Westwood High School is located in Austin, Texas and is part of the Round Rock Independent School District. The Westwood Warrior Band averages 300 students who juggle the hard work and long hours of band, both marching and concert, along with the rigors of attending one of the top 100 public high schools in the nation. The Westwood color guard provides additional visual aspects to the marching band performance. The color guard performs alongside the marching band at football games and competes in winter guard contests during the late winter and early spring.
Were they placed 5th in prelims? The reaction they gave when another band was in 5th makes me think they weren't expecting to place higher than that, yet they did.
Really miss those good old days! Miss all the drum rolls, miss the six o'clock mornings and 12am nights. Miss everyone's faces and smiles! Wish everyone is doing great in their lives and wish you all the best! Wish we can meet someday in the future Guard folks! LOVE YOU ALL!
I vow to thee my country, All earthly things above Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love The love that asks no questions, the love that stands the test That lays upon the altar, the dearest and the best The love that never falters, the love that pays the price The love that makes undaunted, the final sacrifice And there's another country, I heard of long ago Most dear to those who love her, most great to those who know We may not count her armies, we may not see her king Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering And soul by soul and silently, her shining bounds increase And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace
Hi and thanks for your comment! There are many options for oboe players so it's best to talk directly with a director about your particular situation. Ms. Love is a great resource, but I can also put you in touch with our directors. Email me at communications@westwoodband.org and I'll put you in touch with the directors. Keep practicing future Warrior!
Wow I wish I was able to stay in band throughough senior year, this was truley an amazing performance. I hope everyone else from class of 2016 is well off in life.
