On February 25th, students from Belleville High School and Middle School traveled to New Glarus to participate in District Solo and Ensemble. The performances ranged from vocal and instrumental solos, to duets, trios, quartets, and even large groups such as Jazz Band, Vocal Jazz, Triple Trio, and Flute Choir.
