Tyler participated in a middle school solo and ensemble competition on Saturday. He played a trumpet solo with a piano accompanist. The school where the competition was held was huge and the halls were busy. It was also a little difficult to find the right rooms, which didn't help calm the jitters. Despite being nervous, he did a great job! He earned a II, which is an "excellent". (The scale is I - V, superior - needs improvement.) We had a total of 7 students, including Tyler, from our school who performed solos. I think all of them received IIs, so they all did very well.
Recording and photographs were prohibited, but here is a picture of Tyler by his score. He also received a comment sheet from the judge and a certificate with his rating on it. It was a very good experience for him, and I think he would like to try again next year.
