  • Hurricane Sandy Relief Efiorts at the Bands of America Grand National
    Best Event/Program Within an Event to Benefit a Cause Hurricane Sandy Relief Efforts at the Bands of America Grand National Championships Programs of Music for All Best Event/Program within an Event to Benefit a Cause Best Event / Program within an Event to Benefit a Cause – 46 Music for All/Red Cross Superstorm Sandy Relief Project a. Introduction and Main Event Music for All’s (MFA) Bands of America Grand National Championships is the ultimate culminating performance experience for high school marching bands. Over a three-day period in November, 90 high school marching bands compete with flare, style and drama for the title of Grand National Champion. Open to any high school marching band, Grand Nationals is more than just a competition – it is a life changing experience and students pour their hearts into perfecting their musical craft. Performing in a world-class Indianapolis venue (Lucas Oil Stadium, home of 2012 Super Bowl) for an audience of more than 75,000 is a statement of achievement for these youth. Throughout this event, bands compete in a series of preliminary and final competitions, which are scored based on music performance, visual performance and general effect. This model of competition is considered “best practices” for marching band competitions and reflects how bands effectively use competition as an extension of the scholastic environment. MFA has a rich history that began in 1975, when it was founded as Marching Bands of America. Its original purpose was to provide high school marching bands with a national forum for healthy competition, collaboration and learning.
