Solo & Ensemble 2021
This year, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the solo and ensemble program was virtual. Students recorded their performance in an app, and submitted it to the judging team that provided evaluation and feedback. Only one round was held and events were evaluated as if it were the MSHSAA State Music Festival. Everyone with their name on this list is to be commended for the effort that it took to participate in this new, unusual format with fewer preparation class periods for Winds and shorter classes in Symphonic.
