MUSM 495 & MUSM 595 ASSIGNMENT

Based on your experience as a member of the Minnesota Brass Drum & Bugle Corps choose a specific musical, movement/marching, or organizational/logistics topic, and write a minimum two page instructional document describing in detail the chosen topic followed by a complete description of how it was addressed in rehearsals and performances. Advice from instructors and staff may be included in the document as well as your own viewpoint on the best teaching methods for the specific topic.

The finished document will serve as a resource for music and movement/marching teachers as well as future members of the Minnesota Brass Drum & Bugle Corps. With permission of the student, the final document will be posted online on the web site of the St. Cloud State University Department of Music as a resource for other students and teachers.
