Musical opportunities abound
for you at the Forge!
Your Valley Forge experience can include performing in the Regimental Band, which has
played at the White House; the Regimental Choir, which has sung in New York's Carnegie
Hall; or the Field
Music Unit, which participates
in competitions
and parades throughout the year.
The Regimental Band
has performed for U.S. presidents, royalty and countless military and
civilian events both at home and abroad. All members of the Band,
which includes the Heraldic
Fanfare Trumpets, have music
scholarships,
and all receive music theory instruction.
The Regimental Choir consists of members
selected by audition from the Corps of Cadets. Their varied repertoire of sacred, secular
and patriotic music enables this ensemble to serve as Choir for the school's Sunday Chapel
Services, as well as for numerous civic and military functions. Choir cadets are awarded
scholarships for their vocal talents.
The
Field Music Unit, a skilled unit made up of cadet volunteers, is a unique
drum and bugle ensemble. The unit maintains a busy performance schedule in parades and
competitions and allows a cadet to become part of a highly trained musical team.
