2010 Drum Line!
NEW - EXTENDED CAMP WARM UP PACKET!
Battery and Front Ensemble, it is expected that you review all the warm-ups in this extended packet (you can download it just to the right) that pertain to your section and have them ready to play for the three day camp! Please recall it was also our goal to have the opener music memorized by the three day camp! If you have any trouble getting the music to download, open print, etc please contact one of the staff via the contact page as soon as possible!
What's Expected
One major component to a successful percussion ensemble is being able to rely on each member to master their individual parts. Once each member has accomplised this, productivity of group rehearsals go up significantly. In order to acheive mastering your indivdual part it's vital that each individual get in to a regular practice schedule to work on the individual fundamentals taught at each camp. Utilizing precious group rehearsal time as individual practice time is not a good idea. We openly admit that drum line is hard work and requires additional group rehearsal time above and beyond regular band rehearsals. Conflicts inevitably happen; how and when you communicate them greatly determines the outcome.
