Congratulations to the TBHS Class of 2023! This group of seniors includes the students from my first ever beginning band at TMS. I can't believe they're this grown up.

What a wonderful evening for our Symphonic Band. We were fortunate to share a concert with the MU Wind Ensemble. We even got to hear TBHS alum Anton Yang with MU. Thank you so much to Dr. Brian Silvey and the MU School of Music for providing such a great experience for students.

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

It's amazing to get to see these kids play on the same concert as Mizzou's Wind Ensemble. I remember so many of these students when they were at TMS, and it's wonderful to see them grow into terrific musicians.

The band directors have been working on a project celebrating the history and tradition of the Buchanan/Troy Buchanan High School Band. We think it was a great addition to our room. If you were in the BHS/TBHS Band, let us know which uniform you wore when you were in high school

Tonight’s concert at the Missouri Music Educators Conference was the All-Collegiate Jazz Ensemble. Troy alum Matt Hamilton was a member of this group and did an outstanding job. Way to go Matt!

Excited to see #SCBands alumnus Wyatt Flandermeyer perform at #MMEA with @UCMMusic Jazz Ensemble 1!

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

Being back at MMEA is always a great source of inspiration. Looking forward to great concerts and clinics.

Prime-numbered interval-classes form the backbone of all tonal music. Can this possibly be just a coincidence?

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

We are so proud of Gabe Toderescu-Stavila and Holden Fox for their accomplishments at All-State Band auditions today. Gabe was named second chair oboe in the honorable mention band, and Holden was selected as the first chair contra clarinet in the all-state band.

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

Nine S-C band students earned spots in the West Central honor ensembles today, and four of them qualified to audition for state. It was a good day for Sedalia music.

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

I remember a bunch of these students as middle schoolers. It's great to see them achieving at such a high level!

[Trojan Pride Bands @TBHSBands]

Congratulations to the TBHS students who earned a spot in one of the All-District Bands.

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

Not everybody gets a chance to see their drum major flown by the cheerleaders, so you have to seize it.

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

Like I tell the kids, the numbers on the sheets are not what's important. But it's awesome for the students when the judges recognize their hard work and achievement.

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

What an incredible end to our season. The kids had their best performances in the last two days, by a country mile.

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

Excited to be on my way to Indy for DCI World Championships today! Great to be headed back after two years off.

[Smith-Cotton Bands @SCBands]

We are very proud of senior Jones Knight for her hard work at drum major camp last week. Congratulations, Jones!

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

This is all in good fun of course. Dr. Harbaugh and the Jeff City HS band are fantastic people.

[Mr. Meigel @MrMeigel]

Man, I just found out the @Crossmen are staying an hour away from us. How do I convince them to come stay here next year instead?
