The Chino High School Music Department is made up of many groups including the 77TH Cavalry Marching Band, which is an 9-time SCSBOA Field Competition Champion as well as the 3-time Fiesta Bowl Grand Master National Band Champion. The Cavalry was honored to march in 113th annual Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena and is the 4-time winner of the “Tournament of Champions". Concert Groups include the Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band, Concert Band, Jazz Ensemble, Indoor Percussion, Chorale, and Tour Choir. In 2010 both the Pageantry and Marching Percussion became World Class Finalists at the WGI World Championships for the first time. The Pageantry is a 3-time World Class Finalist, a 7-time WGI Open Class Finalist, the bronze medalist winner at the WGI World Championships in 2005 and the WGASC Open Class gold medalist in 2005 and 2008. The music department works to set a high standard of excellence, our goal being to inspire audiences with entertaining programs. It has been my pleasure to be the director of the Chino High School Music Department for the past thirty-two years.
