SHHS jazz band succeeds at region Skyler Carr SHHS Salem Hills Jazz Band went to region competition on Wednesday, March 3, 2010 at Payson High School. They attained a higher score than all of the other schools. They started with a song called "Blue Not Spe- cial." The second song they played was called "Spring," which was their most difficult piece. They nailed it and received a perfect score on it. The last and final song that they played at region was "Basie Straight Ahead." They played well; they were awarded perfect scores and qualified for state competition. "I thought that this jazz band region concert at Payson High School was very good and very entertaining. I could tell that our jazz band worked really hard and that they deserved to be at Region. Not only that, they also deserved to qualify for state which is exactly what they did! I felt that the oth- er jazz bands at the other schools were not as creative and energetic when it came to their songs. When our hardworking jazz band came on, you could feel the energy in their playing. We all know that the Jazz band really deserved winning region and qualifying for state," said Tyler Hayes.
