Lisa Daniels and Marching Bands Of America Regionals Held A t WCU For Second Straight Year Kevin Whiteside Staff Writer Once upon a time there was a man hy the name of Larry McCormick who was a percussionist and a public- school teacher. This man was very supportive of high school marching band contests and because of his love for kids he constructed a contest which is now known as Marching Bands of American or MBA. Now a part of McCormick Enterprises, which sells anything a marching band need, MBA is one ofthe most prestigious marching band contests in the United States. How is it different from all of the other band contests'? You can bet that at an MBA contest a person will experience some of the toughest shows that a high school band can perform. And not only perform, but perform exceptionally well. There are some ofthe most complex marghing band shows anywhere. MBA was first held in Whitewater, Wisconsin about 7 years ago. The contest holds different regionals all over the United States throughtout the year-ending with Winter and Summer Nationals. The MBA Nationals will be held at East Tennessee State University for its thud year there. Western Carolina University has hosted the MBA Southern Regionals for the second year now. How do wc pay for hosting this contest'.' Simple, we don't! McCormick Enterprises sponsors the whole show and offers a lot of students to compete in a very demanding contest and to also experience the beauty of WCU. All of the competing bands get to see WCU's Marching Catamounts perform which shows them a touch ofthe fine Music Department here. The competing bands are put into three classes; I A. 2A. and Open Class. Class rank is determined by the band's school population. The band's mainly enter the regionals to get input and output from the judges so they'll be ready for the Nationals. And it's a good step before the Nationals because of all of the excellent shows competing. These bands can work 2 to 3 V: hours a day. 5 days a week and still make mistakes That's not even counting the extra work that the Auxiliary Corps do. Danville High School—a competitor in this year's Southern Regionals—has been doing the same show for 5 years! I hey won the Southern Regionals last year and if your show wins then why change it! All ofthe shows are. in a sense, commercialized a lot. Most of them have had Professional Music Arrangers and professional marching band writers to write their show. But there still arc a few ofthe show's that the band directors themselves wrote. WCU's tine hall-time show is written by our own Dr. Scagnoli. who is Director of Bands here. It is from his interview with me that a lot of this article is derived. What do you- wm in MBA? Well, besides the prestigious title, bands win elaborate, beautiful trophies and medals. A lot of bands get superb reputations by winning this contest also. MBA also supplies the individual band's high school with about $ 1.000.00 worth of tickets for half price. Then the students sell the tickets for the original cost, make their money back, and then attend the contest free of charge. This year at MBA there were 13 bands competing compared to about 18 bands last year. The bands competing and representing their respective high schools were: East Lincoln. Glen Ridge. Northwest Guilford, South Granville, Boiling Springs. Fort Mill, Brevard. Rocky Mount, Campbell, Tuscola, and Danville. All of these bands have excellent shows. The big winner was Rocky Mount Senior High School, who also won the I A Division last year. Danville High School won in the IA Division and Tuscola won in the Open Division. Some of the individual band awards were: Drum Major—South Granville, Flags—Fort Mill. Rifles—Fort Mill. Overall Auxiliary-Fort Mill. Best Overall Marching-Danville. Brass and Winds—Rocky Mount. Percussion-Rocky Mount, and General Effect Trophy- Rocky Mount. WCU's band will host their own Mountain Classic Marching Band Contest (MCMBC). here October 15. so if you missed MBA, be sure and attend this contest. Because the marching band experience can be one of the most total and significant educational events in the development of a young person. Marching Bands of America was formed and exists to create, support and serve this experience. An individual's choice to participate in the band, and that band's participation in the broadening experience of competition, is a positive step toward becoming "a winner in life." Marching Bands of America is about participation. It is a space where all who participate are winners. It provides the opportunity to acknowledge young people who choose to win by dedicating themselves to a purpose. MBA is also about the promotion of excellence, the job of participating and "putting it all on the line." improvement, growth, and the acknowledge and satisfaction that comes from "going lor it."and knowing that you've done your best. MBA's purpose is to create and support an environment large enough to reach all the young people- in this countrv who choose to become winners in life.
