Indoor Marching Percussion Shows
These original compositions are designed specifically for "indoor" or "winter/spring" marching percussion competitions. They are intended to be complete shows with very specific themes and styles. All shows have been "floor tested" in WGI "A", "Open" and "World" class competitions as well as in local circuits. Below are short descriptions of each composition. All compositions are copyright protected. All titles are full length shows and competition ready.
ADVANCED SHOWS
This is the very experienced group with lots of ability. It could perhaps be a drum corps, college or very successful high school program. These groups usually have WGI/DCI/BOA/ experience and success.
INTERMEDIATE SHOWS
Most groups fall into this category. This is the drumline with some experience and ability. There is usually at least 1 percussion instructor. The ability level might vary from section to section. The group might have some winter/indoor experience.
BEGINNING SHOWS
This music is designed for the drumline with little competition experience. It could be a new program just starting out, with a large contingency of non-percussionists, or perhaps the instructor might be new to teaching. It could be a middle school, or a program taught by the band director.
