UNA Band Performs for BOA Atlanta
For the first time in its history, the University of North Alabama Pride of Dixie Marching Band performed for the Bands of America Marching Band Super Regional Fall Championship in Atlanta, GA on October 27, 2012.
The band represented the University of North Alabama and the Shoals area by performing three performances for an audience of more than 10,000 high school students, parents and band directors. The Pride of Dixie was invited to perform because of its demonstrated standard of excellence throughout the years.
During this nationally sanctioned event, outstanding high school marching bands competed in one of the nation’s most prominent marching band championships, Music for All’s Bands of America (BOA) Regional Championship at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, GA. The 34+ high school marching bands performed in preliminary competition, evaluated by a panel of
nationally recognized music educators and marching band experts.
The University of North Alabama Pride of Dixie Marching Band demonstrated its excellence, professional sound and clean, crisp marching maneuvers for this highly competitive audience.
Music for All’s mission is to create, provide and expand positively life-changing experiences through music for all. Music for All’s vision is to be a catalyst to ensure that every child across America has access and opportunity to participate in active music making in his or her scholastic environment.
It was a great honor for the University of North Alabama Pride of Dixie Marching Band to be featured during this event.
UNA Director of Bands Dr. Lloyd Jones commented, "The directors and students of the Pride of Dixie were thrilled to represent Alabama as the exhibition band at
the
prelims, opening ceremony, and finals of the Bands of America Super Regional in the Atlanta Georgia Dome." "The students worked diligently to present a performance that would be of a professional caliber and represent our University and Alabama's instrumental music education community in a positive manner."
