Show Design and Wind Arranging for Marching Ensembles

Abstract Details

2014, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, Music.
The purpose this study is to illustrate current trends in show design and wind arranging within the marching band and drum corps activity. Through a comprehensive review of literature a need for further study on this subject was discovered. Specifically, texts from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s focused primarily on marching band arranging practices with minimal influence of show design. Since the 1980s, several documents have been written that discuss show design with some degree of detail, but have neglected to thoroughly address changes in marching band arranging. It is the aim of this thesis to discuss current trends and techniques in marching band wind arranging, and the higher level of detail placed into show conceptualization used by drum corps, competitive, and show band.
