STATE HONORS BAND
The Wisconsin School Music Association (WSMA) High School State Honors Music Project recently announced membership for the 2010 season. Cumberland High School has three students who successfully completed the grueling audition process to make the Wisconsin All State Band.
The project celebrates talent through music by bringing students together to work with nationally recognized conductors and some of the best teachers our state has to offer. The result is truly an inspired performance that is a credit to the student's talent, school, teacher and community, said Tim Wurgler, WSMA program director.
Shawn Muench, Jim Lexen, and Laura Proescholdt will represent Cumberland High School for a 3-1/2 day summer camp in June and perform in Madison during late October as part of the Wisconsin State Music Conference.
More than 1,800 students in grades 9, 10 and 11 auditioned for 430 positions in the WSMA High School State Honors Music Project ensembles. The auditions were held in seven sites across the state this past February. Only 100 were selected to perform in the band.
Most schools are fortunate if one student is chosen for this honor, said director Dan Hopkins. The selection of three students from Cumberland speaks volumes about the musicianship, dedication, and work ethic Shawn, Jim, and Laura poses, he concluded.
All Honors concerts celebrate the remarkable achievements of Wisconsins finest young musicians and are open to the public. For more information, go to www.wsmamusic.org.
WELCOME NEW PARENTS
Registration for incoming freshmen starts on February 8th. Please talk to your son/daughter about the benefits of participating in the high school band!
Participation In Band Will Help You Succeed In Life!
Research confirms that music education in school greatly increases the likelihood that a child will grow up to seek higher education and ultimately earn a higher salary. If you want to be a CEO, college president or even a rock star, the message from this study is: take music. As with reading, writing and arithmetic, music should be a core academic focus because it is so vital to a well-rounded education and will pay dividends later in life, no matter the career path taken. Official Report, Harris Research Center, 2007
In a 2000 study, 73 researchers found that teens that play an instrument are less likely to have discipline problems. American Music Conference, 2000.
Students who can perform complex rhythms can also make faster and more precise corrections in many academic and physical situations, according to the Center for Timing Coordination, and Motor Skills. Rhythm seen as key to music's evolutionary role in human intellectual development, Center for Timing, Coordination, and Motor Skills, 2000.
A ten-year study indicates that students who study music achieve higher test scores, regardless of socioeconomic background. Dr. James Catterall, UCLA. 2009
Students who are rhythmically skilled also tend to better plan, sequence, and coordinate actions in their daily lives. Cassily Column of the TCAMS Professional Resource Center, 2000.
In a 1999 Columbia university study, students in the arts are found to be more cooperative with teachers and peers, more self-confident, and better able to express their ideas. These benefits exist across socioeconomic levels. The Arts Education Partnership, 1999.
College admissions officers continue to cite participation in music as an important factor in making admissions decisions. They claim that music participation demonstrates time management, creativity, expression, and open-mindedness. Carl Hartman, "Arts May Improve Students' Grades," The Associated Press, October 1999.
