itsstephenyo Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 OWNED!!! Do you even know the meaning of owned? Cuz you don't show that you do. And to barisaxy08, Westfield's top band has no bari sax? Wow, that's pretty interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsstephenyo Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 everybody get it??? okay...because it's not really that serious to be tryna go back and forth on... Oh, I really didn't mean any offense to my question. I was just curious as to why one of the best bands in the nation didn't have a bari sax. Thank you for clearing it up. At Hebron, though, all the saxes tried out all at the same time, and the director put the five best in there and went down the line from 1st to 5th to see who got what part. Last year the fourth chair girl originally tried out on alto but had to play tenor during the concert season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmcolby Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 4th chair in 1st band (competed against 42 other flutes!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MmCheezItsYay Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 ?th chair, top band... we dont really have chairs...it goes like this: the people who were in it last year get the higher parts, the new people get lower parts, and it gets mixed in the middle a little.

shmily1130 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 First chair, top band. It's cool though, because we all like each other/don't hate each other. Which is great for me, since the other two people are a year and two years older than me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHS'NET10 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 RIGHT NOW im 1st chair... but its 3rd band (last) but im moving up to 2nd at the semester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3hZm4n Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 I'm in 1st band, but we don't really have chairs... If we did, I really don't know what chair I'd be, since all 3 tenor trombones in our top band are roughly equal in talent (we all made area, and we all have strengths that complement each others' weaknesses).

ClaireAnnette07 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 It's official: I am first chair, first band for the 3rd year in a row. Yay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinHorn Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 1st chair in second band, but I get to be in orchestra . What do you think is better, 1st in second band or 4th in 1st? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barisaxy08 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 1st chair in second band, but I get to be in orchestra . What do you think is better, 1st in second band or 4th in 1st? first in second band already...it would probably be more of a challenge anyways and you get looked at more than someone would if they was fourth chair in 1st band.

MmCheezItsYay Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 well last year i was 2nd in 2nd band (had some first parts tho) and this year im like 4th/6th in top band and i like it this year better cuz the stuff we do actually is more challenging than last year and i mean, come on, its the top band...

crazyjakeup Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 at the end of last year i was 2nd chair 2nd band. the start of this year i was 7th chair top band two days later 1st chair 2nd band. now im 6th chair 3rd band (i dint even get the solo in our xmas concert). they take auditions seriosly at my school (i dont ) . in my all district mariachi band im the principlal player, which is funny because our mariachi second chair is 1st/2nd chair region jazz and our third chair is in my schools top band, both of which are in all-region (i didnt try out, i prolly should have though)...

crazyjakeup Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 yeah so at this very moment i a 1st chair fourth band (i was last chair top band) today the head band director noticed i was in the fourth band and asked me what heck i was doing in there. i told him that i had no clue. the truth is is that i got moved to second band by accedent at the beginning of the year then we had end of marching season auditions that i sight read and played "mary had a little lamb" for one of the etudes i got moved to third band 1st chair. i got bored one week and started playing every thing up an octive and so the third band director moved me to fourth band.
