The Marching Band Division at the Music for All Summer Symposium offers students inspiring experiences! This program is ideal for section leaders, with staff from some of the best high schools in America teaching innovative, current, and relevant information on music and marching fundamentals. The curriculum is challenging for all levels. The marching band division teaches more than just marching and music. Students learn the basic principles of dance and body movement. They learn how to communicate with section-mates, and how to read drill charts and clean drill. We are laser-focused on fundamentals and development of the individual, both musically and visually. Students learn skills that are applicable to all band programs and we encourage them to take these skills back to their own bands to grow in a positive direction.
Carolina Crown Drum & Bugle Corps
Corps-in-Residence
Music for All is pleased, to welcome Carolina Crown, corps-in-residence, to the 2022 Summer Symposium. Marching Band students will work with Carolina Crown teaching staff, rehearse with the Corps, and perform on the field for a combined performance at the DCI Central Indiana drum corps show Friday night. Students will go “Inside the Circle” with Carolina Crown and experience the world class champions in a way that few are allowed. This will all truly be an incredible, life-changing experience!
Two performance opportunities
The Marching Band division students will perform on field with Carolina Crown, Friday evening, July 1, 2022. Tickets are available through DCI at dci.org.
Marching Band students will also perform Saturday, July 2, as part of the camp “final performances” for campers, parents, and families (note: this performance is not with the drum corps).

Marching Band Division Music and Placement Information
Sheet music for marching band is available and posted below.
Richard Saucedo’s arrangement of the National Anthem must be learned and memorized prior to your arrival at camp. Carolina Crown music does not have to be memorized but should be worked on as much as possible. If more than one part is written for your instrument, please practice the part that you are most comfortable with.
Marching Band placements will occur during the first Marching Band session on Monday of camp. Students will play excerpts from the music for the instructors, and based upon ability and how well they know the music, will be split into parts to balance the ensemble.
