We are honored to host this incredible marching band competition on September 27, 2014. The Oakton Classic brings student musicians on a field to display their skills and abilities outside of the classroom. An event of this caliber could not happen without the band directors, parents, and many volunteers who have helped make the Classic possible. We extend our sincere thanks to all those involved for continuing to support the Oakton Classic through your time and talents. Best wishes to all participants. Oakton High School has earned the Virginia Honor Band distinction 20 times so we understand that dedication, talent, and hard work is required to maintain the level of excellence that will be displayed on the field at the Classic Invitation. I know that the Oakton Classic will provide everyone with a day of entertainment and a great respect for the efforts you have put into preparing for this competition. Sincerely, John A.

How to Rate the Bands The Oakton Classic follows the Virginia Band and Orchestra Association (VBODA) class size and judging guidelines. Trophies are presented to each VBODA class along with the Gold, Burgundy and Grand Champion awards. Today, while you are enjoying the performance of each band, keep in mind that the judges are rating each band’s performance in five different categories: Music Performance: quality of the sound; tone quality; control intonation; balance and blend; technique: articulation, pulse, subdivision, facility, attacks and releases. Visual Performance: technique of marchers, distance, body carriage, movement, equipment, ensemble form, space, time, style, precision, accuracy. General Effect: design of the program, quality, substance, depth of repertoire, continuity, staging of program, suitability of ensemble. Percussion: quality of orchestration, creativity and variety, simultaneous responsibility, visual musicality, unity of all elements, precision, consistency, clarity, and individual technique. Color Guard: range of form, body, and equipment, use within the overall show design, use of expressive and technical components, enhancement of musical structure, simultaneous responsibilities, demonstration of training, achievement of body and equipment challenges, precision with respect to overall challenges. continued 2014 Oakton Class Award Sheet Class A Class 2A (up to 50 musicians) (51-70 musicians) Class 3A (71-95 musicians) 1st Place 2nd Place 3rd Place Cougar Burgundy Award (Overall first place in classes 1A-2A) Cougar Gold Award (Overall first place in classes 3A-5A) 9 Class 4A Class 5A (96-130 musicians) (131+ musicians) 29TH ANNUAL OAKTON CLASSIC Judge Bios (continued) ner has 37 years of experience and has taught at Falls Church High School, Lake Braddock Secondary, Woodbridge High School and James River High School.
