Bookroo's summary

After leaving her high-pressure Tokyo school, Mizuki moves to small-town Akita to live with her aunt and start over. She has never played an instrument or marched in step, and she has always put studying first. When a grumpy trumpet player introduces her to the school's ultra-competitive marching band, Mizuki takes a leap that could help her find friends, and herself. A full-color manga.

From the publisher

A new student dreams big and finds inspiration and friendship when she joins the ultra-competitive high school marching band in this full-color manga for fans of The Tryout and Brass & Sass.Mizuki has never played a musical instrument. She’s never marched in time with a group (it’s harder than it looks!). And she’s never spent time on school activities when she could be studying. But after leaving behind her high-stress high school in Tokyo and moving to small-town Akita with her aunt, she’s looking for a fresh start. And when she crosses paths with Akira, a cute-but-grumpy trumpet player who introduces her to their school marching band, this may be just the chance she needs to take a leap and find herself.
