We would like to take this opportunity to welcome all performers, parents, school administrators,

friends and music boosters to the 2011 Ohio Music Education Association State Marching Band

Finals. During the five days of performances you will see and hear some of the finest high school

marching bands in the state of Ohio. You are about to see the true meaning of creativity, imagination,

dedication and commitment.

The OMEA State Marching Band Finals have evolved in a positive, educational manner due to the

commitment and leadership provided by our past Marching Band Affairs Chairs. They are: Stephan

Berry, Richard Rhodes, Larry Kelley, William Guegold, William Wittman, Randall Clark, Michael Galle-

hue, Patricia Meeks, John Purdy, Brian Stevens, and Dave Handshue. We owe these educators a debt of

gratitude for their service and leadership to OMEA. We are proud to take on the responsibilities of the

Marching Band Affairs and Adjudications Chairs to further nurture the marching band activity on the state

of Ohio.

A sincere thank you goes out to the many OMEA officials, volunteer groups, booster groups and the

staff at Dublin Jerome Stadium and Dayton Welcome Stadium who have made these State Finals run

smoothly. We would also like to acknowledge those of you who are proud parents of band members for

your continuing support of Music Education! While these State Marching Band Finals might be the most

visible part of your communities band program, please continue to support your musicians at concerts, pep

bands, winter drumlines, winter guards and the host of other musical activities these students participate

in year-round.

You are about to be amazed by the high level of performances today. Acknowledge those accomplish-

ments—every student is a winner simply by participating. Let the music begin!

Band competition has been a part of the school music scene in Ohio since the early part of this century. The forerunners of the OMEA, the Ohio High School Band Association, and the Ohio School Band and Orchestra Association were all formed, at least in part, to foster com-petition in the state. Following the success of the Fostoria, Ohio Boys Band in winning the first national band contest in 1923 held in Chicago, the Fostoria director, John W. Wainwright, formed the Ohio High School Band Asso-ciation. Ohio’s first contest was held in 1924 in Fostoria with eight bands in attendance. Prize money was supplied by the music industry including Barnhouse Publishers and Conn Instrument Company. There were four adjudicators in these early contests. By 1928 three adjudicators com-mented on the groups’ intonation, instrumentation, tone and harmonic balance, tone quality, precision and interpre-tation, and a fourth judged the band in sight-reading. In 1932 the newly formed Ohio Music Education Associa-tion stated among its goals “the promotion of state-wide contests in vocal and instrumental music.” Furthermore, when OMEA affiliated with MENC (Music Educators National Conference) in 1934 the two groups’ statement concerning contests mentioned that the purpose of these contests is to promote education through music.

The Contest Committee of OMEA was formed in 1934 for the purpose of overseeing contest operations in Ohio. The committee recommended in 1935 that these contests deviate from the practice of assigning ratings and points for the bands’ performances and begin to use a “rat-ings only” method of adjudication. In 1936 the commit-tee recommended that the State adopt a “five rating plan.” The former six rating plan included the levels “superior, excellent, very good, good, fair, and poor.” Each of these levels was assigned points with a superior worth 10, excel-lent 7, very good 4, good 2, fair 1, and poor 0. The new system deleted the “very good” category, as well as doing away with the point system. The sight reading rating could lower the overall rating if it was more than one rating lower than the final rating of the three combined judges.

Competitions were suspended in the state dur-ing World War II and ran into rough times in the 1950s when school administrator associations and the North Central Association recommended that other than ath-

letic contests, inter-scholastic events should be curtailed. This recommendation was rescinded in 1951, leaving such determination up to the individual school systems.

In 1951 Ohio began to use the district/state levels of adjudication still in use today. Bands that received a “I” or “superior” rating in the district contest then advanced into the state level several weeks later in the spring. The five rating plan was refined so that there was a well-defined standard assigned to each rating. This statement of stan-dards still accompanies the five rating plan today.

Beginning in the 1950s and up until 1980, there were as many as ten different marching band competitions held at various schools each fall throughout the state. Several of the most noted were held at Fairborn, Roger Bacon, Mari-etta, West Jefferson, Zanesville, Wadsworth and Mar-lington High Schools. The Marching Bands of America contest movement was just beginning to be a force in the state by the late 1970s. Several Ohio bands that were fairly close to neighboring states participated in contests in such circuits as the Pennsylvania Federation of Contest Judges and the Mid-West Judges’ Circuit. Each of these con-tests used similar, yet distinctive rules and regulations and announced rankings of the groups participating. Classifi-cations of groups were generally determined by band size and prizes were awarded to outstanding auxiliary units and field commanders/drum majors.

In this pre-1980 time period there became a growing increase in the influence and sponsorships of these con-tests by commercial interests such as music companies and corporations (MBA Grand Nationals was sponsored by a national food chain). Nearby states were holding state championships. OMEA began to take an interest in these contests in the mid 1970s and editorials began to mention the problem of director and student burnout associated with contest involvement. There was concern in the ranks of OMEA that commercial interests would soon take con-trol of marching band competitions in Ohio. Some feel that this pushed OMEA into the marching band competi-tion area as much as anything. It is interesting to note that similar concerns were expressed by MENC in the 1920’s when the Conn Company sponsored the National Band Contests. This most likely was one of the reasons MENC took over sponsorship of these contests in 1924.

A History of the OMEA State Marching Band F inals

3

In 1979–80 the OMEA formed an ad hoc commit-tee to study various proposals for the formation of a state marching band finals and sanctioned contests. Members of this committee included Steve Berry, Dick Cool, Gary Tirey, Jim Swearingen, Tim Swinehart, Max Treier, and was chaired by Jack Evans—former director of The Ohio State University Marching Band.

The following goals statements came from this committee:

1. To provide at the state level, for those interested in marching band competitions, a competitive event con-trolled by OMEA. Rules and regulations for this event would follow as closely as possible the rules and regu-lations for other OMEA Competitive Festivals.

2. To encourage the co-existence of the many indepen-dent (invitational, etc.) marching band contests and festivals now operating in Ohio by making it possible for these contests to serve as qualifying contests for the OMEA State Competition. Some flexibility in the operation of qualifying contests is included to meet local traditions and conditions.

3. To bring about, in Marching Band Competitions in the State of Ohio, standardization of rules, procedures, and adjudication through the required guidelines for qualifying contests including the use of OMEA adju-

dication forms and scoring systems. The intent is to provide competition in which recognition is given for the quality of performance regardless of the type of band or style of marching.

After several revisions and much discussion, the Ohio Music Education Association state board decided at its spring meeting in 1980 to sanction marching band con-tests that followed the OMEA designated format and gave permission to hold the first State Finals on November 1, 1980. The OMEA Marching Band Guidelines were pub-lished in the Triad and were available from Steve Berry. Mr. Berry served for five years as the first “Marching Band Affairs Chair” on the OMEA Competitions Committee. Bands were eligible to participate in the State Finals if they received a “I” or “superior” rating at one of the sixteen OMEA-sanctioned contests using the OMEA rules and regulations. Thirty-six bands qualified the first year. The number of qualifying contests grew to thirty in 1981 with sixty-four attending the State Finals.

In subsequent years the complexity of the guide-lines grew from a two-page outline into a forty five page handbook of rules and regulations that includes a com-prehensive section dealing with caption area adjudica-tion training, contest management, and the philosophy of competing in marching band contests in Ohio. In the

HIS

development of this handbook, several “rules congresses” were attended by representatives from each of the OMEA districts in the state. Richard Rhodes, Larry Kelley, Wil-liam Guegold, William Wittman, Randall Clark, Michael Gallehue, Patricia Meeks, John Purdy, David Handshue, and Brian Stevens have followed Steve Berry as Marching Band Affairs Chairs.

In February of 1982 at the OMEA State Professional Conference held in Cincinnati, there began a series of “adju-dicator training sessions” to help clarify judging practices and to increase the number of qualified judges available to judge the OMEA system. OMEA contests were required to hire judges from the OMEA-approved list as compiled by the Marching Band Affairs Chair. To become listed in the approved list, prospective judges were required to attend these seminars and make formal application to the March-ing Band Affairs Chair. Adjudication background, personal contest ratings, contest observation, and letters of reference were part of the application and certification process. The prototype 1982 training session format was later expanded and additional sessions were held at Otterbein College and at The Ohio State University. The current scope of these sessions has been expanded to include competing directors and contest chairpersons, as well as adjudicators.

With a greater emphasis placed on the “total” march-ing band program, revisions in Auxiliary, Field Commander,

General Effect, and Music adjudications were implemented in 1996, rewarding those bands showing a trend towards a “holistic” musical and visual program. These changes place more of a premium on the total visual enhancement of the marching band. Today, the “over-all” band rating will be announced, to emphasize the importance of the total band’s performance, rather than each separate entity.

In 2004, a critique system was added to the local event process to allow directors to speak with the adjudicators fol-lowing their performance to gain a better understanding how to improve their bands, and in 2006, visual captions were updated from Marching and Maneuvering Execution and General Effect to Visual Performance and Visual Effect to better reflect current practices in marching band visual design.

The Ohio Music Education Association format of adjudicated marching band events has become a solid foundation for 60–65 local adjudicated events each year. The OMEA State Marching Band Finals continues to improve as bands reach higher levels of achievement and directors gain greater knowledge and experience in this area. An ongoing effort is always taking place to enhance an already strong program brought about by people with a vision to improve music education.

If this is your first marching band adjudicated event, or if you are new to the world of marching bands, you may be wondering how the judges come to their conclusion in rating the performing bands! Perhaps the following will help you to understand the process of judging a band show.

OMEA began the use of a criteria reference system in the 2001 season. This criteria was established over two years of research and study, and implemented for the fall 2001 season. Judges were extensively trained in the summer at con-tinuing education sessions. In order to progress from one rating to the next rating, each band must meet a certain set of criteria. This is listed on each judging sheet as well as on the OMEA web site at www.omea-ohio.org.

There are nine judges involved in the evaluation of the bands. Of these, two evaluate the “musical performance”, two the “general effect” of the show, two judge the “visual program”, one field judge is evaluating the “percussion” section, and two judges concentrate on all auxiliary units of the band. The Overall Final Rating will be determined by the addi-tion of “ratings” from the music, general effect, visual, and percussion judges.

Music judges: evaluate the technical accuracy of the performance. They will concern themselves with how well the wind and percussion sections play together and the repertoire of the music being performed. The score of the percus-sion judge will be averaged with the two music judges to determine the overall music score.

General effect judges: evaluate the musical and visual presentation of all performers, how effective their performance is in the area of creativity and imagination, and how well the music and marching drill coordinate for a unified production.

Visual Performance: will watch the marching performance, evaluate the accuracy of marching definition, and evaluate the construction complexity of the patterns and designs with respect to the number of individuals utilized.

Visual Effect: will determine how well the drill (marching) program interprets the music as well as the coordination of all the visual aspects of the show.

All judges will use SD recorders plus official OMEA marching band adjudication rating sheets. Each band is sched-uled in a fifteen minute time block, starting with an announcement from the announcer that the band may begin it’s pre-placement and/or warm up. A second announcement that the band may begin their performance will follow. “Show time” starts with the first step or the first note following the second announcement. The show must be a mini-mum of seven minutes and a maximum of eleven minutes.

Bands are entered into classifications based on the school enrollment grades 10-12, minus any vocational students who attend school “off campus”. Bands may enter a classification higher but not lower than their school enrollment will allow.

Class AA 901+

Class A 501–900

Class B 301–500

Class C 300 and below

All adjudicators must be selected from the Ohio Music Education Association (OMEA) approved listing.

This marching band event is held under the authority of the Ohio Music Education Association, Jim Dowdy, Presi-dent, and Brian Stevens, Adjudicated Events Chair. In direct charge of this event are JD Latorre, State Finals Chair and OMEA Marching Band Affairs Chair, and Michael Maynard, State Finals Co-Chair and OMEA Marching Band Adjudications Chair.

The Ohio Music Education Association sanctions marching band festivals in the State of Ohio in hopes of providing a broad-based opportunity for marching units of the state’s schools to participate in an educational setting. It is hoped that the adjudicated festival situation would be one in which viable comments and suggestions are offered in a positive, constructive manner to each group and a fair evaluation of the group’s performance is reflected within the Ohio Five Rating Plan as outlined below. It is intended that this system provide the fairest, most consistent experience possible for the marching bands in the State of Ohio.

Ohio bands receiving a final rating of “I” (Superior) in any of the 63 OMEA-sanctioned marching band adjudicated events held this fall are eligible to participate in today’s State Marching Band Finals.

These bands are not competing against one another, but rather against a standard, as determined by the Ohio Five Rating Plan. Each band brings to these State Finals it’s own musical and marching “style” identity, therefore the rank-ing of these bands would be inappropriate for this educational arena. Direct comparisons of this musical and visual art form are discouraged, and for these reasons, the Ohio Music Education Association prefers to “rate” the bands accord-ing to a standard, rather than ranking them.

The bands here today are grouped according to classes as determined by their school enrollment in grades 10–12, excluding vocational students attending a separate school.

An outstanding performance with very few technical errors and exemplifying a truly musical

expression. This should be reserved for the truly outstanding performance.

An unusual performance in many respects, but not worthy of the highest rating due to minor

defects in performance, ineffective interpretation, or improper instrumentation.

An acceptable performance, but not outstanding. Showing marked promise, but lacking in one or

more essential qualities.

A poor performance showing many technical errors, poor musical conception, lack of interpreta-

tion, incomplete instrumentation, or lacking in any of the other essential qualities.

A very poor performance indicating deficiencies in most of the essential factors and indicating

that much careful attention should be given to fundamentals of good performance. This rating

should be used sparingly and only when it is possible to cite major faults.
