Hebron High School Band 2021 Trombone Cam - PenStriped

This video is GoPro footage from our rehearsal at Ronald Reagan High School before UIL State Marching Band Contest. Hope you enjoy!

[@The_PorkchopExpress]

I hope these kids realize how lucky they are to attend a school with such a program. Most, and I say most, American kids do not have access to anything like this. Not only well funded, but extremely well taught.

[@biggitybiggity_boggs]

While we don’t have as much funding as other finalist bands, we still do have a lot compared to so many other organizations and I hope everyone at Hebron recognizes that. I think the middle school teaching is really what has put us in the position that we’re in and I know for a fact how much people are thankful for that. I know I’m very lucky

[@joshbiddinger1744]

I graduated Hebron in 2012 and was a music major at UTEP for a year. The biggest culture shock between what quickly became two completely different worlds was the approach and attitude towards success and excellence. The expectation at schools like Hebron and Marcus are extremely high. If you goof off or skip a practice or two you'll be replaced by one of the many alternates eager to take the field. I've seen plenty of bands they celebrated a UIL region sweepstakes like it was winning state. The older I've gotten the more I've appreciated the culture and the high demand that started with Mr. Sealy way back in 2003 when he started at Hebron and has slowly built overtime within the program and pushed higher and higher by the student body.

[@snail415]

@@joshbiddinger1744 Amen. Excellence is not a purchase. It is a choice. And it has to be engrained and demonstrated by its leader. Once that takes-off, a child who witnesses it quickly sprints towards becoming high-performing adult. Hebron and other like schools recognize that elementary school and middle school are not siloed. They are a system that the high school depends upon to prepare future musicians. Hebron demonstrates the product of this approach, and reaps the benefits. Those unfamiliar to such a culture (of work, of quality, of focus, of selflessness) see it all like an anomaly, or worse, a financial outcome. That bothers me.

I don’t have marching band at my school and it’s so disappointing and sad

[@40wolfmarim95]

Homie. Not most. Some. I've been to many schools and all of em had a marching band program and an alright one too. Well funded.

[@MiraDaWulf]

Holy crap y'all are past good funding, these players are genuinely AWESOME. Trombones playing moving 16th notes? This game isn't even fair. 100% deserve state champs with y'all's hornline.

[@biggitybiggity_boggs]

Thank you so much. It was this year when the trombones really started to shine and I’m so proud of all of them

[@MiraDaWulf]

@@biggitybiggity_boggs awesome! Glad that your section became just super cracked out even for your band. Congrats on all of your achievements this year!

i love that you can hear gian’s tone playing the woodwind run before the last hit of the opener. plus seeing him in frame and realizing that this is the headcam from the trombone sound that overtook his audio for a second when he did the lean

you guys play better on the move than my school does playing in a winter or spring concert. Absolutely Nuts!

[@AuroraWDF]

I believe those where 16th notes at 2:32 but when i heard those i jumped out my seat as a freshman in college doing marching band i still have trouble hitting those while marching and the tone is so amazing was simply impressed through the whole video and the horn snap at the beginning was perfect 🤌🏽 6:27 is prob one of my favorite parts out the whole video ngl

[@snail415]

As a former trombone player and current Reagan parent, I must say you sound sublime. Was an honor to see you guys crush it at State this year. Absolute fireball of an intro; I knew right then the day was yours. Lot of love from Reagan Band players. You guys were sorely missed at Grand Nats, and I firmly believe you all would’ve taken the whole enchilada there. Cheers.

[@hotbowl7578]

as somebody from LT and watching you guys in the stands at state, you guys did freakin amazing and I get chills every time I listen to your show.

I never really considered how good trombone's sound, and your playing really just showed it to me. I'm a clarinet player so I'm mostly focus on my own thing and can't ever hear it in my class.

What Trombone do you play with for marching band? My school prefers us to use straight, small bore trombones (I play on a King 2BSXG), and I don't see many larger bore, f-attachment trombones used for marching in my area.

[@biggitybiggity_boggs]

We all play large bore horns and they’re typically Bach 42s or yamaha intermediates. There are a few eastmans and other horns though.

[@darienyu4790]

That's pretty cool, I switched from French Horn to Trombone (made First Chair in my school's top band as a Sophmore 😁) this year and almost got a Bach 42BO for my concert horn, but got a silver plated Conn 88H instead. Might get an upgrade to a Shires or Edwards if I can make it to the St. Louis Symphony Youth Orchestra this year. What horn do you use for Concert season if you don't mind me asking?
