ALLIANCE is looking for color guard!

[Shamrocker]

ALLIANCE Drum & Bugle Corps, an all-age corps based in the greater Atlanta area, is looking for experienced color guard members to fill the last spots in our guard.

Marching with ALLIANCE is both a demanding and rewarding experience. The corps operates with a competitive and focused approach, inspired by the DCI experience of its’ staff and members. It’s a perfect choice for performers who are no longer age-eligible for a DCI organization, or cannot afford the time and/or financial commitment to tour with a DCI group for the entire summer. Our 2011 production, titled “INFERNO,” brings a blend of familiar drum corps favorites back to the field, including: Infernal Dance by Igor Stravinsky, Fire of Eternal Glory by Dimitri Shostakovich, The Inferno by Robert W. Smith, and Firebird Finale by Igor Stravinsky. The corps will also be enjoying new uniforms, thanks in part to a recent grant from the Chase Community Giving program.

We especially welcome those with previous drum corps experience, even if that experience was limited to a single audition. If a student is unable to join the DCI corps of his or her choice, we encourage him or her to audition at ALLIANCE. Our corps is a great option for those considering marching with a DCI corps for many reasons. It’s often closer, cheaper, and offers a more flexible schedule. The cost to participate is much lower than many World Class corps in DCI, often less than half, but the quality of instruction at ALLIANCE is just as high. Members are able to work off dues through sponsored fund raising opportunities. Rehearsals are held during scheduled weekends throughout the spring and summer, so members are able to participate in drum corps while holding a job or attending school. Don't live in Atlanta? Don't worry! We have members coming from all over GA, SC, AL, TN, and IN.

2011 is going to be an incredibly exciting season and the largest yet for the corps. For those interested and for any additional questions or details, please contact me. Our next rehearsal will be held April 9th and 10th, and all new faces are invited. A complete schedule can be found on our website @ http://alliancedrumcorps.org.
