this is the second school i saw this year who used chorale and shaker dance . my concert band played that this year. and our show was the planets. but it was mars, venus, and jupiter
I agree. Very good 4A show. I was a member of Richland High School 2003, who won the 4A Texas State Championship and played Reflections of Earth the following year, along with "Ride."
I'm not sure what you scored, but I can tell you as an educator problems that I saw with your performance. First I would like to say that you have a very strong woodwind section, which is a rare in the marching band world. The were pretty well balanced, and in tune most of the time (especially clarinets...good job!). The bad news is that you weren't very musical: everything was really loud with little, if any, dynamic quality. Also there were a lot of balance problems between the brass.
Your marching was not too bad. I only saw a couple of phasing problems here and there, and you kept your intervals relatively well. I'm not a percussion person, but from what I know there were very few problems. There were sometimes where they got off, but were able to find themselves again. I thought the voice-overs at the beginning of the opener were a little overdone (I think we got the point after the first one). Overall, if I had to rate this performance I would give it b/t an 88-92.
We received a score of 74.80, which is respectable for a band who had started doing field shows just three years ago, this year being their "debut" year in the WBA circuit.
This was awesome. you guys have come really far. this was amazing. i particularly love those moments when the brass shined though. my heart goes out to the drumline and Tim the tuba. hahaha
awesome job guys. i am so proud of you. you have made it so far the past couple of years. i wish i could still be there to be a part of it. congratulations on a very great season. good luck in the winter. see you guys around... you know i'll try my best to pop outta nowhere and see you perform.
jonathon... good job yelling during the opener. jk.
i love the tenors .... so kool .... again, thanx for the season =] ..... drummers, get ready for indoor... we are gonna rape lines with the line >=] ... gay i know, im sry
I just want to say BRAVO to the colorguard who had their most successful year. I know last year they started late with new girls and they did their best. This year they gave those other schools a run for their money!!! You go girls!!!!
Thanks for the compliment! I also enjoyed your band's field show this year. It just so happens that your closer is the same piece I had to conduct for evaluations at Drum Major camp haha fun stuff!
Haha, did you go to Irvine? Our drum majors and our woodwind captain went there. I went there the year before. And one of the drum majors had One More Time as an evaluation piece too! (I'm the brass captain at Gab BTW heheh)
Actually the narration is necessary to explain the plot and the trumpets are not whiny. They are in fact almost too energetic lol Anant if you're reading you know what i mean haha
I bet that if our band was placed in SCSBOA instead of WBA we would have definetly made it to 4A championships. Our scores in SCSBOA would have been like 85-87!!! Also if you look at the previous shows you cann see mucho improvement. Yeah still #1 in the district!
btw 14ptquake. we got great placing for the stuff that we were taught, but the individual execution and judging we got like last place. SO even though percussion did get last place. had we gotten an 80, nothing would have changed... LOL
