The Tyrone indoor percussion ensemble performed at Westmont Hilltop High School this past weekend and placed first in their division with a total score of 75.80. The indoor percussion group achieved a 10.8 point jump over two weeks of not performing at a show and rehearsing and perfecting the show for future performances.

 “I’m very happy with our jump in score and we are simply continuing to add more onto the show and improve our musicality and ability to work together each week.” said Band Director David Hock.
