About Dr. Gary P. Gilroy:

Dr. Gary P. Gilroy assumed the position of Associate Director of Bands and Director of the Bulldog Marching Band & Colorguard at Fresno State in 1993. Prior to this appointment he has served for a decade as Director of Bands at Fred C. Beyer High School in Modesto, California where his band was awarded several national honors, including the International Sudler Shield Award from the John Philip Sousa Foundation. Gilroy also served as faculty at CSU, Stanislaus and graduate assistant at the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon where he completed his doctorate in 1995.

As an adjudicator for Drum Corps International, Music in the Parks, Youth in the Arts, and Bands of America he has served in 39 states and throughout Canada. He has been involved as a performer or instructor/arranger for many Drum and Bugle Corps including the Santa Clara Vanguard, Valley Fever and the Concord Blue Devils. He is also in demand as a guest conductor for many honor bands throughout California.

If you'd like the benefits of an original composition but you're on a tight budget, then the following shows are the perfect formula for a phenomenal marching season. Most of these shows are:

  • Original compositions, not arrangements
  • Available immediately
  • Written with accessible parts for winds and percussion
  • Eligible for regional exclusivity (to guarantee that you're the only band in your area playing your show).

These shows are $1600.00 each (unless otherwise noted) for wind and percussion scores and parts. You may purchase the wind score and parts only for $900.00. You can reserve your location for exclusive performance rights for the upcoming season! *these recordings contain optional high trumpet parts.
