Travis advanced band
earns sweepstakes award
SPECIAL TO THE WAVE
The Travis Middle School
advanced and intermediate
bands recently traveled to
Victoria West High School
to compete in the UIL Music
Region 14 Concert and Sight-
Reading Contest. The TMS
intermediate band received
a rating of excellent on
its prepared music and a
rating of superior in sight-
reading. The TMS advanced
band received superior
ratings from all six judges,
thus winning the second
sweepstakes award in a row,
and the sixth sweepstakes in
the last 10 years.
“Our students worked
very hard to remain eligible for
this contest, and worked very
hard on their music and sight-
reading skills. All their fine
efforts certainly paid off,” said
Travis Middle School Band
Director, Doug Hamelwright.
“Our community provides
great support for us, and
we are very appreciative.
Our directing staff, private
lessons teachers, parents,
school administration, CCISD
teachers and support staff all
share in the success of our
program.”
The TMS intermediate
band, directed by David
Sprinkle, performed
“Atlantis” by Anne McGinty,
“Fire Dance” by Douglas Akey,
and “Spitfire” by Michael
Story in the concert contest
while the advanced band
performed “Australian Folk
Fantasy” by Mark William,
“Cumberland Cross” by Carl
Strommen and “Miracle at
Dunkirk” by John Edmonson.
The sight-reading pieces were
works commissioned by UIL
for the sight-reading contest.
“I always feel that the
sight-reading contest is an
excellent indicator of what
the students know about
music,” Sprinkle said.
“After only seven minutes of
looking over a piece they’ve
never seen, students are
expected to provide a polished
performance, including notes,
rhythms, tuning, dynamics,
and all the other aspects of
music making. It is a contest
of concentration and applying
what students know.”
The Travis bands will
next compete in the music
Region 13 solo and ensemble
contest Saturday, April 11, at
Patti Welder Middle School in
Victoria. The TMS bands will
be in concert Tuesday, May 19,
at the Calhoun High School
Auditorium.
