Fourteen band students from Madison Creative Arts Academy's (MCAA) Symphonic Band performed at the Florida Bandmasters Association District 3 Solo and Ensemble Music Performance Assessment. The event was held at Swift Creek Middle School in February. The students performed solos, duets and trios, totaling nine performances. Possible judges ratings are, from lowest to highest, Poor, Fair, Good, Excellent and Superior. All nine MCAA performing groups and soloists received Superior ratings for their performances. Congratulations to these students on this outstanding accomplishment.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, band students have been working with Music Director Jay Hicks online to continue improving their skills and preparing for upcoming performances when they resume.
