JOIN THE BAND!!!
To join our ranks, send an email to our Public Relations Chairs, Sabrina Giaimo '22 and Mike Bai '24 (marchingband@cornell.edu) with your name, preferred contact method, and instrument. We always welcome new members, no matter your experience or year in school. Our Section Leaders can even help you learn a new instrument!

Hey everyone! My name is Carey, and I play the clarinet. I'm a member of the class of 2022, and I'm majoring in Biology & Society and minoring in Global Health in the College of Arts & Sciences. I'm also the Head Manager of the Big Red Marching Band this year! That means I organize all of our events, help manage the budget, and send lots (and lots) of emails. Feel free to email me at cel234@cornell.edu with any questions about the band! Now here are some important things I would like you to know about the BRMB:
- We encourage EVERYONE to audition! There is no musical or marching experience necessary. Whether you were the drum major of your high school marching band or never touched an instrument in your life, we gladly welcome you to our Big Red Family!
- The time commitment is whatever you want to make it! Once you join you are by no means obligated to come to everything. We understand Cornell provides a challenging workload, so come to rehearsals whenever you can. It’s always a fun way to destress!
- Missed the first couple of rehearsals, or the whole first semester? Don’t worry, it’s never too late to join!
- We encourage diversity and welcome anyone to join! We hope to see you soon :)
