Golden Empire Drum Bugle Corps 2018 High Brass Audition Packet Photo Steve Ryan

Dear Applicant, Congratulations on taking your first step towards being a part of the Golden Empire Drum Bugle Corps! I m very excited that you want to join the corps, and I hope your audition experience is one that is informative, challenging, and ultimately positive! What this packet IS: The following audition packet will provide you with some preliminary info and/or exercises that will help you prepare for the workshop/auditions that will take place soon. Some of these exercises will be used all season, and others may only be used as supplemental material. You should become familiar with the material but be ready for additional info at the workshop. What this packet is NOT: This packet is not a comprehensive collection of the technique program you will be learning this season. We will supplement this with more advanced exercises and of course a wealth of practical hands-on training throughout the season. We don t expect you to be able to perform this material perfectly at auditions. Drum corps is all about working hard to be the best we can be and that is an ongoing process. Next steps: Fill out the interest form at geperformingarts.org/join if you haven t already. Download review the audition packet below for your section and start to prepare for auditions. Register for camp at geperformingarts.org/register Check geperformingarts.org for additional info, FAQs, and any updates. Prepare to bring your $0 audition fee to camp. Attend camp ready to learn, work hard, and have fun! Thanks again for taking the first step towards a challenging and rewarding experience! I look forward to meeting you in person at auditions. If you have any questions at all please contact me personally at theasley@geperformingarts.org or call 661-900-0989. Sincerely, Tim Heasley Director, Golden Empire Drum Bugle Corps

Use a metronome. Be able to mark time to all the audition material. During Audition Camp Keep in mind that you are auditioning at all times. Be professional.
