2011 - 2012 Marching Band
The Wakefield High School Marching Band is pleased to announce its 2011 production “Obsession”. Inspired by the “Obsessive Love Wheel”, the production will explore the phases a person may go through once they become obsessively in love with a person or object. From attraction to anxiety to obsession and the ultimate destruction, this production will be an exciting departure from recent WHS marching band productions for the audience and performer alike.
The music for this year’s production is an original composition, commissioned for the 2011 WHS Marching Band, by Matthew Nadolny. Wind orchestrations are by Joshua K Potter Color Guard design and choreography are by Shannon Proctor. Drill design is by Steve Hegemier.
