While auditions are not required for instrumentalists, they are required for visual team members and are also required for the positions of assistant conductor as well as Drum Major. While most members of the BCMB are students of Boston College, the Band also has a partner-school program. The program incorporates a wide variety of students from Boston based institutions. Prominent schools include Berklee College of Music, Emerson College, Emmanuel College, Northeastern University, Simmons College, Suffolk University, and Wentworth Institute of Technology. All Boston area college students can join the Band. The Band performs two different half-time shows a year, in the drum and bugle corps style of marching. These half-time shows, which are 6 minutes in length, usually consist of 30-40 sets. The Band also performs in the stands during the game, electrifying the fans with a wide repertoire of music. Their current halftime show arranger is composer and arranger Tim Leonelli, who was a former member of the DCI Concord Blue Devils from 2007 - 2011.
