DGN Alumnus Kristin Bowers - NYC Macy's Fireworks Soundtrack

DGN Band Alumnus and Unites States Air Force Band Principal Clarinetist, Kristin Bowers, performs tonight in New York City as the USAFB will provide the soundtrack for the largest fireworks display in our nation.

This 6 minute video is an inspiring look behind the scenes to see how the music - and the pyrotechnics - are a collaborative and creative venture as this production is planned to celebrate our nation's Independence Day.

Enjoy viewing, and Happy Fourth of July!

FINE ARTS DEPARTMENT PHILOSOPHY

The philosophy of the North High School Fine Arts Department faculty is to offer students a well-rounded curricular experience that includes exposure to genres of music, theatre, and visual art in a wide variety of creative settings. Program goals that serve as tenets for the North High School Fine Arts Department faculty are: To provide a productive and cooperative learning environment in which students of various backgrounds and ability levels may learn to achieve outstanding artistic results; To intentionally study music, theatre and visual art from cultures and communities that have been historically under-represented; To engage students in a journey toward artistic and personal success at the highest level; To develop in young people the appreciation, discrimination, analysis, and participation skills necessary to become lifelong consumers of the arts.
