On Becoming One Of The Tri State Music Bands

By Mattie Knight


Music have become the companion of many civilizations and societies even before actual songs were created. It has too many functions for the human population these days that at it has become as normal as breathing. Hearing various sounds that create music is a normal thing that when it gets suddenly lost, it would be hard to get it back and you know that you will feel something is missing.

Because of the great impact that music has on every person and many communities, festivals are being held. Over the years, different variations of festivals can be seen and anyone could attend it as well. One popular type of music celebration would be the Tri State festival which is joined by hundreds of Tri State Music Bands. Some could be from specific places like West Park in New York or some other area.

This was considered to be one of the more popular type of festival that is attended and celebrated by various bands from different schools of three inter connected states. This is the reason why it has the title now. Over the years, the festival just became bigger with more groups participating aiming to become winner in the contest based performances.

The bands who will be performing for these events are not the ones you are used to seeing when there are festivals. They do not go on stage and bring various types of instruments. They go to an open area where there is more space for them to freely move around and execute their routine. And these groups are better known as drum and bugle corps.

There are different reasons why this was known to be a very prestigious event. One is that many have gained reputation and recognition because of it. The other reason would be the fact that prizes are quite good as well. The winning team of a certain category would be given scholarship grants to good schools.

You need to think about the things that you have to do to qualify. Various registration forms need to be filled out. There will also be rules and guidelines which means you have to be aware about all of these things so that you would not have problems preparing. And you can also prepare a routine that falls in line with the guidelines given.

Recognition is one of the things you could gain. This is, of course, given you have performed well or you already have the reputation to uphold. Even those who did not had a shot at winning could still be recognized. Just by working harder and showing what you can do, it is easier to achieve these things.

Another thing you will gain from this is experience. It is often that first timers do not get recognized or get the prizes. However, this also does not mean that you will not get a second chance at doing it again. Through gaining experience, you will have the idea on what to expect and plan for it ahead of time.

If you have succeeded in the registration, the next thing to decide is what to play and how you can properly execute things. Constant practice will be necessary. You should also do research on the things that usually goes on during the festival and what type of music they are playing.
