HornTeacher Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I'd LOVE to hear more Grainger, looking at corpsreps not a lot of stuff used to my surprise. An all "Lincolnshire Posy" show would be beautiful, not sure who I'd picture doing it but it'd be gorgeous. Pre 2014 I woulda said Blue Knights, love what they did with the two Grainger pieces in 2011. Working on "The Power of Rome and the Christian Heart" where I'm going to school right now, not sure how the heck it'd transfer to the field but there are some potentially massive brass moments that be killer on the field, and some very intricate writing throughout the rest of the piece. Love the overall mood of it, would provide for some very interesting source material. I very definitely could see "Lord Melbourne" as a fanfare opening. Carolina, perhaps?

Lance Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) Love seeing the suggestions for Grainger. The richness and unique orchestration of his harmonies still blows me away. This one phrase in "Dublin" from Lincolnshire Posey is one that I can listen to over and over again" https://youtu.be/RmPbIszwfWM?t=25s Edited February 6, 2016 by Lance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPK Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I would like to see move towards the darkness from the Addams family. Could make a beautiful ballad for anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornTeacher Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I'm really surprised that no corps has taken a swing at the Finale of the Brahms #2 as a closer by now (at least, according to Corpreps). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barifonium Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I feel like we should have a spotify or youtube playlist for this or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman1084 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Cathedrals by Jump Little Children https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJNkfgeN3K0 Yes, yes, yes. Phenomenal song. Come to think of it, there are a lot of artists who fall under the Baroque Pop/Indie Folk genres that could translate very well to the field, and in fact, some corps already have tried. Bluecoats with Fiona Apple, Rufus Wainwright & Bon Iver, BDB with Lana Del Rey, Blue Knights with Regina Spektor, etc. I would love to see some corps use music from Belle & Sebastian, Arcade Fire, Copeland, Iron & Wine, Tori Amos and Sufjan Stevens. All of them have plenty of source music that could translate to the field (I'm looking at you, Bloo). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
