The Marching Arts


Recommended Posts

The one section at approx. 1:57:50, a younger voice speaks about, "...I was supposed to march this summer...but now I don't want to..." Then the same voice goes on to talk about how (based on comments on Reddit) that his disappointment/disapproval with the current state of drum corps, "...resonates with much of the fan base..." Interesting comments and a source used that would not be allowable by me as a teacher if a student was doing a research paper. But the overall film is quite interesting, if just from the history standpoint.

Skipped around and actually the blurb on MB drill master A R Casavant. Had his son Charles as the band director at college the one year I was in the band. Charlie did corps style drill in 70s/80s and no more than 150 members. Any more people would “get in the way of my drill”.

ps DCI “forced” corps to go to band instruments in the 90s? If he is talking about allowing all keys then where was the “force”.
