School of Music, Naval Amphibious Base, Norfolk, Virginia

Description: School of Music, Naval Amphibious Base, Norfolk, Virginia - Band Chrome Postcard Dedication Ceremony, School of Music, U.S. Naval Amphibious Base, Little Creek, Norfolk, Virginia. The Naval School of Music's present home, Building 3602 aboard Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek - Fort Story in Virginia Beach, Virginia proved best suited for instrumental and academic training. Built in 1955 as an 80,000 square foot barracks, Building 3602 was stripped to bare cinder blocks and reconstructed with the unique needs of professional military musicians in mind. In April 2005, Building 3602 was renamed McDonald Hall after Capt. John D. McDonald, the Naval School of Music's first commanding officer. A typical day at the Naval School of Music begins with "morning quarters" when roll is called just before an inspection. For the remainder of the training day, each student's schedule is different, depending on their point in training. Some students may proceed immediately to a private instrumental lesson, while another is off to ear-training class, music theory, concert band, or stage band.
