I know this isn't particularly relevant to Clarinets, but this is probably
the best place to ask such things.

Our school (in its third year), is about to go off on the large and
expensive endeavor of a marching band. Due to my prior marching experience
in an ROTC style organization, I have applied for the position of drum
major. However, like most of the applicants, my experience is limited. I
was hoping to get some input and some resources to look up.

If anyone has some good web sites of the subject of Drum Majoring, posting
them here would be most appreciated. Also, I have a couple of questions
that maybe some of you could answer from experience.

What is the responsibility of the drum major to the band director, the
members of the marching band, and the band as a whole?

What's the best quality for the Drum Major to have?

Thanks, I appreciate the time.

-Michael J. Lu
"Don't suck, blow." -Mike Snell, my band director.
