The Brentwood Drum Corps
is a youth marching Band. As a registered charity we are
a non-profit making organisation, our objectives, by the
use of music and military style formation marching are
to install a degree of discipline and self-confidence within
the band members in the expectation that they may become
responsible citizens.
Throughout the year the
Band participates in fetes, carnivals and competitions,
enjoying a worthy reputation wherever they perform.
Membership
is made up of boys and girls from ten years of age up
to their early twenties irrespective of colour, class
or creed.
Adult
instructors give musical tuition and instruction on formation
marching techniques.
Uniforms
and instruments are provided free of charge although,
a one off non-returnable deposit is required from each
band member to cover the cost of cleaning and/or repair
of their instrument and uniform if the band member leaves.
Our
unique style comes from the many different musical instruments
played by our band members.
Our
musical repertoire is a mixture of traditional marching
tunes and popular music. For example, Colonel Bogey,
Chattanooga Choo Choo and Titanic are just a few of the
tunes from our playlist.
