Origin Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Congrats Wakeland on an amazing season!!! (Even if it didn’t end as originally planned). I guess I was spot on when I said Wakeland had the advantage in visual and percussion and that Keller would put up a good fight for music. Dallas Hobbs 1 Quote

Probably placing higher than many people have had them in their predictions up to this point, we’ll see! Dallas Hobbs and peshbandkid 2 Quote

I was calling it “funny” because at BOA they don’t list them out all at once even if there’s only 1 band in that class, they do them one at a time. It was different. People chuckled when the announcer called the 4A and 5A awards all at once Expand How was Canyon as the only 4A band? Quote

I personally thought the woodwinds were stronger than the brass, but the judges may have disagreed, idk the scores and ordinal ranks. Canyon has good performers, just not as much balance in their sound compared to the bigger bands like Wakeland, where it sounded like every performer maintained the same level of intensity. Sometimes Canyon’s brass was a little tentative with their starts. I think because the other groups ensemble sounds are so much louder/stronger and the bigger bands are capable of more complex drill formations, Canyon being a smaller band couldn’t get into finals. I loved that bat cave thing where the guard was upside down then jumped down to enter the field. They did a good job staying in character! it was a shame the bassoonist’s mic didn’t work in either prelims or finals. I wanted to hear her play! I was a bassoonist in high school too! I loved how she stayed in character regardless! LKendrick and RaElk99 1 1 Quote

Expand Similar to Lake Ridge, they clearly have a strong concert band program. They play all of their material very confidently and professionally. I especially liked the in the hall of the mountain king movement. I was impressed by how well each woodwind section executed their part, really good control from the high woodwinds in the upper register 8th-note phrases, and confident playing from the saxes and low reeds. I liked those little ornaments the brass did in their playing! Very creative. And the low brass handled their part so well, very controlled sounds coming from that section when they could’ve easily played their parts splatty. They’re a band that’s comfortable with featuring any section which is impressive. I think the reason they got 10th was because they were more conservative with their drill formations and simultaneous playing while marching. The top two bands, Keller and Wakeland, were much stronger in this department by comparison. And those two groups took higher risks with their music: More double tonguing in the brass, more woodwind runs, all done at a faster tempo while on the move. And at a well controlled, louder volume.

1998-2018 Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 They’re up now…on Tuesday. It’s been awhile since they were uploaded the night of the contest, and initially waiting until Sunday morning seemed reasonable. Then that slipped to Monday. Now apparently we’re waiting until Tuesday?!? I know posting the recaps won’t change the outcome of the contest, but it does help explain the outcome and it’s taking longer and longer to get posted with each passing year. Quote
