Hudson Sound Machine
The Hudson Band has 310 students in 6-8 grade. We have 4 advanced bands, a beginner band where students learn in like-instrument classes, and a jazz band. So far this school year, we have had 25 students earn a spot in the GISD All-District Band and/or the TMEA Region 3 All-Region Band. Of those students, 3 earned the distinction of being 1st chair. In 2019 we became the first middle school in Garland ISD history to have 3 middle school bands earn the Sweepstakes award at the UIL Concert & Sightreading Evaluation. During the 2018-2019 school year, our students earned 267 first division medals at the Solo & Ensemble competitions. Our Wind Symphony was ranked 6th in the region in their first time entering the TMEA CCC Honor Band Competition. Our bands regularly receive superior ratings at contests and festivals around the DFW metroplex.
