Antigo marching band featured in showcase
RHINELANDER — The sounds of marching bands will soon fill the air in Rhinelander as five local high school ensembles bring their music, movement and school spirit to the fourth annual Northwoods Marching Showcase on Saturday. The Antigo High School Marching Red Robins will be featured along with marching bands from Rhinelander, Medford, Lakeland and DC Everest giving audiences a chance to see the precision, energy and creativity that go into a field performance. According to Antigo High School Band Director Isaac Smith, this is Antigo’s second year performing in the showcase. “The reason why they started this showcase was to give the bands in our area another opportunity to perform,” he explained. “The other competitions are quite far away and difficult for us to make.” Smith said the band will be performing its halftime show and at the end of the showcase, all of the participating schools will be playing some tunes together. “It’s a really cool event for us,” he said. “It’s kind of like we just get to score our football performance. I think the other bands do it that way, too.” The Antigo High School marching band, Smith said, practices incredibly hard to prepare for the

Milwaukee Symphony Returns to Rhinelander in Northern Wisconsin Tour
In Wednesday’s (9/30) WJFW (Rhinelander, Wisconsin), Ethan Krinke reports, “The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra used to come up to Rhinelander once per year, but eventually stopped due to logistical and scheduling challenges. Thanks to many organizations and private donors, the orchestra returned to Rhinelander this week to play for audiences of all ages in separate concerts…. The orchestra played for middle school students at Rhinelander High School on Wednesday morning. President of the orchestra, Mark Niehaus, knows that a performance like this could be the inspiration for young kids to become musicians. ‘For many of these kids, it’s going to be the first time they have heard a professional orchestra or even an orchestra period,’ Niehaus said…. For the middle school students, the orchestra gave them a taste of Beethoven, ‘William Tell’ Overture, music from ‘Harry Potter’ and ‘Wicked.’… Niehaus said, ‘Nowadays, so much music is electronic and premade and everything that happens on this stage with this orchestra happens in real time by real people with real instruments.’ The orchestra also played a full concert for the public on Tuesday and later played an intimate chamber concert at Nicolet College Wednesday. The orchestra plans to return to Rhinelander every year in the foreseeable future.”
