I was not in a class band‚ and although marching band motivated me to join a concert band‚ watching these guys play was the final push I needed to join. I took up playing saxophone the end of my junior year‚ and although knowing how difficult it would be to try and get on the level of the other kids‚ who have been playing far longer than me‚ I was determined to learn‚ so I took lessons with the woodwind advisor for our marching band. Although I came into the band only playing for three months

For my community service hours this quarter‚ one thing I worked at was Pep Band for various basketball games‚ mostly the Friday home games. I play the Baritone in our band‚ and I believe that I chose this project due to reasons stated in the social cognitive personality theory. As I know that I play in a group and I need to help the group‚ I set goals for myself‚ and for me to get better‚ I need to practice‚ and I can get practice at the basketball games. I also believe that as stated in this theory

An average marching wind ensemble practice begins with a simple stretch and review of the basic marching techniques. They begin one week before the fall semester starts. Normal “band camp” days involve basic technique practices on the field in the morning‚ rehearsal after lunch‚ and a combination of the marching and music after their dinner.

Loyalty‚ dedication‚ perseverance‚ the willingness to take advice from other people‚ and the ability to be able to work with others are some of the personal strengths that I have and will use to make this band a better program. Some areas that this band program needs to improve on are the way the members take it for granted the fact that they have a program. Honestly it is ridiculous that some of our own leaders don’t follow their own orders‚ and as a result it becomes a habit for others to follow

game of the season and I was here helping out the band in the concession stands. For the past few weeks‚ I have been trying to get Alexa to become a part of the marching lions with her siblings but she keeps on stubbornly refusing.

We watched the band get off of the buses and skip in through the gates

athletes. I am surprised by how little of that praise is directed toward marching bands‚ though. It’s actually much more difficult and tasking than people think! As a general statement‚ each member of the band has to remember every single movement‚ every single piece of music to be played‚ and how these two items are to be played or marched.
