Not sure why they are asking others to contribute if it is their own idea in the first place. Maybe they should secure funding first before trying to get the work written (a.k.a. don't spend what you don't have).

Cavaliers used some snippets in 2009 in their Great Divide show - snippets that sound similar to the movement of Grand Pianola Music they played. Unfortunately, Cavies didn't play any of the fun stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Such a great piece. It's been brought up at least 5 times in the "Music Corps Should Do" thread, including by me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouooga Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I thought de Meij wouldn't license his music for drum corps, which is why no one's played Gandalf yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd absolutely love to see someone not just use it but build a show around it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frachel Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Currently playing 3 movements of the LoTR Symphony #1. Holy double-tonguing-from-hell for all the trumpets (4 trumpet parts in this one) in Gollum. His stuff is certainly interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
