UIL Champion Arranger


Recommended Posts

If I recall correctly through the haze of history, Crockett's championship shows in the early 80's were Paula Crider's creations. (She later went on to become the director at Univ. / Texas.) I *think* those were her arrangements, but I wouldn't swear to it.

Here are the state champions since the state contest started if that helps. The first school is the 4A champion and the second school is the 5A champion.

1979 - 4A Carroll & 5A Fredericksburg

1980 - 4A Round Rock & 5A Crockett

1981 - 4A Georgetown & 5A Crockett

1982 - 4A Georgetown & 5A Permian

1983 - 4A Georgetown & 5A San Antonio MacArthur

1984 - 4A Georgetown & 5A San Antonio MacArthur

1985 - 4A Georgetown & 5A San Antonio MacArthur

1986 - 4A Dickinson & 5A Duncanville

1987 - 4A Allen & 5A Westfield

1988 - 4A Allen & 5A Westfield

1989 - 4A Dickinson & 5A Westfield

1990 - 4A Dickinson & 5A Duncanville

 

There are a few mistakes in this one, first of all in 1979, there was no 5A yet, that did not happen until 1980, and if I am correct, Round Rock won 4A in 1979 and Carroll won in 1A, also in 1983, San Antonio MacArthur did not in Class 5A, it was Laredo Nixon, I think UIL still has that mistake.

"It's actually pretty unlikely Mark Higginbotham arranged 1994 because he was a student in the band in 1993."

 

Not true. Higginbotham graduated in 1988. He is in his early forties. His first arrangements were for Cy-Falls HS in 1992. It was the music of the movie "Hook" We arranged together in 1993 for Cy-Fair HS.

Correct, Fredericksburg won Class 3A in 1979, not 5A.
