As a Cavaliers brass alumnus, let's just say we have a lot of say about the direction of the corps between seasons and we challenged the brass staff to come out smokin' hot from the get-go and clean the ensemble sound as the season progresses rather than the "play correctly then add the excitement later" strategy of recent seasons.  The brass recap numbers speak for themselves:  If you consistently start with CONT scores five points below Crown or the Blue Devils then no matter how high the ACHV scores go, you can't make up points in the other captions to medal. 

Interesting! The new approach is definitely paying off, it's great to see the Green Machine back in the mix!

That’s a nice comment!  We alumni also mentioned some things to the brass staff about, um, ah, “playing like men.”

Well, they sure seem to be doing exactly that!

Really interesting video released by DCI regarding the Cavaliers programming. Crazy that both Ravels Bolero and the art piece Unraveling Bolero by Anne Adams were created as both artists suffered from a brain disorder. This disorder rewires the brain to think creatively and out of the box before eventually killing you. Hence the title “On Creativity and Madness.” 

Definitely worth watching. Gives you further appreciation for the depth these show designers go into when creating a product.

***if anyone knows how to attach the video it would be appreciated

Just saw the show. Holy ****!!!! Soooo good. Even after one week the improvements are present. Can’t wait to watch this show develop and clean. My favorite since 2010. I may have even teared up a little. Great Job!
