Brownfield band members

band members Braden Conn-Bass, Aubree Valenzuela-Trumpet, and Ryan Gamez-Trombone performed with the ATSSB Region 16 Jazz Bands on Saturday, January 21st. The performances were held in the Helen Devitt Jones Theatre for the Performing Arts on the campus of South Plains College in Levelland, Texas. The students spent the weekend working with renowned jazz educators leading to the Saturday performance. Brownfield Director of Bands, Will Burks, said that this was a great opportunity for students to experience performing truly American music from the jazz idiom. This experience is made possible because of the efforts of the Association of Texas Small School Bands and their efforts to increase exposure of all areas of music performance to members of small school band programs across the state.
