Behind the Scenes of the Band Competition

No one expected much from Locke High at the L.A. Unified School District's band competition. After all, they're just a so-so school in Watts.

But they have a couple of tricks up their band uniforms.

They're playing complicated Stephen Sondheim music from "Sweeney Todd." The band director is an inspirational taskmaster. And the kids are determined to prove that their school is as good as any other school anywhere.
