Half-asleep students stepped off of bright yellow school buses on the 23rd and were immediately greeted by the thunderous, yet melodic, band as they serenaded them into the school year.

“We have hundreds of people in band, ” says sophomore Daniil Bukraba-Ulanov. “It was a lot of work to get us all in tune. We’ve been working for a month to prepare [for the performance.]”

Despite the band’s work, some were not entirely pleased with the experience.

“It was loud and it woke me up and I didn’t want to wake up,” said an anonymous sophomore, “but the music was good!”
