Dear Leon Band alumni and friends,

I’m writing this letter to report on the progress of the Leon High School Band this year. It is a tribute to the efforts of the students, their parents, and the current Band Director, Mr. David Thornton, that in my judgment, the Band is as good or better than it has ever been in its history. Evidence of this are the ratings they earned at the District and State FBA Festivals the last 2 years, and the fact that they were invited to and performed stunningly at the CBDNA (College Band Directors National Association) Conference at the University Of Mississippi last February. By the way, these performances can be heard on the Band website (www.leonband.com) by using the user name “leonband” & password “redcoats1940" to access the Media Gallery. I think you will be extremely impressed with the superb level of technique and musicianship exhibited there.

Congratulations to the Symphonic Band as they have been selected to play at the 2011 FMEA Conference in Tampa in January.  The group will be one of a few high school bands from across the state of Florida.  Congratulations!
