Glad you like the music . It also features Grieg's "Morning."

I love the opening with Grieg. It's gonna be great once we put it all together on the field. Oh, and I meant to put Rossini, sorry about that. I'm trying out for drum major so I've been listening to the midi file and conducting through the first movement alot. I'm looking forward to having a great marching season.

THANKS FOR THE GREAT MUSIC!!!!!!

So do you know what movements are going to be played from Four Scottish? I love the 3rd movement (and the drunken sailor part from the 2nd). Malcolm Arnold writes fantastic music.

 

 

It's the third movement. Should be very very emotional. Also, they are playing the third movement of the Rachmoninoff.

[Trumpeter07]

So yeah it's already been said but i like to repeat the obvious:

Cedar Park High School will be doing:

 

"Fire of Eternal Glory" the music of Dmitri Schostakovich

exerpts from:

"Fire of Eternal Glory" and

"Symphony Number 10"

 

I heard the midi and it sounds amazing

[artishard]

what's the fun in knowing everyone's show ahead of time? i think it's more fun to leave it all to be a surprise until the first game, or competition.

[Fortisimo]

Heh, I'd just be happy to know our own show right now.

Yes but some of these high schools we may not even encounter during the season.

Does anyone know what these bands are doing:

 

Spring

Westfield

Duncanville

Langham Creek

 

 

Thanks!

Just to add some more about Spring and what Twomey (springbassliner26) said, I have my connections (cough cough) and I actually have our show music already for the West Side Story theme.

 

Of course, it is NOT official that this is what we're doing. Our directors are still in the development mode, and anything goes...anywho...

 

I'm not saying anything else though! You'll just have to wait for BOA...or UIL...or whatever else we're competing in. Haha.

[Aegis Fang]

So from what I've heard

 

Clemens is doing "The 47 Ronin"

-Lord Asano

-The Masterless Samurai

-Death to Kira

 

Sort of an asian music show, sound pretty sweet.

[BlinK Day 41]

Hmm we're doing Short Ride in a Fast Machine for our opener. that's all our BD has let out... but it's supposedly going to be alot deeper than our past shows, alot of people think we're gonna take PCEP this year at states i'm hopin we do . . . i mean it gets boring in MI when your band (i can't think of a modest way to say this) has no competition other than a GN Finalist whom you're pretty sure will whip you every time you see them

[FunkyFlute07]

We're playing Visions by Jair Klarfeld. its super easy..but theres a flute solo and im excited

[VRHSRangerTBone]

Vista Ridge High School (in Cedar Park) is playing music from John Rutter's "Gloria" this year. It's being arranged by Mark Higginbotham, and the drill is being written by an assistant director from Reagan who is also a visual guy for Phantom Regiment. (I apologize for not knowing his name, I'm sure many of you guys do.)

 

Back in 1989, the Cavaliers did a couple of the movements that we're doing, and they should be pretty much the same for us. Apparently Mark Higginbotham is also writing some original music for us as well. I can't wait to see the music for this show tomorrow at our music camp!

 

A lot of people from our school are fretting about how "boring" the show is going to be because it's based on a hymn, but that is most definitely not the case if you've ever heard 1989 Cavies, which most of them have not. If anyone's interested, I can send a recording to anyone who wants one.

 

We are also going to BOA San Antonio this year which I am extremely excited about. As our first year as a full high school, I think this could be our breakout year, just like Hendrickson's first full year last year. (For those who don't know, we opened in 2003 with freshmen only and have been adding a grade level each year ever since.) We have quite a bit potential this year, and I hope we can fulfill it all. Good luck to everyone this season!

[titancoaster]

All that I am going to say is watch out for us next year. Our music is extremly awsome. The Visual design has not been released. It is a very different show, but you will have to wait for BOA Arlington to find out what the show is. Muahaha!

[robs3889]

Well Bush High from fort bend will be playing an arrangement of King Kong this year including

King Kong Opening

Beautiful (Ballad)

King Kong Finale

All are arranged by Bocook who i think is pretty good at what he does so yeah cant wait for it although it is more of a brass heavy song im still excited

[MartinHorn]

Looking foward to another great show from Richland.

[thesnareguy]

We're going to play The Chicken Dance.

[Brian Ngo]

In case anyone was still looking....Langham Creek is doing Enigma Variations by Elgar

[CHS King Mello]

just some random high school band from SC, but:

 

Clover High School is doing a show called "Insomnia"

 

We're playing music from Wild Nights from Harmonium, by John Adams (ala Phantom 03.)

Sleep, by Eric Whitacre.

Without Warning, by Steve Mellilo.

If you want to check out other marching band versions of those pieces...I highly recommend....

 

Wild Nights - Plymouth Canton EP, MI 2001 or The Woodlands HS, TX 2004

Sleep - Richland HS, TX 2005

Without Warning - Irmo HS, SC 2003

 

(Btw, I hope everyone on the SC Forum is behaving. I haven't been on there since March. If anyone asks, tell them all is well and I'm not dead!)

[artishard]

insomnia actually sounds like a really cool show...maybe that's just me, but i like that idea.

Clements High from Sugarlands show next year is entitled"Heat of the Day"

 

Opens with a high octane tango version of "Bolero"...should at one point go 190 plus!

then it goes into the Malambo from Danza Final.

The closing section is Pat Methenys "Heat of the Day"

 

The show revolves around the various colors/emotions and dances that are invoked by the title of the show.

[MartinHorn]

Malambo from Danza Final from Estancia. Sounds like it's gonna be a good show.

[Trumpet Master]

Clements is going to the new region 28, if I am not mistaken, correct?

That means I know what one other band in my region is marching.

 

Good luck and welcome to Region 28 Clements HS, if you are in our region.
