The ISSMA contest system: How it works By LEANN BURKE lburke@dcherald.com When it comes to marching band competitions, it’s more complicated than just show up and play. The Indiana State School Music Association manages marching band competition in the state, and 170 high school marching bands compete under the association. Those 170 bands are further divided into Open, Scholastic and Festival classes, depending on the individual directors’ decisions. Three Dubois County bands — Jasper, Southridge and Forest Park — compete in Open Class. Open Class is for bands hoping to compete in the state finals at the end of the season at Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis. Open Class bands are further divided into classes A through D, depending on school enrollment size, with A being largest and D being smallest. Jasper competes in Class B, Southridge in Class C and Forest Park in Class D. Bands in the Open Class compete at several competitions throughout the season, as well as regional, semistate and state competitions. Regional competitions take place in two regions — north and south. The top 10 scorers in each class A through D in each region advance to semistate, which has 20 teams per class. The top 10 teams in semistate advance to state. State has 10 teams per class, and those bands are ranked first through 10th. Forest Park has competed in the state competition in Class C annually since 2005 and has won first place each of the last three years. Jasper has competed in the state competition for Class B annually since 1991 and won the state title in 2012. Last year, the Wildcats placed fifth.
Southridge last appeared in the state contest for Class D in 2012 and placed sixth. This year’s state contest will be Saturday, Nov. 7, at Lucas Oil Stadium. Northeast Dubois competes in the Scholastic Class, which was introduced in 2013. The Scholastic Class takes band size and school enrollment into consideration when classifying bands. The Scholastic Class contains Scholastic Small and Scholastic Large. Northeast Dubois competes in the Scholastic Small class. Scholastic competition centers around Scholastic Class Prelims, hosted Saturday at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper for southern Indiana, and Scholastic Finals. Bands that receive a gold rating in the prelims advance to the finals. The finals will be Saturday, Oct. 24, at Lawrence Central High School in Indianapolis. The Festival Class is non-competitive, and bands are evaluated based on music quality and performance, according to a press release from ISSMA earlier this year. None of the bands from Dubois County compete in Festival Class. Bands in the Open and Scholastic classes receive an assessment of their performance, music and visual design from judges. All bands receive a gold, silver, bronze or participation rating for their performances.

Hurm and the Marching Rangers hope for a return to the state competition with this year’s show, “Belle in Bloom.”

Jasper High School senior Sasha Heeren, center, chatted with her bandmates before Jasper’s football matchup against Southridge on Aug. 28 at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium earlier this year. The Marching Wildcats hope to return to the state competition for the 35th consecutive this year with their performance, “The Secret Garden.”
Wildcat talent blooms during ‘Secret Garden’ Show Title: “The Secret Garden” Repertoire: “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night” by Elliot del Borgo, “Sanctuary” by Frank Ticheli, “Appalachian Spring” by Aaron Copland, arranged by Chad Gayso Although the Marching Wildcats are not trying to portray the storyline from the popular book “The Secret Garden” by Frances Hodgson, their show does have a similar theme. “It’s about going from a dark, closed, forbidden place to a pretty thing,” said director James Goodhue. The music, choreography and uniforms work together to illustrate that theme. The band opens with the dark sound of “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night” and ends with lighter themes from “Appalachian Spring,” a classic orchestral piece. As for color and uniform, the show begins with the band members kneeling on the ground and wearing green plumes on their uniforms, looking like weeds, and a girl walks through the crowd. As the show goes on, colored fabrics are added to the uniforms and a tarp adorned with flowers opens across the field, bringing the garden from mystery to beauty. “That’s kind of the big moment in the middle of the show,” said Eric Berger, show designer and choreographer. Berger got the idea to do “The Secret Garden” from the music the band wanted to perform this year. “There’s a certain amount of mystery in (the music), and we’re going through trying to unravel a mystery, as any show does.” The Marching Wildcats compete in Indiana State School Music Association Class B and have performed in the state competition annually since 1990. They won a state championship in 2012 and are angling for their 35th consecutive state finals appearance this year. Jasper will take the field at 5:43 p.m. Saturday in Open Class B as part of the ISSMA Scholastic Prelims at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper.

What’s the score? For bands, it’s hard to say By LEANN BURKE lburke@dcherald.com When it comes to marching band competitions, scores are of little to no value. Unlike in sports, marching bands do not compete one-on-one. Instead, the bands perform and are evaluated on an individual basis based on music, visuals and general effect. “In sports, people can see the points being scored, and the winner or loser is determined by that — it is objective, not subjective,” said Lannie Butler, director of Southridge High School’s Marching Raiders. “Marching band involves music and visual pageantry that is art and very subjective. “Bands play different music styles and genres, have different instrumentation, different visual, drill, costumes, props and more. You are performing to a standard of excellence.” The standard of excellence is determined by the Indiana State School Music Association, which consists of Indiana’s band, orchestra and choral teachers. At competitions, six judges evaluate each band using ISSMA’s rubrics for music, visuals and effect. The highest rating per category is five. “Most people will score in Box 3 or 4,” said Patrick Keeley, assistant director at Jasper High School. “Most groups never get
Box 5. We usually get Box 5 by the end of the year from most judges.” The final score is based on a 100-point scale with 60 percent based on the music evaluations and 40 percent based on visuals, which include set design, the color guard and marching. Effect takes both music and visuals into account to evaluate the show overall. To reach the 100 points, music, visual and effect are further broken down. In the music category, bands are judged on aspects such as how well the instruments blend together and the difficulty of the selection. The visual category takes into account the color guard’s choreography, how well the band marches together and set design. “Design and difficulty are worth quite a lot,” Keeley said. “Sometimes, a group has poor design and performs well, but is beaten by a band with better design.” Scores are taken into account after the regional, semistate and state competitions for bands in the Open Class and after the prelims and finals for bands in the Scholastic Class. The other competitions during the season serve as practice for the qualifying rounds. Northeast Dubois performs in the Scholastic Class, while Jasper, Forest Park and Southridge perform in the Open Class. Jasper High School will host one of three ISSMA Scholastic Prelim events Saturday at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium. The Open Class regional will be Nov. 6 in Evansville for Jasper (Class B) and Forest Park (Class

D) and in Greenwood for Southridge (Class C). Competition structures during the season depend on the host school. Some competitions divide the bands based on school enrollment, band size or something else. Comparing bands based on the scores from those competitions would be inaccurate, Butler said. But that’s OK. Those competitions have no bearing on whether a band advances to semistate or state. Semistate depends on the regional competition; state depends on semistate. “It’s like a basketball team,” Keeley said. “They could lose every game during the season, but if they win in the tournament, they’re going to keep advancing.” But even then, the scores from marching band competitions aren’t given the same clout as those from sports competitions. In fact, ISSMA does not publish the scores
from the regional, semistate and state competitions, and schools are prohibited from sharing their scores with the public. Band competitions are called festivals instead of competitions to emphasis the educational attributes of marching bands. “Since it is an educational component — or co-curricular (a class that is part of the curriculum) — the assessment or rating is considered the most valuable part,” Butler said.

SOUTHRIDGE MARCHING RAIDERS
DAVE WEATHERWAX/THE HERALD
Above: Marching Raiders color guard members Annie Ferguson, left, Kimberly Martin and Kassie Berger practiced before the start of Southridge’s football game against Tell City on Sept. 25. Below: Band members Vanessa Avalos, left, and Katelyn Neukam danced together while the percussion warmed up before the start of the game at Raider Field in Huntingburg.
Raiders ready to plunge into a ‘Mad World’ Show Title: “Mad World” Repertoire: “Lost” by Lannie Butler and Joe Phelps, “Committed” by Lannie Butler and Joe Phelps, “Mad World” by Gary Jules, “Embrace It or Fight It” by Lannie Butler and Joe Phelps The Marching Raider Band invites audiences to travel down the artistic process in its show “Mad World.” “Just about anything can inspire you,” said Southridge director Lannie Butler. “In coming up with the show, we just took that process (of moving from inspiration to finished product) and made a show of it.” With the exception of “Mad World,” a pop tune originally by Gary Jules, the Raiders’ music consists of public domain pieces arranged by Butler and Joe Phelps. The music explores the word “mad” and anything that can be associated with it. “Sometimes that’s sad, sometimes that’s happy, sometimes it’s mad,” Butler said. “It’s just getting lost in the word.” In its simplest form, Butler said, the show is about seeing the world in different ways. The Marching Raiders have made two appearances in the Indiana State School Music Association state finals in the last five years, earning ninth place in 2010 and sixth in 2012. They perform at 4:51 p.m. Saturday in the ISSMA Scholastic Prelims at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper. Band roster Drum major: Katelyn Neukam and Marco Rocha. Flute: Katelyn Neukam, Lauren Bailey, Cheyenne D’Poffo and Vanessa Avalos. Clarinet: Juana Sandoval, Perlita Garcia, Emily Winstead and Phillip Hartwick. Bass Clarinet: Jose Masariego.

Forest Park High School color guard member Jessica Mundy, left, tossed her flag into the air as she practiced for the half time show during Forest Park’s Sept. 11 football game against Pike Central in Ferdinand. The Marching Rangers hope to build on their three consecutive state championships with this year’s show, “Belle In Bloom.”
Rangers make sure to stop and smell roses Show: “Belle In Bloom” Repertoire: “The Day All My Dreams Came True” by Patrick Doyle, “Go Lovely Rose” by Eric Whitacre, “The Magic Flute” by Wolfgang Mozart and “Polovtsian Dances” by Alexander Borodin Forest Park director Chad Gayso expects audiences to take one thing away from this year’s show, “Belle in Bloom.” It’s the roses. “We’ve got roses all over the field,” Gayso said. The Marching Rangers also have tall, white pillars adorned with rose garlands to march through, all working together to bring the audience a more subdued show. “I would say our show is more on the softer side,” said Gayso. “Our shows in the past have been more aggressive.” With titles like “PowerHouse” and “Magnum Opus,” as well as 28 appearances in the state finals in the last 33 years and three consecutive state championships leading up to this season, “aggressive” seems like a given. But not to worry. Gayso said fans can still expect a “full ensemble sound” from this year’s show. Their color guard is also a strength. “They learn work really quickly,” Gayso said. The Marching Rangers perform at 3:46 p.m. Saturday in Open Class D as part of the ISSMA Scholastic Prelims at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper. Band roster Drum major: Alyssa Hurm.

NORTHEAST DUBOIS MARCHING JEEPS
HERALD FILE PHOTOS
Northeast Dubois Marching Jeeps members Gabby Sander, left, Harley Hall and Lydia Miller cheered last year following the awards ceremony during the ISSMA Marching Band Scholastic Prelims and Open Class Invitational at Jasper High School. The Jeeps earned a silver rating.
Aiming for a thriller, Jeeps target Jackson 5 Show Title: “The Jackson 5” Repertoire: “I Want You Back,” “I’ll Be There,” and “ABC.” Northeast Dubois is boogying down to songs by pop quintet The Jackson 5. The Marching Jeeps wanted well-known songs in their repertoire this season. Having hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Top 100, all three of the Jackson 5 songs they chose fit the bill. “We wanted a show that would be fun
and get the audience involved,” said director David Fox. The show demands audiences get up and dance. The backdrop is built to look like a boom box and painted silhouettes groove between the speakers. As a grand finale, audiences can look forward to a dance break at the end of “ABC.” Last year, the Jeeps performed classical tunes in their show “Classical Voyage.” Fox is hoping this year’s pop songs will appeal more to the audience.
Above: Northeast Dubois seventh-grader Austin Palmer played the tuba during warm-ups before the 2014 ISSMA Marching Band Scholastic Class Prelims and Open Class Invitational at Jasper High School. Right: Dubois Middle School eighth-grader Lisette Moya played the marimba while warming up before last year’s contest. The band received a silver rating.
The Marching Jeeps compete in the Indiana State School Music Association Scholastic Small Class. The Scholastic class was introduced in 2013 and takes into account school enrollment and band size, as opposed to the Open Class that takes into account only school enrollment. The Marching Jeeps bring the Jackson 5 back to life at 12:31 p.m. Saturday when they compete in the ISSMA Scholastic Prelims at Jerry Brewer Alumni Stadium in Jasper.
Band roster Winds: Megan Senninger, Charlene Rush, Madison Bottorff, Sam Wilson, Ayane Mundy, McGwire Hale, Evan Dunning, Lydia Miller, Gabby Sander, Trey Mundy, Dillon Cummins, Brice Priddy, Maggie Poppe, Josh Barnett and Austin Palmer. Percussion: Killian Deno, Leslie Moya, Lisette Moya, Kate Gore, Dayton Cummins and Chante’ Miller. Color guard: Katherine Breeden, Nikita Fischer and Sabrina Dunning.
