The "Music Corps Should Do" thread


Recommended Posts

An Original Suite - Gordon Jacob

Blue Lake - John Barnes Chance

Festival Prelude - Alfred Whats-his-name (sorry, it just got away from me; sucks to be me since it's one of my favorite band pieces)

Don't know much of the new stuff; I've been out of the loop for a while.

I always thought Widor's 5th Organ Toccata would be an AWESOME opener.

Watch the Blue Stars this year. The Widor is on the list.

Oops. Maybe you already knew that. :tongue:

Radiohead - "Nude" --

Agreed.

Also:

Radiohead - Sit Down. Stand Up. (at least up until the freakout point.... not sure what would happen then - drum solo?)

TV on the Radio - Young Liars

Talking Heads - The Great Curve (I actually had a dream where I was in a Crossmen rehearsal and we were playing this as a parade piece. It sounded awesome)

Reed. :tongue:

One of my faves as well.

Back in 94 the band I work with used it as our opener. Unless you really speed it up far beyond the 'true' tempo, I think that for today's corps it's rather slow, though I do love the piece.

I dont believe in "should".Play things that are interesting and have elements that spark visual and musical creativity.There"should" not be pigeon holing corps into a certain genre of music.

Just sayin' :tongue:
