JhnWstbrk Posted September 19, 2023 Posted September 19, 2023 I've been a part of the marching band world for 8 years, and as a senior in college, my time is sadly coming to an end. I am not a music major or anything close, but I would like to somehow stay a part of this world after graduating college. I was wondering if this forum might help with some ideas of what opportunities there might be to retain a full-time job and still be involved. I'm thinking of possible volunteer opportunities and working for free, but I can't see any large HS programs willing to take in a non-music major for their staff. Any encouragement or ideas would be appreciated! LeanderMomma 1 Quote
vincentlee1220 Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 If you're brass/percussion/guard, you can see if there's a DCA corps near you (or learn one of the aforementioned instruments if you're a woodwind). Otherwise, I'm not sure there's anything else besides convincing a school to take you on as staff. Some positions might not need a music degree -- I know an old classmate of mine was the cymbal tech at vista ridge for a quite a bit after she graduated. Quote
