> Hello,

Just wanted to say congratulations. I am also a freshman(first chair
clarinet) in highschool. I live in Michigan, not Texas unfortunantely. I
went to Solo and Ensemble a few weeks ago and got a 1 in a quartet. Our
state competition is at the end of March, but I have no idea when it is for
Texas.

Good Luck at States
