Band Camp 2017



Although the 2017 Marching Mustangs have already collectively rehearsed for more than 50 hours this summer, Band Camp 2017 is still recognized as the official "start" to the season.

Band Camp is an immersive, secluded, focused time to learn the visual and sonic elements that comprise a field production.  Visual elements and musical elements are worked on separately, then, they are coordinated during ensemble rehearsals.  The intensive week of rehearsals provides the students an opportunity to go deeper into artistic community through engaging in the rehearsal process.  The 125+ member ensemble is preparing their show themed around the word "Fly On," with the music and movement certain to be well received in all venues during the fall performance season.

This Friday, August 11, 2017, the Marching Mustangs will perform a culminating show from band camp.  The performance will take place in the stadium sometime between 6:45-7:15 PM.  The public is cordially invited to attend the performance and see the artistic progress of the Marching Mustangs as a result of their work during Band Camp!
