Maestro767 Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 87 Bluecoats (Autumn Leaves) 93 Phantom Regiment (Novorissisk Chimes / Fire of Eternal Glory) 93 Cadets (Hymnsong of Philip Bliss) 94 Cavaliers (Humming Chorus from Ivan the Terrible) 95 Phantom Regiment (Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini) 98 Cavaliers (Dance Movements: Lento for the Brass) 98 Cadets (Canterbury Chorale) 99 SCV (Barber Symphony No. 1) 00 SCV (Adagio) 03 Phantom Regiment (Lord's Prayer) 05 Crown (Angel) 05 Cadets (Dancer in the Dark) 08 Bluecoats (The Boxer) Honestly, for a long time I didn't like SCV's ballad in 1999. I loved the show, but usually tuned out, or even skipped over the ballad. But over time, I enjoy it more and more. The nuances are tremendous... it was perfect for that show. Another less-talked-about ballad which deserves more credit is Cavaliers 1994. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvertrombone Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet.Phantom Regiment - '94 and '95 If I'd gone back to march my age out in 95... ...Ricky Fritzsching might not be married to Tracy today! ...I might have had a chance at Conductor...except that I don't look as good in tights as Miss Priss! ...And in lieu of the Conductor gig, I would have lusted more for that Baritone solo than anything else! Might even have agreed to lug around a Euph for the honor. Of course, there was a little incident involving 94 DCM I&E that I would have had to wipe out of some folks' minds to get the solo... Ironically, the 94 ballad was my least favorite part of the show. 93's rocked. I'll have to go with my mainstay shows of all time...91 and 06 Phantom Regiment. Biased, I know. But opera? How cool. And no soprano Baritone/hornline...luscious!! Ave Maria...indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Godzilla! Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 A ballad that never gets any credit: Blue Knights 2006. Best ballad on the field that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deltabass Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Funny, a lot of people are mentioning 05 Cadets, but not 02 Bluecoats, which was the same piece. I guess a 99.15 will do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
