About:

Dal 2005 la banda inizio a fare i primi passi nel mondo delle Marching Band. Il repertorio musicale della Banda si è sempre differenziato da quello delle bande tradizionali, e continua ad ispirarsi alle Bande Musicali delle Scuole Americane sia nella scelta degli strumenti musicali che dei costumi.

Grazie alla particolare formazione dei suoi musicisti, che eccelgono tanto nella Parate che nei Concerti , la banda riesce, ad eseguire brani di ogni genere musicale con arrangiamenti raffinati e di grande impatto sonoro. La loro trasformazione in una Marching Band è stata raggiunta grazie ai consigli di persone esperte facenti parte delle Marching Band professioniste italiane e di oltre oceano. Un particolare ringraziamento deve essere rivolto alle sezioni di Legni, Ottoni, Percussioni e alla Color Guard che con il loro costante impegno per raggiungere l'eccellenza del suono e dei movimenti riescono a dare energia e potenza alle performance della banda

Fun Fact:

Dal 1986 ad oggi, il gruppo è stato in tournee all’estero infinite volte e ha partecipato, praticamente, a tutte le più importanti manifestazioni in Europa. Nel 2009 a Kerkrade in Olanda, la “Amaseno Marching Band” ha partecipato per la prima volta al Campionato mondiale di Marching Show Bands raggiungendo la fase finale della gara. Nella finalissima della Wamsb ha raggiunto il 9^th ° posto assoluto entrando cosi, nell’élite delle Marching Show Band Internazionale a tutti gli effetti . Questo risultato ha permesso alla Banda di entrare a far parte della categoria World Division Corps Style Class.
