Thread: Army vs. Marines

  1. Army vs. Marines

    Greetings,

    I am trying to get into one of the divisional military bands (non-premier). What are the differences between the divisional Army and divisional Marine bands (quality of musicians, quality of band, types of literature and ensemble performances, benefits, etc.)? I've studied up on the Army bands, but I'm not as familiar with the Marine bands. Also, what would a typical daily schedule be like in a divisional Marine band?

    I appreciate the help!

    I'm hoping someone will chime in on this, because I don't have much insight that is even close to current. However, you might start by looking at these posts:

    You can also do some more searching. I would suggest using the full site search, since the forum search is pretty simple-minded. Go to the main site at dwerden.com and use the search box there.

    Good luck!
