It is meant to be an all-encompassing guide for pit members and educators of all experience levels.Jim Casella and Jim Ancona have instructed and arranged for some of drum corps' most musical and innovative percussion ensembles.

    The condition of the item was brand new, exactly as described and as it appeared in the picture. The price was great for a CD still in the shrink wrapping. Shipping was lightning fast and the CD was very well packed and secured. Very happy with the purchase from this seller!
