Shamrocker Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Come, be a part of ALLIANCE 2011! You are invited to attend our next rehearsal this coming weekend, May 21st and 22nd. During the weekend, the corps will continue to learn drill, so all new interested individuals are encouraged to attend. We are looking primarily for a few more members to complete our hornline and color guard. There is at least 1 spot open in each section, so don't miss your opportunity to be part of the finest corps in our history! Saturday, May 21st, 9am-9pm: Full Corps Sunday, May 22nd, 9am-5pm: Full Corps Rehearsal location will be the stadium field at the Milton Center/Independence High School at 86 School Drive in Alpharetta, GA. ALLIANCE Drum & Bugle Corps is excited to announce our 2011 production, INFERNO. Keeping true to the corps’ energetic persona, ALLIANCE will explore multiple facets of ‘the flame’ and its role in the journey of life. Using source material from classical, wind ensemble, and pop music, brass arranger Ryan George will rework many recognizable themes and melodies and present them “ALLIANCE-style”. Percussion arrangers Alan Sears and Larry Summerlin are returning to provide ALLIANCE with another aggressive, innovative battery book and a complementary front ensemble arrangement. Drill designer Stephen Hendricks and the corps’ newly acquired color guard caption head, Ashley Jackson, will develop a visual package to portray this fiery show on the football field. We hope audiences will be excited and intrigued by INFERNO and will help us “Fan the Flames” in 2011. Selections include: Infernal Dance by Igor Stravinsky Fire of Eternal Glory by Dimitri Shostakovich The Inferno by Robert W. Smith Firebird Finale by Igor Stravinsky If interested, please send an email to recruiting@alliancedrumcorps.org, and include details such as your name, contact information, desired section and previous experience.

BOSMarcher Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Great music book i wish you guys a great season . I agree. I am curious to see their take on these pieces. Has any other groups done Fire of Eternal Glory since 93 Phantom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friceox Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 According to corpsreps.com, the Bucs did it in 2004. MCL was slated to play it this year as well. When I marched Phantom in 2002, we played it as a concert tune. Not sure if we used the 93 brass score or not. The percussion was definately different. I personally can't wait to hear their take on it. I think it's one of Shostakovich's greatest works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
