  • 2021-Brass-Audition-Packet.Pdf
    Dear Brass Line Candidate, Thank you for your interest in the 7th Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps! This packet will serve as your primary resource for video auditions. Read everything in this booklet carefully and prepare all of the required materials to the best of your ability. VISUAL AUDITION MATERIALS Basics of Marching Technique: Our technique program is “straight leg” marching; that is, we ​ ​ strive for the longest line between our hip and ankle bone at all times. Allowing the leg to bend at the knee shortens that line. The following are basic definitions for those who are unfamiliar with our technique. ● We stand in first position. With your heels together you will turn your feet outward 45 ​ ​ degrees. This turnout will come from the hips. Make sure your knees are in line with your middle toe. ● Horn Carriage: When at playing position (or carry) create a wide triangle with your ​ ​ forearms and horn. ● Forward March: articulate each beat with the back of your heel as you move forward and ​ ​ generate the longest possible leg line on the crossing counts. ● Backwards March: articulate each beat with the platform of your foot keeping your heel ​ low to the ground as you move backward and generate the longest possible leg line on the crossing counts. ● Crossing Counts: The point at which your ankle bones are right next to each other while ​ marching. This should happen on the ‘& count’ when marching in a duple (4/4) meter. ● 5 Points of Alignment: generate uniform posture by keeping your ears (1), shoulders (2), ​ hips (3), and knees (4) stacked vertically from your ankle bones (5).

  • Brass Teacherõs Guide
    Teacher’s Guide Brass ® by Robert W.Getchell, Ph. D. Foreword This manual includes only the information most pertinent to the techniques of teaching and playing the instruments of the brass family. Its principal objective is to be of practical help to the instrumental teacher whose major instrument is not brass. In addition, the contents have purposely been arranged to make the manual serve as a basic text for brass technique courses at the college level. The manual should also help the brass player to understand the technical possibilities and limitations of his instrument. But since it does not pretend to be an exhaustive study, it should be supplemented in this last purpose by additional explanation from the instructor or additional reading by the student. General Characteristics of all Brass Instruments Of the many wind instruments, those comprising the brass family are perhaps the most closely interrelated as regards principles of tone production, embouchure, and acoustical characteristics. A discussion of the characteristics common to all brass instruments should be helpful in clarifying certain points concerning the individual instruments of the brass family to be discussed later. TONE PRODUCTION. The principle of tone production in brass instruments is the lip-reed principle, peculiar to instruments of the brass family, and characterized by the vibration of the lip or lips which sets the sound waves in motion. One might describe the lip or lips as the generator, the tubing of the instrument as the resonator, and the bell of the instrument as the amplifier. EMBOUCHURE. It is imperative that prospective brass players be carefully selected, as perhaps the most important measure of success or failure in a brass player, musicianship notwithstanding, is the degree of flexibility and muscular texture in his lips.

  • Show Design and Wind Arranging for Marching Ensembles
    Show Design and Wind Arranging for Marching Ensembles Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Music in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By John Michael Brennan, B.M.E. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2014 Thesis Committee: Professor Daryl W. Kinney, Advisor Professor Timothy Gerber Professor Thomas Wells Director Jonathan Waters Copyrighted by John Michael Brennan 2014 Abstract The purpose this study is to illustrate current trends in show design and wind arranging within the marching band and drum corps activity. Through a comprehensive review of literature a need for further study on this subject was discovered. Specifically, texts from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s focused primarily on marching band arranging practices with minimal influence of show design. Since the 1980s, several documents have been written that discuss show design with some degree of detail, but have neglected to thoroughly address changes in marching band arranging. It is the aim of this thesis to discuss current trends and techniques in marching band wind arranging, and the higher level of detail placed into show conceptualization used by drum corps, competitive, and show band. ii Dedication To Rachael, the most patient, loving, and caring wife a husband could ever ask for. To my daughter Ellie Ann, who I cannot wait to meet in the coming weeks. iii Acknowledgements First and foremost, my family has helped me immensely both in my personal and professional life. It is without their support, witty commentary (especially from my brother’s), and encouragement that I have been able to work in a field I am passionate about.

  • 2018 Carolina Band New Member Audition Instructions
    2018 Carolina Band New Member Audition Instructions Welcome! We are delighted that you are interested in joining the University of South Carolina Marching Band, “The Mighty Sound of the Southeast.” Incoming students are required to submit a brief audition video in order to be considered for membership in the band. Please do not stress about the process! We want you to relax and demonstrate whether you have the skills necessary to have a successful and exciting experience in the Carolina Band. Follow these instructions and see the “Frequently Asked Questions” section below. If you still have more questions, please e-mail [email protected] or call (803) 777- 4278. We are here to help you! 1. Prepare for your audition – You will need to play any 2-3 minute solo that sounds great. It can be a solo, an etude, something from a method book, or even an excerpt of your band music. Your band director can help you choose the best selection. Also, you should prepare your part for our fight song, Step to the Rear (see following pages for sheet music). For Step to the Rear choose whichever part fits you the best and play in cut time at half note=132-136. Take only the 2nd ending after measure 40, and play to the end. 2. Make your video – Using your computer, tablet, phone, or video camera, record yourself facing the camera and playing the required music. Be careful not to put the camera too close to you so that the sound is not distorted. It’s best to put both pieces into one video, but if you make separate videos, that’s OK.
