kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 How about some critical analysis of the performances, please. Would be nice to hear your impression of the corps strengths and weaknesses. What impressed you the most, distracted you or little observations. Thanks. I did that a little more during Class A since the top three in that division was so tight. I haven't for TBT and Kilties since, for them, the point is that they're in Finals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Still weird to hear CorpsVets playing Shostakovich. Also not sure what the large scrims in the back of the field are for. I guess to depict dusk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Go CorpsVets!!!! get it, guard!!! Speaking of which, they just nailed two consecutive rifle tosses right at the front of the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Tubas are right in front of me and are very blatty. If you're going to play Shostakovitch or any classical rep, you have to be careful with your sound. You've already got a complex brass book as it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Screching metal sound in the pit. I have to admit I like those kinds of effects. Guard is all on rifles. Very dynamic work and all up front again. A couple drops, but that full line toss/catch was to die for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_VA Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 For Open Class they have the smallest front ensemble here tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Is there a hole in the tenors? They've got a giant space between them at the end of the second piece and they're right on the front side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypemeister Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I did that a little more during Class A since the top three in that division was so tight. I haven't for TBT and Kilties since, for them, the point is that they're in Finals. Yes, I saw that in your Class A comments. It added a good feel for what was actually happening on the field. Thanks for doing this though. It really helps bring those of us who couldn't make it to Rochester a little closer to the action. Kudos to you!
