@kevinkelley3657
4 жыл бұрын
Although corps at this level can absolutely produce overtones, I think the highest tone a 2:20 is actually a super stud euphonium that is playing at least 1.5 to 2 octaves above where your ear is accustomed to hearing an euphonium play. I used to mistake these tones for overtones, and I once thought that they insanely high stuff that did not sound like a soprano had to be the Horn, but I have since discovered that an euphonium can absolutely play this high with the right set up lips behind it. I could be wrong, but go listen to some insanely high trombone, and I think it will add some perspective to your ear. I am a huge music fan, and I love all of my other music guys, please do not take my comments as rude, I do not intend them that way. Love u all(esp the Jack State Guys!).

I recently moved high schools from a really good 2A marching band with around 45 people in it, to a nearly professional 5A marching band with over 240 people in it. I had never before heard this glorious piece of music until my new band director gathered everyone in the band room to listen to the show music for the upcoming year. Needless to say, everyone was captivated by this piece. We perform this movement during half-time at a football game in a couple weeks. This is my fourth year in the front ensemble, and I already know that this is going to be one of my best years in marching band because of the comparatively huge band that I'm now a member of, and because of the tons of new things I'm learning. Wish me luck on an already fantastic season and a show to remember!

What most people don't get is that Vienna Teng (the writer of this song) was writing about the nationalist government and corporate communications algorithms that were later used to wage the 2016 Presidential election: it's about humans online who respond to it all like robots because it's how they've been programmed since they were born and they're to blind to look outside the program. A beautiful melody by a great composer... but the song's lyric is about how people who hate can be made *proud* of it by knowing them online and feeding their hatreds. Just so you know the lyrics: Somebody hears you. you know that. you know that. Somebody hears you. you know that inside. Someone is learning the colors of all your moods, to (Say just the right thing and) show that you're understood. Here you're known. Leave your life open. you don't have. you don't have. Leave your life open. you don't have to hide. Someone is gathering every crumb you drop, these (Mindless decisions and) moments you long forgot. Keep them all. Let our formulas find your soul. We'll divine your artesian source (in your mind), Marshal feed and force (our machines will) To design you a perfect love Or (better still) a perfect lust. O how glorious, glorious: a brand new need is born. Now we possess you. you'll own that. you'll own that. Now we possess you. you'll own that in time. Now we will build you an endlessly upward world, (Reach in your pocket) embrace you for all you're worth. Is that wrong? Isn't this what you want? Amen.

Please bring back these uniforms and head gear. Please!! I'm begging you and all other D.C.I. corps. Bring back the traditional uniforms and headgear. You can still advance the marching arts but do it in the signature uniforms. Please!

At that last hold at 2:23, is that colossal base foundation coming totally from the contras?! 😨 Or is that some synth too? I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if the contras could produce a sound that incredible because you know, did you hear the contra feature in the next movement?! Such an impressive horn line the Bluecoats have! My dream corp😍 It's rare you can actually distinctly hear the base loud and clear in a nothing held back hold like this from the entire corps, at least in my experience.

+Brick tator Sounded like almost pure contra to me. Might have been a little synth to back it up but mostly contras.

Yup I guess so. For real though Bluecoats do wonderful things with their contras. Other corps just leave them in the background but BC puts them in the spotlight

I know. I don't know if they have the best contras in DCI, but they do utilize them the best. it's my goal to be part of their contraline before I age out.

If they're not the best than very few corps have superior contras. More power to ya bro, do Bluecoats! I would seriously consider auditioning for the trumpets but it's just TOO much money. As much I LOVE DCI I can't justify spending a large chunk of my college tuition on it. It makes me sad that I have to choose between what I would love to do with what I need to do, not that I won't enjoy college cause I will. Going into my final year of High School marching band here in North Central Texas, aka High School Marching band headquarters( srsly did you see the results from BOA Grand Nationals last year? 5 Texas bands went and 3 made finals 2 of which are in my area that We frequently compete against. That's the best showing from any single state I believe) I'm going to cherish every moment of it.

Dude, fundraise like crazy. Set up a gofundme, get together with some people and hold a carwash or something, like, at least try it. If you don't march and you really want to, you'll regret it. And yeah, as a fellow Texan, our bands are the best. haha

You really should try watching some more Drum Corps videos and maybe even going to a live show. It's an incredible experience. As to the music choice, I am honestly amazed at the ability of these Corps to find exactly the right music. They play a lot of classical music but also some things like this or (last year) Woods by Bon Iver. I think they somehow just look through every single piece of audio on the internet!

If you know Vienna... you know that she's disgusted by this thing being adopted by military-style *anything*. This song is a triumphant fascist DIRGE in celebration of the death of human individuality, privacy and choice... and it's aim is to wake people up to the fact that the USA has been headed in that direction for way too long.
