    Fall Ensemble Program -- Incredible Performances at Fitzgerald’s!

    By Sophie Hall

    Musical Expressions held its Fall Ensemble on December 2nd, 2007 at Fitzgerald’s in Berwyn. All bands did an outstanding job and covered a variety of music such as The White Stripes, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, Neil Young, The Allman Brothers Band, and Phish to name a few. Band mates picked the songs to be performed and practiced for 8 weeks before the final performance at Fitzgerald’s.
