First time poster here..... Admittedly a little nervous and apprehensive. But here we go:

 

Garfield - Something by Berstein or Holsinger

Crossmen -  Coconut Champagne 

Cavaliers - Soundtrack of Fight Club (How neat would that be?)

Vanguard - New World Symphony 

Blue Devils - Trombone Shorty (With Baritones)

Phantom - Chopin

Great choice. My favorite tune of Dvorak's is his violin concerto. Which leads me to think... corps have a surprisingly sparse history with violin concertos. I could see the soloist stuff not translating well, but some have great melodies.

Oh my goodness, though: Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto in D. The entire first movement would work well on the field, but that finale... holy smokes. Listen to the last three minutes and tell me it doesn't scream drum corps.

While we're on the topic of classical music...

Crown or Academy. Please.

You want piano music that can run on the field? Can do.

There is some great music from film composer Miklos Rozsa (1907 - 1995) some of which I don't believe anyone in DCI has ever done.

Or, if they have been done it was wayyyyyy back.  Most of his best scores were from the 1950s and 60s.

Ivanhoe, Spellbound, Thief of Bagdad, Quo Vadis, El Cid, just to name a few.
