WHY WE’RE PASSIONATE!
THE SOUND OF PERFECTION is an amazing true story. It's based on one of the most requested article reprints in the 90- year history of Reader's Digest. Against all odds, these students inspired the nation. It's the HOOSIERS / MIRACLE / REMEMBER THE TITANS of marching band movies. Beyond great entertainment, the film will be a major voice for music education, setting the stage for a planned foundation, (see below). 110 million Americans have played in a school band since 1940. We must ensure that another 110 million students have this opportunity. Music education should be a right, not a privilege.

Music departments are falling under the budget knife every day. Many schools have already cut classes permanently. We expect to create a non-profit foundation for music education. This will be a significant step to keep music alive and well in our schools. It's worth repeating that 110 million Americans have played in a school band since 1940. All of us need to ensure the next 110 million students have this opportunity.

The Film’s Goal
The goal of the film is threefold.
First, to bring this true story to television as great entertainment.
Second, to inspire many of our future musicians and keep the spotlight burning brightly on the critical need for music education.
Third, to set up a non-profit foundation that will raise funds and help stem the epidemic of school music department cuts across the country.The Film’s Design
The film is being designed to have maximum awareness by filling out roles with A-list actors who share a deep appreciation of music. And by placing iconic music artists, from across all genres, in small “character” cameos. Additionally, these artists, along with many others, will record brief testimonials sharing their personal journeys, key influences and deep support of music education.
A dozen of these testimonials will appear before the film's end credit roll. Dozens more will be added to the extended DVD release. This combination of star talent will ensure wide appeal and lift the film to event status far beyond the massive built-in audience.
