The Savanna High School Band & Pageantry program has
represented Savanna High School, the Anaheim Union High School District
(AUHSD), and the City of Anaheim, California, in public appearances
and competitive performances since its inception in 1961.
The "Mighty Marching Rebels" have performed at
major corporate fundraisers, local amusement parks, various City of Anaheim
events and functions, parties and banquets, music festivals in California and
Hawaii, and some of the most competitive band reviews and field tournaments in
the State of California.
Individual members of the groups have also performed with
the All-Southern California Honor Band, the All-State Honor Band, the Tournament
of Roses Honor Band, the First-Chair Honor Band, the Orange County Youth
Symphony, as well as outstanding drum & bugle corps such as the Santa Clara
Vanguard, the Blue Devils, Pacific Crest, and the Velvet Knights.
A few "notable" Savanna Band graduates include Dr.
Mitchell Fennell, Director of Bands at Cal State Fullerton; Mark Gunderson,
Director of Bands at Los Altos HS; Ernie Miranda, Director of Bands at Upland
HS; and Stuart Pompel, Executive Director of the
Pacific Crest Youth Arts Organization.
