2009 TUMB Percussion Auditions
  We are very excited to announce auditions for both the battery percussion section and the front ensemble for the upcoming 2009 marching band season. Every prospective member (non-vets and vets) of the Towson University Tiger Marching Band Percussion section must sign up for a audition. Auditions will be held on Tuesday, May 5th and Tuesday, May 12th at the Center for Music and Arts Building (room 3069 for front ensemble, room 3075 for battery). Spots in the battery and front ensemble will not be determined from this audition, however, it is meant for instructional staff to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of all incoming players. Prospective battery members will be asked to play a legatos exercise, a doublebeat exercise, a accent/tap exercise, a rolls exercise, flams, paradiddle variations, and a 30-60 second solo. They will also be asked to sightread a short piece of music. Prospective front ensemble members will be asked to play green, spacial, and a prepared piece of their choice. They will also be asked to sightread a short piece of music.
