Washington and Como Bands Hold Joint Performance at Football Game

More than 50 student musicians filled an entire section of the bleachers, energizing the crowd with spirited performances of both schools’ fight songs. This collaboration gave students a unique opportunity to connect with peers from another school, share musical traditions, and perform as one united ensemble.
