beowulf Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Well, it's set now. Here are the 6A finalists: Frenship Coronado Keller Central Coppell Flower Mound Wylie Duncanville McNeil Claudia Taylor Johnson Vandegrift College Park Cy-Fair Judson Hanna Dawson James E. Taylor I'll stick to my 1-2 prediction of Flower Mound/CTJ, not sure of order. One poster criticized me for guessing the Area E results. Well, this is TX Bands, and about 1/2 this website is predicting contest outcomes! I feel bad for Reagan and Westlake. They would have advanced in most of the other areas. But, with marching/all-state/honor band - there are always 1 or 2 areas that are just harder than the others. I'm very excited to see so many programs advance to the state round that haven't gotten there before or not for a very long time. Bravo!

Xenon Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 I'll stick to my 1-2 prediction of Flower Mound/CTJ, not sure of order. I personally loved FloMo's recording and they did end up 1st in Area C, but very oddly it wasn't by any real clear margin. The performances were technically brilliant and full of amazing tone and depth of color across all sections (especially the clarinets!) but the only place it was relatively lacking in any way was with emotional musicality. And it seems like more than a few of the judges today didn't take too well to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandit Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Keller Central and Coppell advanced from Area B. Thanks. What happened to Keller? Were they at Area? Is there any way we can see the ratings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandwoww Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 Thanks. What happened to Keller? Were they at Area? Is there any way we can see the ratings? Keller Central advanced over Keller last year as well. Nothing happened to Keller. They still have an amazing concert program; this is just what the judges decided. I believe Keller was 4th out of 8 in area B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t mean to say anything happened to Keller- was just curious about how they placed. Also it is interesting to see how concert band stacks up compared to marching season- if I’m not mistaken, Keller was ahead of Coppell and KC at Area and BOA for the music caption. Just shows the depth of this area. Insanely difficult. October is going to be so exciting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jelonfish Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 Not sure. I only know Keller was 4th cause they announced it on their Twitter. I know that 3rd spot must sting . That is like the worse place to be lowkey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bancl Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 Yeah, Keller is pretty far ahead of KC and Coppell in terms of music in marching season. Not sure I would agree with that. All are strong programs in both parts of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandwoww Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 Not sure I would agree with that. All are strong programs in both parts of the year. Yeah sorry, “pretty far” was the wrong phrase to use. I was just trying to say that I’ve heard a slightly more noticible difference in sound quality and music difficulty in marching season.
