FM: 2023 Solo & Ensemble Results
The results are in for the 2023 Solo & Ensemble for your Flower Mound Symphonic Band.
Congratulations to the FM CDA Symphonic Band! It was an amazing day at Solo & Ensemble competition! We had 17 soloists and 13 small ensembles participating, and EACH made a superior rating, which is the highest rating possible. In addition, we had 9 soloists and 7 of our small ensembles advance to the State Solo and Ensemble Competition, which takes place May 27! To be able to advance to State is a real honor and speaks very highly of the musicianship of our students. The TPSMEA president made a comment when CDA was checking out at the end of the day that CDA was cleaning him out of medals! 🙂
I am so proud of everyone who participated in this contest! You are better players and musicians because of your hard work!
