Ever wanted to play tunes from your favorite video game or movie, but your band director wouldn't let you? Do you feel that people should offer you food in appreciation of your musical talents? Have you wondered what it would be like to face off against a charging horde of Clarinet players with only your instrument standing between you and glittery annihilation? Well good news, you've come to the right section!
The Low Brass section plays an extremely important role in the MOB. Not only do we provide a solid foundation for the rest of the band, in addition to a deep reservoir of manliness derived from our many luscious beards[1], but we also have accumulated a diverse collection of Low Brass specific tunes.
Former section leader and Trombone God Tim Cragin arranged, and continues to work on, a variety of pieces scored specifically for low brass. In recent years, we've also had contributions from other section leaders and Low Brass section members. Our extensive repertoire includes such works as:
Last year we won the Outstanding Section Award and next year we have an impressive number of members on MOBstaff. All in all, we're expecting an exciting, fun-filled year and we hope you'll join us.
