On Wednesday, February 4th, two of our incredibly talented CRHS band students participated in the All Region Band event! They spent the entire day in intensive rehearsals, working on challenging music alongside the top student musicians from across the region.
After a full day of dedication and hard work, they took the stage that evening for a spectacular concert showcasing their talent and commitment to excellence. We are so proud of these students for representing our school with harmony, heart, and professionalism!
Students who earned a spot in the All Region Concert Band:
🎷 Ulysses Lopez – Alto Saxophone
🎶 Liliana Ruelas-Magana – Clarinet
Congratulations on this outstanding achievement! Your hard work continues to make CRHS proud! 👏🎵
January 15–17, 2026 🎶
For over 60 years, the Four States Bandmasters Association has provided outstanding music education and professional development opportunities for band students and directors within a 100-mile radius of Texarkana.
What began as an opportunity for directors to gather and hear new compositions has grown into an incredible event featuring selected student performers, clinics, and invited honor bands from across the region. Today, the association hosts two concert bands of approximately 100 students each, along with a jazz band of standard instrumentation.
Students are nominated by their band director and selected based on their resume of musical achievements — making this a tremendous honor!
We are proud to announce the following students were selected for the Concert Bands:
🎺 Elizabeth Hopkins – Euphonium
🎷 Ulysses Lopez – Alto Saxophone
🎶 Liliana Ruelas-Magana – Clarinet
🎺 Clinton Tunnell – Trombone
Congratulations to these outstanding musicians for representing our program with excellence! 👏🎵
🎶 CRHS Band Students Attend Arkansas Tech University: Member for a Day Event – November 15, 2025 🎶
Last fall, three CRHS band students traveled to Arkansas Tech University to participate in “Member for a Day” — and what an unforgettable experience it was!
Students took part in a morning rehearsal, enjoyed a campus tour and lunch, and had the incredible opportunity to march into the stadium alongside the band. They performed in the stands with pep band music and fully experienced game day from a musician’s perspective. The highlight of the day was performing in the halftime show with over 500 musicians, including the ATU Arkansas Band of Distinction. What an amazing moment!
We are so proud of our students for representing Cossatot River at ATU. This is an experience they will never forget!
🎷 Ulysses Lopez – Alto Saxophone
🎷 Phillip Hackney – Alto Saxophone
🎶 Liliana Ruelas-Magana – Clarinet
Way to go, musicians! 👏🎵
