Download or read book Factors that Influence Second-year Participation in a University Marching Band written by Timothy Allen Heath and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Retention rates for college marching band participation show a considerable number of students choose to drop out every year, with a range of 17.6 % attrition at smaller universities and 42% in larger Division 1 Programs (“A recent series of studies”, 2014; Townsend, 2004). Unfortunately, most students leave after only participating for one year (Patzig, 1983; Fuller, 1995; Townsend, 2004) suggesting the transition from first to second year membership is especially consequential to the goal of improving retention. In this study, the University of Alabama's Million Dollar Band (MDB) was examined. The MDB is widely known regionally and arguably throughout the United States for its close involvement to its storied football program and for excellence in music performances across many decades. Unfortunately, at the time of this study, the first-year member retention rate for the MDB was only 66.4. To determine those factors that may improve retention, all first-year members of the MDB (N=144) in 2015 were invited to complete a survey two months before registering for fall 2017 classes. Participants' (n=78, 54.2%) provided basic demographic information (e.g., gender information, in-state/out-of-state status, instrument, degree/major, scholarship information), current participation in other band ensembles (e.g., pep band, concert band), and indicated their intention to re-audition for the MDB. The questionnaire included 22 items: evaluating each factor with a 5-point Likert-scale: (1) not influential, (2) somewhat not influential, (3) undecided, (4) somewhat influential, and (5) influential. Participants were also asked to share three items they enjoyed the most and least during the marching band season; these were read by independent evaluators and themes were identified. Additional questions asked whether first-year members would recommend joining the MDB to their peers and whether they agreed to participate in a concert band during the spring 2016 semester to “guarantee membership” and thereby avoid having to re-audition for the 2016 MDB. Participants' responses were classified into four factors that influenced their intended decision to return for a second year: time requirements, degree responsibilities, performance enjoyment and financial opportunities. Common ideas emerging from participants' open-ended responses to items enjoyed were social, travel, performance, pride, and game day, while items they did not enjoy were time-commitments, number of rehearsals, external factors, leadership, and musical selections. Recommendations for future research and implications for college marching bands were addressed.

Download or read book THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH written by Lenard C. Bowie, DMA and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-12-20 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After terminating my tenure and positions as Trumpet Teacher, Associate Director of Bands and Chairman of Instrumental Music at Florida A&M University in 1980, I was bombarded with questions and often criticized on the wisdom of abandoning the pathway I had earned as heir apparent to the position of Director of Bands. Rumors were also whispered that I was fired for involvement in questionable and unprofessional faculty-student relationships. I deliberately hesitated to answer such questions, first, because they could possibly be interpreted as my being critical of the people and the program that made it possible for me to develop whatever God given talents I possessed. Second, I chose to quietly accept said criticisms and dismiss the rumors to avoid giving them credibility by commenting on them one way or the other. However, I have always felt an obligation to provide the truth to the friends, colleagues, and fans that assisted in the realization of my professional pursuits at FAMU. These questions and inquiries gradually subsided after my appointment as Chairman of Fine Arts at the University of North Florida four years later. Thirty one years later, the disturbing news from Orlando, Florida, announcing the death of Robert Champion, a FAMU Drum Major, renewed the urgency for me to address long standing and new questions on various aspects about FAMU’s band. The untimely death of Champion resulted, allegedly, from a brutal “ritual of acceptance” hazing, on the occasion of the 2011 Orange Blossom Classic football game between the Florida A&M and Bethune Cookman Universities. Regrettably many supporters, fans and former band members, including myself, had long feared such an occurrence would happen sooner or later. I was similarly harassed as a freshman during the 1958 band season following the Orange Blossom Classic held in Miami. In spite of my negative treatment, I went on to become Band President and, after graduating, Associate Director of this esteemed organization. Therefore, I feel intimately familiar with the band and its history, including the unsanctioned tradition of hazing, and feel competent to voice my opinions on the question of hazing and on the current and future status of the FAMU band program. Following the death of Mr. Champion, I again began receiving renewed calls, visits, and e-mails, inquiring of my thinking and position on the situation at hand. After Dr. Julian White, Director of Bands, was unceremoniously terminated, over 150 former students encouraged me to seek the position of Director. Obviously, those encouraging me to do so, did not factor in my advancing age or health status. Nonetheless, these renewed questions awakened the need and obligation for me to speak out and weigh- in on long standing issues about the band and my reasons for abandoning it. Accordingly, the crisis of Mr. Champion’s death has created a renewed sense of urgency for me to finally speak out and describe how such issues led to my departure from the FAMU Marching Band. It is hoped that this booklet will provide truthful answers to long standing questions and serve to explore a plethora of traditions and misconceptions about the band. This writing is a recollection of my personal journey as a student participant and eventual Associate Director of this Band. The reader is therefore afforded to share the author’s perspective, insight and self-discovery during this time frame. It is hoped that this booklet will positively assist in a similar “societal-discovery” and serve as a deterrent to hazing, violence and other punitive actions that have all but become standard codes of conduct on many college and university campuses.

Excerpt: The Princeton University Band serves as the marching band and pep band of Princeton University. Like most other Ivy League bands, it is a scramble band. To members and fans, it is often known as the PUB (pronounced Pea You Bee) or simply The Band. Many alumni refer to it as the Tiger Band. Playing at University of Pennsylvania's campus. The modern Princeton University Band was established in October 1919 when a group of undergraduate musicians decided that a regular musical presence was needed at Palmer Stadium, home of Princeton's multi-time national champion football team; however, these events were in many ways merely a reorganization of the preexisting R.O.T.C. Band that had served a much smaller role on campus several years earlier, making Princeton's Band one of the oldest in the country. Some of the band traveled to perform at the Yale Bowl for the season's only away game, beginning a long tradition of the PUB attending all football games, home and away. For over a decade, the PUB performed on a tight budget, clad only in black sweaters with bow-ties and white pants; however, thanks to the contributions of many alumni supporters in 1936, the band was able to afford new instruments, music, and, most notably, new uniforms - black blazers with orange collars and a Princeton Band insignia on the breast pocket. In 1937, the PUB expanded its role at Princeton by playing not only during football...

Download or read book The Music of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach written by David Schulenberg and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2014 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the four sons of J.S. Bach who became composers, Carl Philipp Emanuel (1714-88) was the most prolific, the most original, and the most influential both during and after his lifetime. This first full-length English-language study critically surveys his output, examining not only the famous keyboard sonatas and concertos but also the songs, chamber music, and sacred works, many of which resurfaced in 1999 and have not previously been evaluated. The bookalso outlines the composer's career from his student days at Leipzig and Frankfurt (Oder) to his nearly three decades as court musician to Prussian King Frederick "the Great" and his last twenty years as cantor at Hamburg. Focusing on the composer's choices within his social and historical context, the book shows how C.P.E. Bach deliberately avoided his father's style while adopting the manner of his Berlin colleagues, derived from Italian opera. Anew perspective on the composer emerges from the demonstration that C.P.E. Bach, best known for his virtuoso keyboard works, refashioned himself as a writer of vocal music and popular chamber compositions in response to changingcultural and aesthetic trends. Supplementary texts and musical examples are included on a companion website. David Schulenberg is professor of music at Wagner College and teaches historical performance at the JuilliardSchool. He is the author of The Music of Wilhelm Friedemann Bach (University of Rochester Press, 2010).
