Craze for marching band shows



Ask any March band member or even an amateur, he will tell you the importance of the music and its composition for their events. A good composition matching your band’s style & performance is hard to find but it is not something that is climbing the Everest. You must have seen some exemplary & ideal march band shows recently & must be wondering how they selected the music or made the composition. Simply put, length of the music, level of difficulty & ability of your group can help you in selecting suitable marching band compositions. You must analyze your group’s capability & requirements while selecting a composition. Most Compositions involve percussion, pianos, keyboards, flutes or other instruments. A melody can also be a good idea for the show.

You can also go online and select tracks which have been used in the past by bands from other schools/universities use you tube or hire a professional to compose music for your band. A lot of companies and websites sell music and their compositions for march band shows.

Depending upon your budget size and requirements, you may even lookout for a professional company or director with a proven track record managing the music or percussion for you. Furthermore you can get your own track composed or mix already available tracks up to suit your concert.
