Proposed Region 6 Freshman All-Region Audition Music

Colleagues,

Below are the PROPOSED Region 6 Freshman All-Region Audition Music cuts taken from the actual TMEA all-state etudes. I respectfully ask that you review the cuts below only if you have students auditioning for the freshman region band.

You will have until Friday, September 6, 2019, to send me your comments and concerns about the audition cuts below. I will review all of the comments I receive and if necessary make changes based on the majority of ideas from directors. I will then send out another email the following Monday officially finalizing the freshman auditions music cuts. Once again, these are the PROPOSED cuts. Thank you for your time and consideration.  

Thank you,

Steven Dojahn
