  Drum Corps International :: Marching Music's Major League™
As a youth activity, the world of competitive drum and bugle corps is an intense, choreographed musical experience staged on football stadium fields by students achieving high levels of excellence in performance.
Organized into four competitive divisions, each drum corps is unique in how its management, educational staff and members approach the drum corps experience.
In this division, corps are allowed to follow their own country’s organizational guidelines, but if they choose to recognize DCI rules, they are allowed to compete for the other division titles.

 Drum and bugle corps (modern) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
However, non-competitive classic-style corps (often and sometimes inaccurately known as "alumni corps") saw a renaissance beginning in the mid-1980s, and they continue to organize in the 21st Century; members often remain vigilant about the virtues of the drum corps activity before the advent of more modern influences.
A common criticism of drum corps is that it has become too similar to marching band, although in truth the two activities have evolved together over the years.
The top-tier competitive drum corps shows are often more complex and more professional than in marching bands, as members in full-time touring corps have no distractions outside of corps during the season and membership is attained through highly competitive auditions.
