Just came across this piece as a Trumpet version. The original vocal recording is so heartfelt. This would be a great ballad. "Caruso" Andrea Giuffredi trumpet And the origianl Lucio Dalla - Caruso (original) with english Lyrics

Stop: Useless and non-value added body movements Start: Moving while playing and playing more Change: the idea that this is somehow the same as an off Broadway theatrical production

No issues until Cavies. Then started getting the error below. Hit menu button, choose high cam or multi-cam option and it was right back.

We did a Beatles show in my second year at UNM under Glen Adsit. Got to meet Michael Cesario that year too. It was a good show. Great charts. But it wasn't Drum Corps worthy at any level, lol!

So a Beatles show then?

Ok, so literally ANYTHING by Kevin McKee. What a cool young composer. Vuelta del Fuego just screams Scouts return to Hot Latin fun. Composed from brass ensembles, this guy should be a arranger / composer for a Drum Corps NOW!!! I just love the sound and fun in his works.

Dürrenhorn Passage Composer - Kevin McKee I hadn't heard it until today, but I think this Trumpet Ensemble piece would be great. About the piece: Dürrenhorn Passage was commissioned by Dr. James Zingara and Troy University trumpet ensemble. The work was premiered at the 2009 ITG Conference in Harrisburg, PA. The piece depicts flight through an epic alpine landscape.

A Call To Arms - 30 Second To Mars

Extremely valid point! Well played sir.

For sure. That is why I asked. I would LOVE to hear it. But, like you said, I am not a judge. I couldn't work out how you would make that music work in the current era. I couldn't conceive of props or costumes/uniforms or any of it.

Thanks Stu

If this is a duplicate thread, Mods, please delete. Based on the FloMarching's SCV camp video and "First note of the 2019 Show" as well it being the 30th Anniversary of the winning 1989 Phantom of the Opera show, I speculate that this will be a Phantom reboot / nostalgia/ modernized show. As an aside, I hope they do it well, as I trust they would, and do a hot a hatchet job like Cavies did to Planets, or PR did to New World last year. Is there a place in modern DCI for nostalgia shows? Are we seeing an influx of them? Do we care? As an old guy, I love it and I hope it is happening. I would love to see Phantom of the Opera, Drum Corps Fans Dream-Pt.3, Shostakovitch from PR, etc. Maybe that is a different thread.

@Jeff Ream Can you please stop applying logic to forum arguments? Its so confusing.😂
