Hurst's L.D. Bell High School marching band is preparing to perform at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2025.
The L.D. Bell Blue Raider Band will travel to New York City next year to play for its biggest audience, by farThe goal of practice is to make a hard performance look easy."So you're talking about marching in time, playing in time, dancing in time, while also memorizing all the movement all of the music."
The marching band is preparing to perform at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2025. That's more than a year away, but practice starts now."It just gives me chills sometimes, you know," trombone player Nicolas Barrientos said."We're going all the way from New York over here from Texas!" The 'Bell Band' is one of about a dozen high school marching bands chosen to perform in next year's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the only band from Texas.
"Which is a huge honor, because Texas has many of the best band programs in the country," L.D. Bell High School Director of Bands Suzanne Dell said."This is just gonna be an opportunity to just go and perform and have a great time doing something at a really high level with all of your friends at one of the most iconic events.""Because it's obviously a pretty big financial commitment to get to New York City, spend a week there," Dell said.
