JAMES CLEMENS HIGH SCHOOL WIND ENSEMBLE
James Clemens High School opened in August of 2012. In its first year, the JCHS Marching Band fielded 87 members, earning superior ratings at all marching competitions as well as Best in Class Band and Best in Class Percussion awards. The following Spring, the Symphonic Band earned Superiors with Distinction at State Music Performance Assessment, performing an A class program. The Symphonic Band also competed in Atlanta, GA, receiving a superior rating, outstanding brass, and outstanding woodwind awards. In its second year, the band grew to almost 130 members in the marching band, and was able to divide into a Wind Ensemble and Concert Band in the spring of 2014. Performing a class A program, the Wind Ensemble received Superiors with Distinction, and was the only band in the Madison City School system to earn this rating. In the fall of 2014, the marching band grew to almost 160 members and continued its reputation
of superior ratings and Best in Class Awards. In the spring of 2015, the band performed a class AA program, receiving straight superior ratings, and once again was the only band program in the system to do so. The Wind Ensemble also competed in St. Louis, MO and received a superior rating and the Outstanding Instrumental award, given to the highest scoring instrumental ensemble at the event, regardless of class. The James Clemens High School Wind Ensemble strives to “Be the Example” in all areas. From programming quality literature to performing that literature with excellence, the ensemble’s goal is to be a standard bearer for music education.
