Registration for Indoor Music Games and SoundSport opens on Sunday
The registration for the Indoor Music Games and SoundSport 2016 series will open this Sunday, 1st November. The first season will see four events in Ireland, England, the Netherlands and Scotland.
Each show will feature two sections: the DCI SoundSport section and the Indoor Music Games section. Both formats are aimed at encouraging new or former bands/corps to form/reform and get involved in the activity, at a level that is more achievable for them at this point in time. It can also be used by groups who are going through a rebuilding process as the demands are less than that of normal marching band/drum corps competition. The season is a spring activity with events running from February until May. This allows groups that wish to go on and compete in the summer season to do so.
Groups can enter as many shows as they wish, so it's possible to enter just one show, a few shows or all the shows in the series. The show dates are Saturday 27th February (Dublin - Ireland), Saturday 19th March (Thurrock - England), 23rd April (Middelburg - the Netherlands) and 21st May (Glasgow - Scotland).
Thurrock Marching Brass are pleased to confirm that they will bringing DCI SoundSport to Essex on 19th March and will be commiting to the Indoor Music Games circuit to showcase their new Winter Theatre production. Thurrock Marching Brass Chairman, Paul Morgan comments "We are absolutely thrilled and delighted to be adding the IMG and SoundSport to our hosting portfolio which will be billed as DCI SoundSport Essex, keeping it in line with our already established DCUK Essex show during the summer period. This new winter circuit already looks to be setting the stage for new and existing groups to come along and showcase all that is good about music and performance. Something we need to be shouting about a lot more than we do to new audiences across the UK and Europe."
Registration for the Indoor Music Games and SoundSport shows is open until 28 days before the event through the DCE website which opens this Sunday. Here is a video item from the DCE webcast on the SoundSport pilot in Bristol earlier this year:
