HOMETOWN HEADLINES
JOURNAL STAFF WRITER
FLINT The Mott Middle College High School Concert Steel Band took top honors at the Heritage Music Festival held recently in Chicago. The band won the gold award for a score of 90 or above, the adjudicators trophy for a score of 95 or above and the outstanding band trophy for the highest score of all groups. The competition included 14 bands and orchestras from eight different states. This was the fifth time the MMC band has competed in the event. The group earned the highest score in each of the previous Heritage Festivals as well. The 10-student band's director is James Coviak, who also is director of Steelheads Percussion Ensemble and Steel Band, a collaborative venture of Mott Middle College, Mott Community College and the University of Michigan-Flint. The percussion ensemble has been recognized for excellence in concerts across North America and Europe. It was also featured as the cover story in the November 2003 issue of School Band and Orchestra magazine. |
