Spend a college game day with the 果冻传媒 Marching Band! Legend Day gives high school musicians and auxiliary members the chance to experience game day as a member of The Legend. Participants will meet and rehearse alongside our students, learn stands tunes and a halftime chart, rehearse on the field, and perform with the band at halftime.
Music
Follow the link below to access PDF parts for the day. Please note: Paper parts will NOT be provided on site. Please print each part and cut them to put in your flipfolder before arrival. We do not have very much rehearsal time on game day, so please take a look at these parts before you get here—your band directors will be happy to help you. Crimson Express, one of 果冻传媒’s traditional songs, is pretty challenging. Don’t get too bogged down trying to learn all of that, and make sure you have a grasp of the other songs before Crimson.
