WHAT IS DRUM CORPS?
Drum Corps is a high-energy sport of the arts for performers (Brass, Percussion, and Color Guard) age 15-22 who want to push harder than ever, and perform for passionate fans! First time viewers note its similarity to competitive marching band, but at a much higher difficulty level. The average day for a drum corps is to wake up on a gym floor (with a nice, comfy air mattress or sleeping pad), eat breakfast, stretch, work out, and rehearse until lunch, rehearse again until dinner, and unless there’s a performance or travel, rehearse some more until the end of the day, punctuated by a snack, a shower, and a strict lights out for a good night’s sleep. That process repeats every day until the show (a musical and visual showcase of skill and artistry) is ready for competition!
WHY Should I audition for Zephyrus?
First of all, we’re here to have fun. Performing in a drum corps should not be a thankless, grueling battle. When you step on the field to perform, our only goal is that you have the time of your life. That means an exciting show, friendly staff, helpful critique, and a corps-wide support system to bring each member to their highest potential.
