corpsband Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Interesting trivia: Who was the first DCI corps to bring Philip Sparke to the field? Hint: this was the piece... ANYWAY I wish more corps would play his music. So much good material going to waste. (Wonder if it's licensing fees? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop giving hints ! lol I would never have guessed the answer either but when I saw who it was I thought "of course they did". BTW be sure to click play on the Dance Mvmts vid. I cued it up well.

tesmusic Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) Academie Musciale was the first in 1989 with Celebration. It's a shame that Sparke is one of those composers that has pretty always made it difficult to get permission to arrange/perform, as well as charging an absurd amount if permission is granted. Plus, he was doing this long before the whole Tresona/copyright issues that have plagued the performing arts over the past decade.
