Music Development of the Art and Performance Committee

Greetings:

I am very happy to announce the formation of the “Music Development of the Art and Performance Committee” or “MDAP”.  This committee will serve as a subcommittee of the Music Board and will receive direct oversight from Andy Trimble, Chair of the Music Board.  This Committee’s focus will be developing the art and performance of Pipers, Drummers, and Drum Sergeants through non-competitive projects and structured learning.

Since we are doing well on the competitive side of our mission, this committee will work on the non-competitive side and will have oversight over some of the branch educational activities.

Eli Fugate and Ross Naismith have been appointed Co-Chairs of this committee along with Chris Bartholomeusz, Jamie Cuthill, Paul Gibson, Mike Postma, Charlie Rosenberger and Hamish Yuile.

I am excited to see what types of projects this committee will bring to the development side of WUSPBA.  I extend a warm welcome and congratulations to the MDAP Committee.

Best,
Jeffrey M. Mann, President
