Blue Stars 2018: “The Once and Future Carpenter”

 

i would never have imagined a drum corps show featuring so many of these songs sung by the Carpenters...I actually forgot how much I actually loved this wholesome music...then I began to cry thinking about Karen Carpenter...her early and tragic death from anorexia at such a young age...

A while back someone posted on social media a track of just her vocal part on one of the Carpenter's hits. If you listen to it with headphones, it WILL make you cry. Beautiful!!!

Depends on how well they clean the visual movement of pressing the play button on their boom box.

It's the visual equivalent of John Cage's 4'33".

• This Bitter Earth by Clive Otis

The Union high school marching band from Oklahoma last year at BOA Grand Nationals played "This Bitter Earth" as part of a show by that title. Here's video of them a few weeks earlier in the season; the title song starts at 4:16.

The Troopers have confirmed their 2018 show, still titled "The New Road West." A number of changes have been made to the repertoire:

  • OUT: "On the Road Again" and "Climb Ev'ry Mountain"
  • IN: "Toward the Splendid City" by Richard Danielpour, "Canyon Echoes" by Robert W. Smith, "Both Sides Now" by Joni Mitchell and an additional original composition by Smith
  • "Welcome to the Black Parade" will still be in the program as the opener.

I was interested to see how that initial lineup was going to work.
