In the All Region Jazz auditions, there were 39 trumpets who auditioned and only ten 10 would make it, and I got 10th chair, so I was last chair in the 2nd jazz band for my region, and I had one improvised and one written solo at our concert. For the All Region Concert auditions, there were 73 trumpets who auditioned, and only about 30 trumpets made either band. I was the 2nd chair in the 2nd band, but got 11th chair overall out of 73 trumpets who auditioned. I played the 1st trumpet part with 2 other people at our concert. For Solo and Ensemble, I was in an ensemble with 2 other trumpets and we had to play an ensemble good enough to receive a division 1 rating, which is the highest, and we accomplished that goal. However, we performed a class 2 solo, so we were unable to compete for state solo and ensemble.
