For the first time in recent history, BOTH Symphonic Band and Wind Ensemble received straight first division superior ratings FROM ALL 6 JUDGES at Wednesday’s UIL Concert & Sightreading Evaluation! THANK YOU PARENTS for your support with sectionals, lessons, and especially to the chaperones that helped out. Both judges and directors were impressed with the amount of parents we had show up in droves in support of our performances yesterday! This was truly a group effort and we could not have done it without your help!

We are so proud of our students’ efforts for the past few months and they are truly superior musicians! But don’t just take my word for it – here are some comments directly from the judges from both bands:
- “This band has good attention to precision and clarity and a good uniform rhythmic approach.”
- “Excellent learning and teaching is evident!”
- “You played with great maturity and confidence on some tough music.”
- “Very mature sounds coming from this group – good listening within your section and the ensemble as a whole.”
- “We are here to make music and you succeeded in making it an enjoyable experience for your audience.”
- Any my personal favorite: “This is a remarkable collection of musicians who are clearly dedicated to the highest standards of performance!!!”
Congratulations to both bands for a truly superior performance!
