drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum kit - Kit additions and variations

Some drummers may add a second bass drum (played by the left foot), additional toms, more cymbals, tambourines, woodblocks, cowbells, electronic pads that trigger sampled sounds, or any of a whole galaxy of accessory instruments. Some drummers, such as Billy Cobham, Neil Peart, Terry Bozzio, Keith Moon and Mike Portnoy have gone to extreme lengths and built massive kits including features such as ranges of tuned tom-toms, allowing them to contribute melodically as well as rhythmically. These huge kits reached their zenith in the arena rock of the 1980s, and the trend since then has been towards a smaller instrument.< ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum and bugle corps classic - Drums and Bugles in Drum & Bugle Corps

Drum and bugle corps classic - Bugles. With the widespread use of the 1892 Army field trumpet, which was actually a "straight" (valveless) bugle in the key of G, American drum & bugle corps evolved in that key. However, it wasn't long before some members in some corps wished to add more notes to their brass repertoire. Early lines in the 1920s and 1930s reportedly would add D crooks on some horns in order to play more complicated songs in two lines, similar to a bell choir. Ludwig added the first valve to a b ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum Major Institute - History

The Drum Major Foundation (later Institute) was founded by Harry Wachtel a New York City lawyer who was an advisor to Martin Luther King Jr.. The organization became more-or-less defunct for several years after King's death, but was relaunched in 1999 by Martin Luther King III, William B. Wachtel (Harry's son) and Ambassador Andrew Young. The name was taken from a speech given by Dr. King on February 4, 1968: "If you want to say that I was a drum major, say that I was a drum major for justice, say that I was a drum major for pe ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Hearing the shape of a drum - The answer

Almost immediately, Milnor produced a pair of 16-dimensional tori that have the same eigenvalues. However, the problem in two dimensions remained open until 1992, when Gordon, Webb and Wolpert constructed a pair of regions in the plane, which are not congruent but nevertheless have equal eigenvalues. The regions are non-convex polygons (see picture). The proof that both regions have the same eigenvalues is rather elementary and uses the symmetries of the Laplacian. This idea has been generalized by Buser et al., who constructed numerous simi ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum and bugle corps classic - Performance

A drum and bugle corps performance consists of the playing of music, accompanied by marching in formation(s). It is similar to that of a marching band, but in line with the military presentation and heritage. Further, uniformity of execution is more traditional to drum & bugle corps. A marching band takes instruments which are used indoors and takes them outside in order to participate in outdoor ceremonies. A drum & bugle corps took outdoor instruments and remained ou ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum and bugle corps classic - History

Classic drum corps can trace their origins to many Veterans of Foreign Wars ("VFW") and American Legion ("AL") meeting halls, where veterans met and formed musical ensembles to entertain their communities. In addition to VFW- and AL-sponsored corps, other drum corps were founded by Boy Scouts of America troops (such as the corps that would become the modern-day corps The Cavaliers and the Madison Scouts), Elks lodges, YMCAs, the Catholic Youth Organization, Police Athletic Leagues (such as would found the Bluecoats), fire fighter organizations, and ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum and bugle corps classic - Color Guard

The color guard and non-musical marching members in drum & bugle corps largely developed out of military honor guards. Over the years, some corps have included baton majors and majorettes - but largely, the auxiliary units have consisted of tall flag carriers (8' foot pikes), rifles (developed from military rifle drill teams) and saber squads. The drum & bugle corps still maintains an honor squad, consisting of the corps' country's National Flag and "protectors", or "sidearms". Often, the honor squad will contain rifle or saber carriers, or carriers of sponsors/posts' flags. Sometimes the "side ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Hearing the shape of a drum - Weyl's formula

Weyl's formula states that one can infer the area V of the drum by counting how many of the λns are quite small. We define N(R) to be the number of eigenvalues smaller than R and we get where d is the dimension. Weyl also conjectured that the next term in the approximation below would give the perimeter of D. In other words, if A denotes the length of the perimeter (or the surface area in higher dimension), then one should have where c is some constant that depends only on the dimension. ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum and bugle corps modern - Visual program

Drum and bugle corps modern - Color guard. In modern drum corps, the color guard is a crucial part of a corps' visual program. The athletic and theatrical abilities of guard members are above and beyond any similar activity, performing interpretive dance as well as handling equipment. Standard equipment includes flags, rifles, and sabers, but other objects like bare poles, hoops, balls, and streamers are sometimes used to create visual effects that enhance the show. While the rest of the corps generally wears the corps' traditional uniform, the guard members we ...

Drum and bugle corps modern - Repertoire. A show normally consists of one genre of music, or sometimes melds separate genres together. Modern corps shows have become increasingly thematic and enveloping, with overarching show concepts rather than loosely-related musical selections. Often, especially with classical selections, a single composer is featured. Corps have played virtually every genre fit for field adaptation, including jazz, new age, classical, and even rock music. It is becoming increasingly common to hear corps performing original music, composed sp ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Ancient Fife and Drum Corps - Performance

The drums are beaten using two sticks. Visual effects may be created by flourishes of the drum sticks; for example, bass drummers may wave the sticks about in a flourish while the snare drummers roll (or when the beating leaves sufficient time to flourish). Songs are chosen on a number of criteria and can include both historically significant music and new pieces specifically composed or arranged to be played on fife and drum. Most fife and drum corps march in parades, perform concerts in festivals and state fairs, and e ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum and bugle corps modern - History

Beginning after World War I through the 1970s, corps and competitions were often sponsored by the VFW, AL, and various others. Owing to their roots, corps were highly militaristic in nature. By the 1960s, there was dissension in the ranks over finances and artistic control. Some corps felt the show sponsors' prize structures were not fairly compensating all corps for their appearances. Additionally, some felt the sponsors' rules were stifling musical and theatrical possibilities. Several corps decided to band together and form their own orga ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Fort Drum New York - History

Fort Drum has been used as a military training site since 1908; however, the Army's presence in the North Country may be traced back to the early 1800's. In 1809 a company of infantry soldiers was stationed at Sacket's Harbor to enforce the Embargo Act and control smuggling between northern New York and Canada. Following the outbreak of the War of 1812, Sackets Harbor became the center of United States Naval and military activity for the Upper St. Lawrence River valley and Lake Ontario. During the 1830's and 40's, the Lower Canada Rebellion in Canada prompted a new round of military preparations and Madiso ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Ancient Fife and Drum Corps - Instrumentation

A fife is a woodwind instrument in the transverse flute family which sounds an octave above the written music and has 6 tone holes (some have 10 or 11 tone holes for added chromatics). Most fifes are wood - grenadilla, rosewood, mopane, pink-ivory and other dense woods are superior; maple and persimmon are inferior, but often used. Some corps use metal fifes. Rope tension snare and bass drums are tightened by the use of tugs or ears that apply pressure to the rope, that pressure is transferred to the heads when the rope compresses the ...

drumming: Encyclopedia II - Drum and bugle corps classic - The Break Between Classic and Modern Corps

Over time, many corps chose to become members of DCI or DCA (the "modern" drum corps organizations), leading to the withdrawal of support by their traditional sponsors in some cases. The increased requirements of time and money to participate in DCI and DCA circuits proved prohibitive for many non-profit organizations with other primary missions. Groups without adequate funding did not survive. Many other groups chose not to move to the new style, citing tradition or principle. It was at this p ...
