Summer Symposium and Director Academy Registration

DeMoulin Director Academy

We are very pleased to be able to offer a unique educational opportunity for middle school and high school band directors this summer for FREE! Yes, thanks to the DeMoulin Brothers Uniform Company we are excited to return to an in-person Summer Symposium that will be FREE to all directors.

We have been able to secure some of the finest instrumental music education professionals from around the country that we are positive you will be amazed and inspired by! Admission is FREE, but we do ask that you register for this incredible experience.

Thank you to DeMoulin and this fabulous panel of clinicians for helping to continue music education in such a phenomenal way!

Student Tracks

With so many things in doubt these days, one thing is for certain, we all are excited to get back to Summer Symposium!  We are happy to bring in world class clinicians, that will provide interactive and education sessions. Just sign up for your preferred track:

Drum Major Track: A generalized leadership track with a concentration in conducting. This prepares students to go back to their band programs with refined skills and a broader understanding of strong leadership.
Wind Track: Individualized approach to leadership, music, and visual technique, with opportunities to play and work with the Artist in Residence, Carolina Crown Drum & Bugle Corps. 
Battery Percussion Track: Expands and supports the technique of percussionists in a way that focuses on individual playing, as well as group work.
Front Ensemble Track: Working with some of the best clinicians in the activity, the front ensemble explores their ability to create and how they approach their instruments while including audio technique elements. 
Color Guard Track: Rifle, weapon, and dance focused instruction to define technique and leadership within the color guard space.

To keep that bit of magic that Symposium has, Jessica Davis will be BACK as well as the SLEADERS (student leaders) for each track that will include leadership and team building sessions for everyone involved.

The Summer Symposium will be a great experience for you and provide positive experiences that will make a meaningful impact on you.
