OHS Band Brings the Magic to Life with Disney Soundtrack Session The OHS Band had an unforgettable experience participating in a Disney Soundtrack Session with Disney Imagination Campus! Our talented Seminoles had the opportunity to work directly with Disney Representatives to learn and perform several iconic Disney songs. The session gave students a behind-the-scenes look at how music is integrated into Disney films — from the first note to the big screen! Disney Imagination Campus offers amazing opportunities for student groups, including educational workshops and stage performances for groups of 15 or more, and even marching band performances for groups of 40+. This experience truly brought the magic of Disney to life and gave our students a glimpse into the creative world of film and music production. #webleedpurpleandgold
