2019 5A Area I


Recommended Posts

Wow. so I guess the 2 bands I think will be moving on will be Porter, Galena Park, and then the final spot could go to: Willis, Crosby, Tomball, and/or Magnolia. and that's 6 bands right there. some very good programs will not make it. Oh and I could see Grand Oaks making finals but not state.

 

 

 

Edit: I feel like Area I has a lot of bands that was in Area E in 2017. That year there was 36 bands that qualified and 7 went onto state, and now this year 19 qualified and only 3 will move on from the 7 finalists. so some bands who was working hard to get into Area finals this year will now have to work harder

I’m really hoping to see Magnolia make finals and even advance to state! Would be their first time ever I believe. I think we have a really good show this year but of course I’m partial. Lol I know ALL these kids have worked so hard.

 

Magnolia has a GREAT shot at finals and advancing!  This year's edition is by far the best Magnolia band I've ever seen.  It's a beautiful show and well designed!

Porter - Power & Grace

Galena Park - Us and Them

Kingwood Park - Twister

New Caney - The Colors of Emotion

Magnolia West - Winter Is Coming

Willis - Expanding Spaces (Not quite sure on this one)

Grand Oaks - Cityscapes

 

That’s all I got

 

Edited to hopefully fix Willis

Willis is correct. We just saw them Tuesday at Region.

I was able to see some of the finalists bands and I thought...

 

Crosby was definitely clean music and marching wise, first time I had seen them. The Also Sprach Zarathustra worked as a great opener with great dynamic contrast and balance and I loved the Romeo and Juliet rendition! The Elsa's Procession (I believe is what it was) brought the show to a great finish with great fundamentals as well. Their marching was very clean as always.

 

Tomball's show was pleasant to watch as their uniforms and props gave a good aesthetic, but their marching (I think at least) was also clean and I enjoyed their drill. Sound wise, they were definitely of the most notable having a big sound and great woodwind moments. I definitely saw them in the top 3.

 

Galena Park was incredible! I thought they had the best sound of all, having not only power but a high level of maturity and balance. Dynamic contrast was on point, and I can't get enough of that Mahler's 2nd in the beginning! Flute and sax soloists (I'm a little fuzzy on whether there was another soloist/s) were amazing. Their marching and visuals were overall very good as well, but hopefully they can kick it up a notch in finals. Definitely my favorite.
