~If the field is a battlefield, the instrument you play is your weapon~ 　Among many sports cheering, there is probably nothing more dynamic and splendid than the performance of a marching band in American football. There are marching bands of 200 to 300 people in the strong schools in the United States, which are said to be prestigious in sports. The band, who had been cheering on the trumpets and drums from the stands during the game, had a tense moment at the halftime show. Performing a wide range of music from rock to movie music, the numerous field actions that unfold on the march lead us to an exciting mood. The directors of "fighting music" supported by practice ranging from an average of 5 hours a day to late at night tell us that they will fully enjoy the charm of the march. It's not just limited to Americans who especially like marches, but even we are sure to fall in love with their powerful sound. "Everyone has their own way of fighting." Hitting your body is also a battle, and striking and blowing your instruments is also a battle. A marching band show isn't about listening to music, it's about winning the spirit of defeating your opponents with music. If there is a moment of "battle" in the world of music, it would be their performance on the field.

The introduction is full of marching band love. After reading the passionate sentences and spinning the disk again at 45 r.p.m., you can feel the passion in the performance.
