YOUNG BAND REPERTOIRE PROJECT


 

Performance Frequency of Young Band Music

These lists show the 20 most frequently performed works at Texas University Interscholastic League (UIL) concert contests for the indicated school year. (In Texas, UIL is responsible for governing public school competitions in music, sports, etc.) The data was collected at the UIL office in Austin, Texas from reports submitted by each Region chair. This data includes all bands that participated in the state of Texas (between 800 to 1,100 bands, per year). Only Grade 1 and 2 works included on the UIL Prescribed Music List, performed by bands registered in the C classification (no 9th grade), were tabulated.
