Band's Master Class

We're finished with the master class under the direction of Dr. McCauley. We learned a lot, and despite being only a fraction of our real band, he helped us fill out our sound. Some of his main points were to have a vision about the piece, much like the composer had while writing the music, as well as making sure we have intent behind each note. He also helped us to understand the importance of awareness as an ensemble, emphasizing the difference between written dynamics and dynamics in context of the group. 

Thank you for a great class, Dr. McCauley! We learned so much and still had loads of fun.
