CrownBariDad Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Southwind Drum & Bugle Corps is pleased to announce its show for the 2018 season, "The Guitarist." The production includes music by Arturo Sandoval, Robin Thicke, Laura Mvula with Snarky Puppy, and Arturo Márquez. "The Guitarist" follows the rising career of a street musician. The show starts with the hot licks of Arturo Márquez's "Danzón No. 2" as the Guitarist is first discovered. As he deals with his newfound fame, the show leads into an energetic and cacophonous mashup of "A Mis Abuelos" by Arturo Sandoval and Robin Thicke's "Everything I Can’t Have." The lush sounds of Snarky Puppy and Laura Mvula's "Sing to the Moon" depict an artistic period of self-doubt before the Guitarist finds his confidence again through a triumphant reprise of "Danzón No. 2." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KVG_DC Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Oh neat! Southwind's return was so great to see last year and they sounded terrific. I hope the buzz got them a bunch of interested kids who want to make this show sparkle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetiredMusTeach Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Thanks for posting this. I'm so interested to see Southwind's show this season because they were one of the most musical ensembles in Open Class last year. Really rooting for them and hope that a lot of that great horn line is returning for 2018. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke4496 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Hornline was on fire in January, and was definitely ahead of where we were in 2017! Lots of vets in ALL sections. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjyaub Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Glad to see some of this. Missed the great videos highlights they posted about last years progress. Still no sold on the show and music. Reminds me of a high school band doing a Spanish show. That is just me and what I've heard of the music on line. I'm sure I'll be proven wrong when it all comes together.
