Re: Upcoming Marine Band Audition

To clarify, The enlistment cutoff is age 34. Most members decide to make a career out of the Marine Band and stay in 20 yrs and often longer.

The requirements can seem a little strange/unfair but keep in mind that these are Marine Corps wide and the band falls under that umbrella. But because our mission is so unique, many of these requirements can be waived. (age, probably not so much but if you are just over the cutoff and interested in the job, I'd email our Operations office about it, see above for email link.)

As far as the audition is concerned all the committee cares about is the level of musicianship. If there is a player they want that has a health issue or other concern the directors will do everything within their power to hire that individual. It is not unusual for a band member to have to get a waiver before enlisting.

Anyhow, good luck to those coming to the audition!

Best,

Joe
