Kingston Grenadiers Announce 2008 Production


Recommended Posts

The Kingston Grenadiers announce their return to competition for the 2008 season! Under the direction of long-time executive director: Don Dean, the 2008 season kicks off the re-activation of the competitive corps, and the beginning of the celebration for the upcoming landmark in Grenadier history, as the corps celebrates their 50th Anniversary in the spring of 2009! Driven by a large group of dedicated veteran membership and support from the board of directors, the Grenadiers are pleased to bring “team yellow” back to the field and invite you to sit back and enjoy the proud traditions of excellence and entertainment that made them a crowd favourite in the years past.

The Grenadiers will present their 2008 production entitled “Latido de Corazon”, making reference to the “Heartbeat” of the corps that continues to live on! The show features some crowd-pleasing latin-jazz selections from their past including Bill Holman’s fiery piece: “Malaga”, and Chuck Mangione’s: “Echano”, and is rounded out with an emotional arrangement of Leonard Bernstein’s “One Hand-One Heart” from West Side Story.

Musical arrangements for the 2008 production are provided by veteran Grenadier designers: Paul McGarr, Scott Atkins and Dave Simpson. The Visual Caption Head is Randy Billings and Colour Guard instruction by Jenn Hartnett-Orser and Denise Sullivan.
