There is no other sound like it in the world. The sounds of a Drum Corps brass line returned to the field for our Summer Series Brass and Percussion Event. Over 40 brass players joined our percussion group for a great day of fun and world class instruction. The corps welcomed guest clinician, Dr. David Earll, who joined our Brass Caption Head, Tony Godoy, and Show Coordinator, Timmy Allen in leading the corps through some technique and performance exercises.
