Dressed in Halloween costumes, the Orchestra played an arrangement of music including pieces from The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Dance of the Cobb, and a Jaws during the fall concert on Oct. 26.

As part of the shows finale, Midlothian Middle Orchestra and Orchestra Club students joined the orchestra on stage.

In lieu of a ticket fee, the Orchestra asked attendees to bring a canned good to donate to the local food bank.

In place of an admission fee, they organized a food drive and encouraged attendees to bring canned food that will be brought to the local food bank.

Boosters sold Blanchard’s Coffee before and after the concert as apart of their annual fundraiser to support senior scholarships.

“Even though we had some hiccups, everyone did a great job, especially for our first concert of the year” Orchestra Club President, Alex Kimball, 12, said.
