Kerr High School congratulates Diego Salgado for making the 2024 TMEA All-State Band.  

Diego made 2nd Chair Tuba at Area this Saturday and has earned a position in the 4A All-State Band. 

More than 10,000 high school band students from across Texas auditioned in twenty-two different regions for a place in their respective all-region bands. The top chairs in each region advanced to one of the five area auditions held this past weekend across the state. Only 20 students were selected for the All-State Jazz Band and only 286 students were selected for the two All-State Concert Bands! The All-State Bands will meet in rehearsals in San Antonio, Texas, February 7-10, 2024, and will present a concert beginning at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, February 10, 2024, in the Lila Cockrell Theatre of the Henry B. Gonzales Convention Center in downtown San Antonio. William Owens (Composer and Retired Educator) will be the clinician-conductor of the All-State Concert Band which will premier his composition White Crow (commissioned by ATSSB for this concert). Dr. Michael Golemo (Iowa State University) will be the clinician-conductor of the All-State Symphonic Band which will perform at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, February 10, 2024, in the Convention Center Hemisfair Ballroom 1-2.  All of the All-State Concerts are FREE and open to the public.
