Drum Major Candidates: Watch and Print This Material!

Dear Drum Major Candidates,

Thank you for your interest in being the student-leader of the Woodbury Marching Royals for the 2019 Marching Season.  Obviously, the responsibility of the Drum Major is great and goes WAY BEYOND simply conducting the ensemble.  We begin our journey, however, with an audition that will allow us to see how you conduct the band :).  Please find the score to the piece "You're Welcome" which we performed in our 2018 field show.  I have also attached an MP3.  You will conduct this piece with the band on WEDNESDAY, APRIL 17 from 3:15-4 PM.  Please be prepared to address the band on WHY you want to be Drum Major.  Jacques will hold an informal tutor session for Drum Major candidates during ROAR time on Wednesday, April 17 in the band office.  You are invited to attend!  Please remember to sign up for an interview time on Tuesday, April 16th HERE







Sincerely, Mr. K
