SFA Lumberjack Drumline
The SFA Lumberjack Drumline is the driving force behind the 240-member Lumberjack Marching Band. This thirty-member group is composed of percussion majors, other music majors and non-music majors from across campus. The drumline performs corps style music and arrangements at the highest level for multiple half-time performances, as well as demonstrating excellence in military-style performance for the traditional pre-game show. The drumline is composed of a full battery with 5-8 snares, 3-5 tenors, 5-7 bass drums, a marchiing cymbal line and a large pit/front ensemble.
Auditions for the SFA Drumline are held each Fall at the beginning of band camp. Students should be prepared to demonstrate technical and musical proficiancies on the instrument of their choice, but at the same time be open to, and prepared for, performing on a secondary instrument. Exercises and audition music are available during the summer months prior to band camp and sight-reading is always a major portion of the audition process.
Drumline Camp: August 10-12, 2007
