The Penn State Drum Major is perhaps best known for the pre-game flip that was created by Drum Major/gymnast Edwin L. Anderson for the 1942 season. Unfortunately, Anderson had to leave school for the Fall semester due to appendicitis, so the Flip didn’t become a tradition until 1971. Photograph by Steve Manuel.

Horn Blower $55.00 – $395.00Select options
The trumpet is one of the oldest musical instruments. Those of us who don’t play trumpet assume that all you do is blow into it. In fact there are several techniques that can be used to get unique sounds out of the trumpet. These include growling – where the trumpeter hums while playing a note, glissando – where the trumpeter depresses the valve halfway, and double tonguing – where the player articulates using the syllables ta-ka, ta-ka, ta-ka. Which do you think this Blue Band player is doing? Photograph by Steve Manuel.
