In a difficult season (to put it mildly), the Glen Ridge Marching Band rose up to the challenge and finished their season exceptionally strong with their 2020 show, PETER AND THE WOLF: They placed fifth in their division (Div 1) at the US Bands National Grand Finale and 3rd with an incredible score of 97 in Creative Class.
Because of the pandemic, all Grand Finale performances were recorded on video and sent in to the USBands judging committee for review instead of USBands judging live performances. While this was another challenge, it also created a unique opportunity for creativity with how the video was edited and presented. Sophomore Eli Fellus, Saxophonist and Soloist, put together an exceptionally fun and creative way to present the show which certainly played a part in helping this exceptional group of students do so well this season. You can watch the final video submission below.
Congrats to these incredible students, to Dr. Gage and the amazing staff, to all of the parents who showed up to make props, to roadie, to feed the kids, to help in any way and every way to make this show and season a huge success.
