Royal High School is proud to celebrate the outstanding achievements of its talented band students at the 2025 Texas State Solo & Ensemble Competition, held at Hendrickson High School in Pflugerville, TX.
Two students earned high individual honors:
🏅 Eduardo Acousta (Freshman) and Damian Ramirez (Senior) both received Excellent Ratings for their solo performances.
The school's Brass Quintet made history by earning a Superior Rating in the ensemble category—a first for Royal High School at this prestigious competition. The quintet includes:
Devin Ruley, Sophomore Trumpet
Oliver Vince, Freshman Trumpet
Christian Solorio, Junior French Horn

Edwin Majano, Sophomore Tuba
All seven students who participated in the event earned medals, a testament to their dedication, discipline, and musical excellence.
