NATIONAL WIND BAND HONORS MARK OF EXCELLENCE AWARD

The Mark of Excellence project seeks to recognize and award outstanding achievement in performance by high school and middle school bands, choirs, and orchestras. The project gathers entries from throughout the United States and provides valuable feedback for all entrants. A unique competitive environment is created which allows ensembles to compare their performance quality to other outstanding groups from across the country. All entrants receive a compilation recording of the winning performances. Winners are recognized in regional and/or national publications and at national and regional conventions.

In addition to the ensemble’s recognition, Ben Agnew, Janna Campbell, and Aaron Nguyen were selected as Outstanding Soloists.
