You speak the truth.

I'm sure most of you already have your DCPI Season X show designs already figured out, but if not: have no fear! I have an extremely large classical CD collection (roughly 500+) and a pretty expansive knowledge of late 19th and 20th Century classical music. I have created over two dozen shows that I have released for public use and several more "private" custom-use shows. I am available to create a fantasy show concept for you (free of charge). PM me for details. Here's some examples of my concepts. All of these show concepts can be used by anyone at any time. ***PUBLIC DOMAIN RELEASED******************** A CIDADE MARAVILHOSA (Music of Rio) -- Aguas de Marco (Antonio Carlos Jobim) -- Tico Tico (Zequinha Abreu) -- The Wheat Dance from "Estancia" (Alberto Ginastera) -- Dansa brasileira (Camargo Mozart Guarnieri) -- Batuque (Oscar Lorenzo Fernandez) DAMSELS IN DISTRESS -- The Lilac Fairy from "Sleeping Beauty" (Piotr Tchaikovsky) -- Overture from "Prince Csongor and the Kobolds" (Leo Weiner) -- Panorama from "Sleeping Beauty" (Piotr Tchaikovsky) -- Czardas from "Swan Lake" (Piotr Tchaikovsky) EXHIBITION AT THE GLASS PALACE -- Promenade from "Pictures at an Exhibition" (Modest Mussorgsky) -- La baigneuse de Trouville from "Le Maries de la Tour Eiffel" (Francis Poulenc) -- Symphony No. 1 (Samuel Barber) -- Dances from "Fancy Free" (Leonard Bernstein) FRAUGHT WITH DESIRE -- The Miraculous Mandarin - Intro (Bela Bartok) -- Variation of Aegina and Bacchanalia (Aram Khachaturian) -- Supplications of the Firebird (Igor Stravinsky) -- Magic Carillon (Igor Stravinsky) -- The Miraculous Mandarin - Middle (Bela Bartok) -- La Valse - Finale (Maurice Ravel) HEART OF DARKNESS -- Incident at Isla Nublar from "Jurassic Park" (John Williams) -- Hippo Attack from "Congo" (Jerry Goldsmith) -- Kahega from "Congo" (Jerry Goldsmith) -- Gates of Zinj from "Congo" (Jerry Goldsmith) -- Amy's Nightmare from "Congo" (Jerry Goldsmith) LET FREEDOM RING -- Fanfare for the Signal Corps (Howard Hanson) -- American Centennial March (Richard Wagner) -- America the Beautiful (Samuel Ward) -- Stars and Stripes Forever (John Phillip Sousa) -- Flag of Stars (Gordon Jacob) THE LONG WAY HOME (music of Sergei Rachmaninoff) I.

Heh, I thought I put proper attribution in the message. Well, it's on the webpage, at any rate.

Introducing, from Newport Coast, CA... GLORY OF EDEN DCPI Division II Season X Program: PARADISE FOUND Music from Scott Boerma's "Bora Bora Suite" I. Otemanu (Tombstone Mountain) II. Moana (Lagoon) III. Nuna’a (The People) Program Description: Before there were mega-resorts and eco-tourism, Polynesian empires both compact and vast reigned across the Pacific Ocean. Amidst the turqoise lagoons and languid palm trees for which the region has become so famous in today's world, the Tahitian isle of Bora Bora was inhabited by the Maohi. Oral history recounts the adventures of gods and warriors in colorful legends where javelin throwing was the sport of the gods, surfing was restricted to royalty, and the most powerful warriors competed in canoe races and stone lifting as a show of pure strength. Join us on a trip to the South Pacific of the 18th Century.

Introducing, from Newport Coast, CA... GLORY OF POLARIS DCPI Division I Season X Program: DICHOTOMY: GOOD VS. EVIL I. Hagen’s Call to His Clan from “Gotterdammerung” by Richard Wagner II. Sinbad Battles Kali from “The Golden Voyage of Sinbad” by Miklos Rosza III. Gnossienne No. 4 by Erik Satie IV. Thalaba’s Fatal Languor / Ecstasy of Faith and Love from “Thalaba the Destroyer” by Granville Bantock Program Description: The Heroes: those strapping figures of history and mythology raising arms against injustice and in protection of the innocents and the helpless. The Villains: the dark, shadowy, ominous beings of advanced intelligence, their plots and machinations causing wide-spread death and destruction all in the name of personal gain (or, alternately, for no reason whatsoever). Or so we are led to believe. Are all heroes wholly good? Are all villains pure evil? How many heroes have sacrificed everything (love, family, money and health) in the pursuit of a noble cause? How many heroes have crossed the line in their overzealous quests for justice and vengeance and become villains themselves? How many villains have performed evil deeds for noble motives? One society's heroes are another society's villains. And what use would there be for heroes without villains for them to oppose? Conjoined, intertwined, indivisible, two sides of the same coin, the ultimate dichotomy: good versus evil.
