Jasper drum major Grace Harmon conducted the Marching Wildcats as they warmed up before last year’s ISSMA Marching Band Scholastic Prelims and Open Class Invitational at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper. The band performs at 7:14 p.m. during this year’s invitational.
Jasper hopes to shine with golden performance Show title: City of Gold Repertoire: “Machu Picchu” by Satoshi Yagisawa, “Twitch” by Nathan Daughtrey and “Gabriel’s Oboe” by Ennio Morricone. A show titled “City of Gold” is fitting for the Jasper Marching Wildcats, a band that has made 27 straight Indiana State School Music Association State Finals appearances dating back to 1990. Director James Goodhue — who has led the group to nine, top-five Open Class B finishes in as many years — is quick to point out the band was good before that, too. This year, the band’s performance draws on ancient South American cultures — visually setting the tone with on-field ruins as well as a massive tarp that boasts a stunning Mayan sun calendar. The color highlighted throughout the show is one the band has become intimately familiar with over its decorated history: gold. The color guard’s outfits shine gold, as do the band members’ capes, gloves and gauntlets. The color will be the center of the band’s performance when they take their home field at 7:14 p.m. Saturday at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium as the lone competitor in Open Class B. “It’s not really telling a story, it’s more about the color,” Goodhue said. “And the imagery should invoke Incan or Mayan or Mesoamerican civilizations.” Goodhue said that originally, the show was going to be called something along the lines of “Midas and the Golden Touch,” but the music shifted the theme. “Machu Picchu” swells with Incan imagery, while epic “Gabriel’s Oboe” — the main theme from the 1986 film “The Mission” — furthers the regal theme. Goodhue admitted the band is behind in learning the show, but said that happens some years. He said the band hasn’t done as well in the early exhibition competitions as it has traditionally in the past, but he hopes the show will come together before regional contests begin Saturday, Oct. 14. “We’re at a place where we have to learn a lot in the next short amount of time,” he said. “I think they will. I think they’re up for it.”

Local bands set sights on postseason success By ALLEN LAMAN alaman@dcherald.com
Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Before they play on the biggest stage in the state, however, bands need to qualify at regional and semistate competitions, which will be held across Indiana on the Saturdays of Oct. 21 and 28 respectively. The regional contests separate the bands into north and south divisions, and the top 10 bands from each advance to semistate. That number is cut in half again following the semistate events, and the top 10 schools in each class (A through D) advance to the state finals. Saturday’s invitational won’t have postseason consequences for the Jasper, Southridge and Forest Park bands. Regional competitions for bands in the Open Class begin Saturday, Oct. 14. Northeast Dubois will also compete Saturday in Jasper, however, the band will perform in Scholastic Class B, an alternative means of competition for programs who opt out of the Open Class. The Scholastic Class is designed for smaller bands with fewer resources. While the Open Class uses only school enrollment in determining class assignment, the Scholastic Class uses both
Saturday performance schedule
Cue the horns, drum line, woodwinds and, of course, the screaming parents: Marching band season is back in full swing across Indiana. One hundred and seventy-two high schools compete in the Indiana State School Music Association’s three marching band classes. Four of the bands set up shop right here in Dubois County — the Jasper Marching Wildcats, Southridge’s Marching Raider Band, the Forest Park Marching Rangers and the Northeast Dubois Marching Jeeps. Here’s a rundown of how these contests work. Three area bands will compete in Saturday’s Open Class at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper: Southridge and Forest Park will compete in Class D while Jasper will be the lone competitor in Class B. Like high school athletics, open classes A through D are determined by school population size. The Open Class State Finals will be held on Saturday, Nov. 4, at Lucas
12:44 p.m. Salem 12:57 p.m. Washington 1:10 p.m. Reitz Memorial 1:23 p.m. Shawe Memorial 1:49 p.m. Charlestown 2:02 p.m. Northeast Dubois 2:15 p.m. Henryville 2:28 p.m. Eastern Pekin 2:41 p.m. Madison Consolidated 2:54 p.m. Bedford North Lawrence 4:12 p.m. Clay City 4:25 p.m. Forest Park 4:38 p.m. Southridge 4:51 p.m. Crawford County 5:17 p.m. Springs Valley 5:30 p.m. Paoli 5:56 p.m. Orleans 5:43 p.m. Tell City 6:22 p.m. Princeton (Scholastic class awards) 6:35 p.m. Edgewood 6:48 p.m. Pike Central 7:01 p.m. Boonville 7:14 p.m. Jasper (Open class awards)
school enrollment and band enrollment to classify the bands. The larger Scholastic A Class, for example, includes programs that would be in Open Class A or B, but their bands’ membership can’t exceed 110 total members. The Scholastic B Class is comprised of bands that would be in Open Class C or D but have fewer than 55 total members. The local contest of the preliminary round of the Scholastic Class ladder will be held Saturday at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper, and schools that earn a gold rating will advance to the finals at Lawrence Central High School on the northeast side of Indianapolis on Saturday, Oct. 21. The winners of each class will be invited to perform their routines prior to the Open Class state finals at Lucas Oil. ISSMA also offers a noncompetitive Festival Class intended to give bands feedback and evaluation based on their music quality and performance. No local bands compete in that division. Heritage Hills, like the past two years, is not marching this season.
Who’s counting? Band scoring gets complicated By ALLEN LAMAN alaman@dcherald.com In contact sports, competitors face off against each other with one goal: scoring more points than their opponents. This is done by completing objective tasks such as netting jump shots in basketball and carrying the pigskin into the end zone in football. Leaving Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis with a first place Indiana State School Music Association State Finals trophy isn’t as clear cut of a task. Instead of having one definable goal, bands are each rated in the categories of music, visuals and general effect, a system

that Southridge Marching Raider Band Director Lannie Butler said can cause things to get a little hairy. “It’s definitely a subjective game, if you will,” Butler said. “You know that going in, so if you want to play, that’s the way it is.” Here’s the breakdown. The standard of excellence is determined by ISSMA, which consists of Indiana’s band, orchestra, and choral teachers. At ISSMA competitions, six judges evaluate each band using the organization’s rubric. A band’s final score is based on a 100-point scale with 60 percent based on musical evaluations and 20 percent based on visuals, which include set design, color
guard performance and marching. The effect category comprises the remaining 20 percent of the score and takes music and visuals into consideration to evaluate the overall routine. To get a perfect score, music, visuals and effect are further broken down. In the music category, the bands are evaluated on how well the instruments blend together and the difficulty of their repertoire. The visual category analyzes the color guard’s choreography, how well the band marches together, and the set design. The contests that bands compete in prior to the ISSMA regional, semistate and state competitions are the equivalent of a football
team’s regular season. The bands receive a placement and often specific distinctions, such as best visuals and best percussion, among others. None of that matters at the end of the season, though. No matter how well bands have performed prior to the ISSMA contests, a gold ranking and a top rating are the only way to guarantee progression to the state finals.

The Southridge band performed during last year’s ISSMA Marching Band Scholastic Prelims and Open Class Invitational at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper. The Marching Raiders perform at 4:38 p.m. during this year’s invitational.
Raiders follow state bid with spooky routine Show title: Totentanz Repertoire: “Death & the Maiden,” “R.I.P. Restless In Percussion,” “Macabre Waltz,” “Totentanz,” and “Have You Seen the Ghost of John?” All original music composed and arranged by Joe Phelps and Lannie Butler. The Southridge Marching Raider Band’s 2017 show has a death theme, but it’s not entirely morbid. Throughout “Totentanz” — which translates from German to “dance of death” — the band and color guard portray skeletons, spirits and ghosts who come to life at midnight and have a fun time partying before returning to their graves when the sun rises the following morning. Director Lannie Butler said the group mixes in romance and finality to the show as well, creating a sort of last dance for the souls. “It’s kind of deep, man,” Butler said with a laugh. While the show’s songs are all original pieces crafted by Butler and Joe Phelps, some of the classical themes tapped in their compositions include “Death & the Maiden” by Franz Schubert, “Funeral March” by Frederic Chopin and “Danse Macabre” by Camille Saint-Saëns. In some ways it’s simple, Butler said. The ghouls come out and go the ballroom for the last dance and leave when it’s over. But in another sense, the crowd is watching souls connect with each other for the final time. All the while, band and color guard members are shifting the field from a cemetery to a ballroom and then back to a cemetery through the use of tombstone props. Last year, the group placed 10th in the Open Class D Indiana State School Music Association State Finals. And like last year’s “Wild Garden in a Formal Setting,” “Totentanz” carries a dark theme. “It’s easier for people to get into that than if everything is all happy all the time,” Butler said. “But I think it does have a whole lot of mood swings and the concept is easy to follow.” And while it’s not necessarily a Halloween show, the themes and characters fit right in with the shifting seasons. Viewer beware: Butler said that if you look closely at the sideline percussion during the band’s 4:38
p.m. performance Saturday at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium, you’re in for a scare. Marching Raider Band roster:

Forest Park’s Anna Bailey performed during last year’s ISSMA Marching Band Scholastic Prelims and Open Class Invitational at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper. The Marching Rangers perform at 4:25 p.m. during this year’s invitational.
Rangers ready to sprout wings, take flight Show title: King of the Mountain Repertoire: “One Day I’ll Fly Away” by Joe Sample and Will Jennings, “Airlink” by Jack Stamp, “Sanctuary” by Frank Ticheli, and “Butterfly” by Mia Makaroff. After a runner-up finish at the Open Class D Indiana State School Music Association State Finals last October, the Forest Park Marching Rangers are taking inspiration from a timely natural occurrence — the annual migration of monarch butterflies from the northern half of the United states to Mexico — to fledge out their 2017 show. Director Chad Gayso said the title of the performance, “King of the Mountain,” is derived from a combination of the royalness associated with the word monarch and the landscape of the region that the butterflies travel to each year, and noted that large rock props and color guard uniform designs that resemble caterpillars work to communicate the theme. “At certain points in the show, they do a costume change and then come out with butterfly wings,” said Gayso, who has led the band to either first- or second-place finishes at state finals in each of the past nine years. He said the color guard’s flags will also contribute to the butterfly-filled visual imagery. As far as the music goes, Gayso said it’s a good mix of speedy and slowed-down pieces and various moods. “Everything we’re doing sort of references the air and flight and nature,” Gayso said. “It’s a pretty good variety.” The show is still going through a metamorphosis of its own and won’t be fully complete by the time the Rangers take the field at 4:25 p.m. Saturday at Jasper’s Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium. Gayso said the ensemble is returning much of the same group as last year, with the exception of the roughly fifteen graduating seniors and new freshman performers. He said last year’s second-place state finals finish hasn’t been a worry for this year’s group. Prior to that finish, the band
had placed first in their class four consecutive times at state. “We’re really just trying to make this year the best this year can be and honestly, I haven’t heard too many conversations about our placement from last year at all,” Gayso said. Forest Park Marching Rangers roster: Drum Major: Katie Winkler. Conductor: Erika Uebelhor. Alto Sax: Rylee Auffart, Reese Blackgrove, Nathan Hamilton, Dalton Streicher, Morgan Tretter, Olivia Wallhauser, Alex Weyer and Kaiyah Wilhite. Baritone: Lanette Blume, Nolan Brames, Nolan Goepfrich, Tyler Hedinger, Zach Hedinger, Makayla McKim and Adam Weyer.

Northeast Dubois’s Jordan Baker played the bass during last year’s ISSMA Marching Band Scholastic Class state finals at Lawrence Central High School in Indianapolis. The Marching Jeeps perform at 2:02 p.m. during this year’s invitational.
Jeeps setting sights on return to state finals Show title: Expand and Contract Repertoire: “Symphony No. 5” by Jean Sibelius and “Symphonic Dances” by Sergei Rachmaninoff. Northeast Dubois marching band director David Fox has his band trying something new this year. The band’s 2016 routine centered on the Marching Jeeps physically connecting props on the field and led them to the Indiana State School Music Association Scholastic Class Finals. But, the kids are performing outside the lines this time around with a more abstract routine. The band’s show this year is titled “Expand and Contract,” a theme that is brought to life through the use of Hoberman spheres and stretchy fabric visually, as well as through crescendos and decrescendos that musically make the sound breathe as it grows and shrinks. “We’re always thinking, ‘What can we do to make (the show) expand and contract? What can we do to make every moment interesting and relate back to our concept and idea to get the most effect out of it?’” Fox said, noting this is the most complicated performance he has led during his five-year tenure as the band’s leader. The Jeeps will perform at 2:02 p.m. Saturday at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper. If the band earns a gold rating, it will advance for the second straight year to the ISSMA Scholastic B Class finals at Lawrence Central High School in Indianapolis on Saturday, Oct. 21. “It’s very cool to be able to have them think in big picture (ways) and do things that are outside their comfort zones,” Fox said. “They just are willing to do it because they know how cool it is.” Northeast Dubois Marching Jeeps roster: Drum Major: Harley Hall. Flute: Addison Kurtz and Sabrina Dunning. Clarinet: Sam Wilson, Ayane Mundy,
