DCISuperfan Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 This might seem like a dumb nooby question, but I am curious. What would happen if two corps picked some of the same music to get arranged and put into their shows? With staff members of corps collaborating on 2011 programs right now, its not fully released to everyone what they will be doing until spring, what would happen if they found out another corps picked the exact same piece(s)? Has this happened before? Or does DCI ask staff what they are planning on so this never happens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think '78 or '79 there were a handful of corps all playing "Children of Sanchez", and '87 or '88 there was a Carmina Burana fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Ream Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 it's happened a few times. no big thing, each corps does it's best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCISuperfan Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Thats cool, I didnt know that it had ever happened before. Because of the chance of picking selections that another corps might pick, do you think staff will go to more obscure music to avoid conflicts?

Jeff Ream Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 i doubt it. a lot of times a certain gets hot...it's new, a band did it that people loved, and it happens. didnt 2 corps play asphalt cocktail last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 According to the great corpsreps site... 5 Echano's in 76 8 Children of Sanchez in 79 Not all World Class of course...though 3 of the 8 above were DCI WC finalists in 79. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my knowledge DCI does not get involved in the programming of its member corps. Any conspiracy theorists out there? peace, Fred O. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexL Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I think 3-4 corps were doing firebird in 07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm remembering it right, BD and the Bluecoats both wanted Asphalt Cocktail, but Blu won out. As for the topic, Crown and Blue Knights both played Nimrod this past summer. I'm not 100% sure it was BK, as I never actually saw their show, but I know someone did it, I heard it in the lot a few times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
