Phantom Regiment 2009

The Red Violin

The 2009 production of The Red Violin continues Phantom Regiment's tradition of combining artistry, passion, and power with good old-fashioned drum corps and entertainment. From the color guard's technical prowess and dramatic flair, to the artistry and precision of the percussion, to the emotion and power of the Regiment hornline a new story emerges that will once again set the standard for outdoor theater.

Music from the show is mainly focused around the different variations on the Paganini theme. The music pieces include:

The Red Violin from the film The Red Violin, by John Corigliano

Fantasy Variations on a Theme by Paganini, by James Barnes

Paganini Variations, by Witold Lutoslawski

Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, by Sergei Rachmaninoff

Caprice XXIV Paganini, by Benny Goodman

Paganini Variations, by Philip Wilby

The story includes the trials and tribulations of romance and stardom, as we follow a young, poor musician and his new bride struggling to make ends meet. When the musician comes upon a magical red violin, his life is forever changed. We hope you enjoy the journey, as we present The Red Violin.

Let the discussion begin!!!

I really want to know what the rep is going to be. That's always more important to me then the title of the shows.

Always look forward to Regiments shows.

They have another camp at the end of the month, so hopefully more things could be announced by then?

And I can't wait to see the new uniforms!! I wonder if they already have them...

This is what I have been wondering about, I can't wait to see the new uniforms.

First full week of April and we're already starting this type of stuff up?!

Wow...

OK, I'm curious to see if Phantom will over-think this year and buckle under the pressures of being defending Champion.

u do realize that move-in is next month, right? it's closer than you seem to think.

plus it's good to have a central location to keep up with all things Regiment this season.

I'm not sure I buy the buckle-under-the-pressure line.

I will venture that this may be uncharted waters for Phantom. It's not easy having the target on your back. The design staff has remained relatively in tact and that is key. Design and staff wins championships.

My only beef with Phantom is they tend to follow up a great year, with a not so great year. See 2003-2004 or 2006-2007 for proof. IMO.

Anyone know the vets/rookies ratio this year?

I know that they had quite a few age-outs last year, but I don't know what that ratio was. I would say it's not too bad though.

I'm sure they're coping with it and not letting it make a difference.
