Denton ISD Students Earn 10 of the 20 TMEA All-Region Jazz Ensemble Seats
Denton ISD high school jazz band students participated in the TMEA Region 2 Jazz Ensemble auditions on Saturday, September 18, competing with students from all across Region 2. We are proud to announce that 10 of the 20 positions in the All-Region Jazz Ensemble were awarded to Denton ISD students. These students have the honor of performing with TMEA Region 2 Jazz Ensemble in concert on November 20 at Denton HS. All-Region Jazz Ensemble members also have the opportunity to record an audition for the TMEA All-State Jazz Ensemble. The All-State results will be announced in late November.
Congratulations to these outstanding Denton ISD students for this honor. Many thanks to their jazz band directors, their private lesson teachers, and their parents for their support.
