The fife line has always set the Crimson Kings apart from other drum corps. Traditionally corps are either fife & drum or drum & bugle, but rarely are there corps that integrate all three lines as a single unit. And teaching that line is the newest addition to the Crimson Kings instructional, Charlotte Acevedo. She is a flautist attending Lehman College majoring in music with a minor in psychology. Having played the flute since the 4th grade and also skilled at the piccolo, she brings a new dimension to the Corps.

The Crimson Kings are seeking a fife instructor to teach the fife line in the heart of New York City’s Chinatown. You must have a clean record and experience teaching youth groups ages 7 to 22. You should be a patient team player with initiative. You are enthusiastic, works well with youths, and loves everything there is to love about marching and drum corps activities.
