Music
Lisgar has a huge selection of ensembles to take part in. These include Symphonic Band, Wind Ensemble, Senior Orchestra, Choir, and Jazz Bands. In total, there are 10 different groups. These groups take part in many music competitions, including Kiwanis, where Lisgar often takes home gold. Every year, there are two major performances given by all the ensembles, Winter and Spring Music Nights (in December and May). At these performances, students have the chance to demonstrate the skills they have achieved throughout the year to the parents. Each year, it is a huge success.

Famous quotes containing the word music:
“Did the kiss of Mother Mary
Put that music in her face?
Yet she goes with footstep wary,
Full of earth’s old timid grace.”

“Through music the passions enjoy themselves.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
