关于我们
For nearly a half century, Drum Corps International, Marching Music’s Major League?, has been the leader in producing events for the world’s most elite and exclusive marching ensembles for student musicians and performers. Thirteen original founding member organizations formed the Drum Corps International collective in 1971 to organize and unify leadership for youth-focused competitive drum corps events throughout North America. Directors of those competing groups sought to unite their corps by providing opportunities to perform together—in the end building a foundation for future success. A non-profit entity was officially established in 1972, and today DCI supports numerous programs around the globe while sanctioning participating recognized drum corps, SoundSport? performance ensembles and DrumLine Battle? teams performing in more than 100 competitive events that make up the annual Drum Corps International Tour. With a vast reach online at DCI.org, through corporate sponsorship, annual broadcast initiatives, and outreach to high school music programs, Drum Corps International delivers the message of “excellence in performance and in life” to more than 7.2 million young people, ages 13-22 involved in the performing arts across the United States. Mission Statement: The mission of Drum Corps International is to bring the life-enriching benefits and enjoyment of marching music performing arts to more people worldwide. We do this by creating a stage for participating organizations to engage in education, competition, entertainment, and the promotion of individual growth. Vision Statement: A world in which the positive life-transforming personal and societal benefits of marching music performing arts are widely recognized and enjoyed.

“The IN STEP Fellowship is designed to expand the networks of music education professionals, including those who have been traditionally underrepresented within our ranks,” said Sue Kuehnhold, DCI senior director of ensemble services. “This program provides an opportunity for educators to gain firsthand experience with the unique attributes and best practices of the drum corps activity from the inside.” Selected participants will receive a $1,000 stipend to cover expenses as they spend a week with a participating drum corps on the road on the 2025 DCI Tour. Fellows will engage in an interactive, hands-on experience, working alongside top educators and designers to tailor their learning to their specific areas of interest. After completing a contact form, Drum Corps International staff will provide additional information and participation guidelines. The application deadline is March 15, 2025.
