Dave609 Posted November 2, 2023 Author Posted November 2, 2023 Sulphur Springs HS- This show is really fun to watch! The opener was executed nicely! Movement 2 sounds so nice, the tone and technique were really good musically, some forms were not followed though which sucks :(. I will say, they have had the longest day out of all the bands tonight since they were the 4th band to go in prelims, so its nice to see them give a nice performance! I really enjoyed the ballad as well! That Saxophone quartet is SO good! Overall, I really enjoyed their 2nd performance today! Congratulations to your now 2x State Finalist, Sulphur Springs HS! Quote
Liam Allen Posted November 2, 2023 Posted November 2, 2023 Whew that’s how you end it sulphur springs! Nice power! Quote
Tubalord11 Posted November 2, 2023 Posted November 2, 2023 WOW Sulpher Springs!! Guys I could see that winning lol! By far the loudest sound of the day, they did not play around with that run, should still be a medalist, great job SS! Quote
ViewFromTheBox Posted November 2, 2023 Posted November 2, 2023 Great job, Sulphur Springs! Love Niagra Falls in the closer. So glad I'm not a judge for this contest. Quote
Liam Allen Posted November 2, 2023 Posted November 2, 2023 And as a sax player myself, I would like to personally thank the sax quartet for delivering the best sound I’ve ever heard out of a 4A saxophone quartet. Also I heard an altissimo A?? If so DAAANNNGGGG it was clean! Outstanding! Quote
Dave609 Posted November 2, 2023 Author Posted November 2, 2023 I feel we are going to see a new champion, but its between 3 schools right now XD pushand1 and JazzRun 2 Quote
Dave609 Posted November 2, 2023 Author Posted November 2, 2023 China Spring HS- HELLO CHINA SPRING! That Opener is SO GOOD! Great power and ensemble sound! The design of the props and uniforms are so nice! The French Horn solo was played beautifully and the ballad overall sounded really nice! Also I'm guessing its because of mic placement, but the Bari-Sax players sounded good! Overall, Congratulations to your 2023 4A State Finalist, China Spring HS!!! Quote
ViewFromTheBox Posted November 2, 2023 Posted November 2, 2023 Absolutely amazing runs from everyone tonight! I've got Anna, Celina, Panther Creek, China Spring and Sulpher Springs as my top five in that order. But I'm not 100 percent confident in that. Will be a great grand finale coming up! Quote
Dave609 Posted November 2, 2023 Author Posted November 2, 2023 That concludes the Finals of the UIL 4A State Marching Band Competition! Thank you to all the bands that performed today and to all our State Finalists!! Quote
Tubalord11 Posted November 2, 2023 Posted November 2, 2023 LOVE this show form China Springs!! Festive Overture is one of my favorites in marching band, and they played it so well! I do think they could possibly move up, just don't know over who! It's gonna really gonna be up to who had the better visual run/judge's preferences because the top half all had great musical runs, will be really close! Quote
Dave609 Posted November 2, 2023 Author Posted November 2, 2023 I don't think it would ever be possible to be a judge after today XD. Every Band brought it! Tubalord11 1 Quote

Liam Allen Posted November 2, 2023 Posted November 2, 2023 Oooh I’m going to have to have a look at these recaps because I swear panther creek had the most flawless music run I’ve ever heard from a 4A band. Quote
Ghost DM Posted November 2, 2023 Posted November 2, 2023 Area B went 1st, 2nd, 3rd in the state. Canton placed 4th in that area and should have been in finals. Judges got this one wrong. Quote
