DESCRIPTION:
A Good Attempt at a Marching Band Manual Mr. Previc's book is a good introduction to marching band.In particular, I enjoyed:Chapter 3-- Center and Balance (How a marcher works)Chapter 5-- Medication and Breathing TechniquesChapter 15-- How to Use a Dot BookAs drum corps becomes more and more of an influence on the world of high school marching band, I appreciated that more advanced concepts entered this book.One star was deducted as a warning to more advanced music educators. Please note that I am a very young and inexperie. Good information M. Lisowyj If you are looking for a book that will help give you a few ideas about marching it's worth checking out. There is some good information in here. The author included a several exercies that could help a student of marching but a few more would have been nice. As a former marching member with a successful drum corps and an active marching band instructor I bought this book looking for a few new ideas. Most of the stuff in here I already had a past experience with, but it may be helpfu. Great service!!! I have always been a huge fan of Powell's Books anyway, but they exceeded my expectations with their prompt service. Thanks Powell's!!
