bored2damax Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 Hey i was just reading a post and they were talking about chair placements. Wel l do most band have a chair test?? My high school doesnt have chair test, we only have a band placement test. I use to have them when I was in middle school. Thats all i was just curious. Quote
TRtrumpet Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 We never have them... the only reason we had trumpet chair tryouts was cus there was certion 2nd trumpet complaing that he should be a 1st. We dont have band placement tryouts either bus there's just one band. Quote
chsgpband06 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Hey yeah i mean i am so glad that we had auditions for the second semester. I mean we have some people who are having trouble in the top band and now i think it is going to help Quote

And we also have the region music (a cut) for the chair placement, except that it's also our major playing grade (which nobody really thinks about-it's all about chair order for us) Quote
TRtrumpet Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Well im first chair pretty much cus our other 2 alto's... hmmm how do i say this nicely............. For marcing season im 2nd chair trumpet. If I stick with trumpet for marching next year, I'll be first chair. Quote
twizzlaar Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 we have 3 cuts of our district music, and each cut is a chair test. I have been first each time. but other than that, i don't remember having many chair tests last year. if we have a heard spot in our concert music, our director might have us pass it off and might make it a chair test, but other than that, not much.

Babette Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 We basically just have a band placement test at the high school. Just before marching season is over, we have our auditions and our chair and band is decided by the performnacne. The only way you can change chairs is to challenge. At the JH, we had chair tests alot though. Quote
TRtrumpet Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Were supposed to have chair test after christmas break on the region music. Quote
