TMEA All-State 2007-08

[SerialSleeper90]

wow thats... thats kinda scary.

[bonepit06-07]

trombone pieces are a piece of cake right trombones?

 

I hope Berkins picks these pieces more often

[sax5warrior]

Region 20 has a North and South zone..

 

The etudes on saxophone are becoming easier, but thats because im getting lessons from my ex director...for free

arrrgggh!!! lol

 

3rd overall

 

I played #37 for my last etude. then, messed up the last line of the cut, the easy part too.

 

kinda takes a little pressure off. even though last night didn't count, the others will be have the knowledge that i'll be gunning for that first chair.

 

also, for saturday, i won't be stretching stuff and taking liberties with the etudes like i did last night...heh.

 

 

 

 

also:

 

Pasadena Memorial also got 1,3,5 for trumpets and 1 for flutes.

[SerialSleeper90]

I hate #37. I will be covering my ears for the entire auditioning of etude #37 so I can take it as slowww as I want. lol. On an opposite note, the other technical etude just seems to come so naturally to me. Do any of you other netters get that feeling for the other technical etude?

What do you play, anyway?

[SerialSleeper90]

Ok now you are just confusing me.

[borchnork]

omg, so Dr. Holt is the most amazing flute teacher EVER!!!!

 

I had a 1 hr lesson with her today over region music, and now it sounds AMAZING... Granted I still miss quite a few notes in the Karg-Elert etude, the level of musicality she taught me to play with... WOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!

 

If I can nail the notes tomorrow, I know I'll be ok.

i love the second half of the first page of #37. from after the scale up to high D to the end of the page.

 

#10 is fun. my teacher wanted it at 120, but of course, that would be too much over the marked tempo. 106-108 for saturday.

Seriously. Just ignore that last post. I came back and wow. How did I miss that? Clarinet. Wow. I think this may qualify as one of the stupidest moments I've ever had. Haha.

[ClaireAnnette07]

Aw, I miss region! I feel so lazy lol

 

Andy, don't feel bad about getting 3rd. You know you'll do better on Saturday. Isn't this what happened last year, too? You'll do great! Congrats on making region again!

[b_sax_agent]

does anyone know what TMEA is pklanning on playing for All State music?

 

I know that one band is playing Kingfischer Catches Fire by John Mackey( Goodness, they must love him)

 

but anyone know anymore?

[takigan]

The clinicians don't have to select the music until like, after Area competitions, so we probably won't know for awhile.

[bonepit06-07]

oh that interesting i kinda hope somebody plays some copeland or something from richard saucedo

[the_DRUM_MAJOR]

andy, who placed first for clarinet?

[TRtrumpet]

We have all region tomorrow... But ours is ATSSB. I guess it's easier? I've never tried out, but I'm feeling pretty confident.

[ClarinetGlissandoInBlue]

= some girl named alyssa from Kingwood Park got first, Cody Gibson got second for tuesday night. however, cody tells me that andrew of DP got first. *shrug

 

= thanks sarah!

[borchnork]

I made 5th... missed Area by one chair.

 

But considering I haven't auditioned for region in 2 years, I say that's pretty good, especially because last time around I made 18th. =]

[titancoaster]

Third chair in Phase 1 and phase 2 is TOMORROW!! and I'm really hoping I can get top 5 to make area, I think I can do it, but I just need to play musically

[Fata1]

Yeah, fifth chair definitely isn't bad.

 

I have region a week from tomorrow. I'm not sure how many horns advance to area. I hope I'm one of though. I'm going for state.

[bonepit06-07]

i got 7th chair heading into phase 2 so ive got some work to do to stay up there well see what happens

[ClarinetGlissandoInBlue]

I wish all of us that have auditions tomorrow, good luck!

[borchnork]

Yes, best of luck to everybody!!!!!

 

I want as many people from this forum making state as possible!
