  1. Preparing Your Band for a Parade

  2. Most marching band members admit that parades are difficult and preparing for them is key to success. While millions of people around the country enjoy their day off from work, thousands of the band members are working harder to perform well in the parade. Whether it’s New Year’s Day, Thanks Giving Day, or Summer Days at Disneyland, there are plenty of massive and exciting parades that feature top marching bands from all over the country. Now, the question is how to prepare your band for the upcoming season. When it comes to marching band music and shows, judgment depends on music and the accuracy of marching. So, you have to make sure that your band is well prepared before performing on the ground. Here we have some important information regarding preparation of a marching band.

  3. Make sure that the participants understand the steps well enough. Though a parade sequence don’t necessarily need the same level of choreography that a field show would, musicians should look as uniform as possible. Each and every member should understand the steps and the band should be unified in marching style and holding instruments. • Your band should maintain the appropriate look throughout the parade. So, you have to make sure that all of them look same from shoes to the tops of their heads. In order to maintain uniformity in look, ask certain member to inspect others. • Whether it’s parade or custom marching band shows, band members should be dressed for comfort instead of high level look. Their outfit shouldn’t weigh them down. • Band members should stay healthy before the parade. Members should be advised to eat healthy and exercise until the performance. They should also stay hydrated and avoid dairy products right before a parade. • Now, the final step is practice. In order to give a high level of performance, members must have to invest plenty of time in rehearsal. If you are not trying big leagues, local parade is a worthy experience for the group.
