gracious support and to wrap up a great indoor season.

The Indoor Percussion Band has evolved its style, incorporating more complex drill design and choreography, which creates a powerful effect on its listeners, Michaels said. The band uses custom-made props, uniforms and drum covers to help drive home its theme. The band's skill and creativity helped them score a 68.7, winning best in class in their last competition.

Michaels said he could not have done it without the members of the band and their hard work and the many teachers that helped him juggle the tasks and demands.
