The San Marino High School Instrumental Winter Concert was presented recently in Neher Auditorium. The Jazz Band, String Orchestra, Trumpet Ensemble, Concert Band, Symphonic Orchestra, Clarinet Ensemble and Wind Ensemble had their moment in the spotlight, performing an assortment of seasonal pieces. Director Mark De la Vega expressed his pride in the students’ progress, noting that their growth during the past year has been astounding — indeed both the Jazz Band and Symphonic Orchestra had practiced together only four or five times each. De la Vega added that he expects the groups to continue to perform a challenging repertoire for the San Marino community.
