I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to serve as a camp assistant for the JMU Summer Marching Band Camp. This event is a 4-day long camp where students from rising 8th graders to rising college freshmen learn a field show, music, and review the fundamental basics of marching technique, learning drill, and musical technique. I had the opportunity to work as 1 of 2 sousaphone counselors for the camp, which included leading sousaphone sectionals, observing full low brass sectionals, and observing full ensemble rehearsals. I was also able to help teach students how to reach their drill charts, teach basic marching skills, and adjust and fix drill throughout the entire ensemble while learning drill. The following video was taken during their final rehearsal the day before the performance. The show was entitled "Bohemian Rhapsody". It was a Queen Medley including songs like "We Will Rock You", "Fat-Bottomed Girls", and "Bohemian Rhapsody".
