Music Dinosaurs Don't Want To Hear!


Recommended Posts

That Circus Gallop for Player Piano made me think of Nancarrow.

I could see BD doing a Nancarrow player piano study. that would be awesome.

(Which is kinda funny, since Ligeti's music is being used this summer)

Cathedral choir music is a potential ocean of music for drum corps. Essentially, a drum corps is a choir, with drums. I think there are about 200 years of choir music that is appropriate and would make for competitive shows.

Also, we've done some film scores in DCI history, but there are many good ones that remain to be performed. I've heard some people argue that the music appropriate for DCI is very finite. Well, if your imagination is finite you must be correct.

Actually, the '95 Glassmen ripped off their arrangement of Martin Luther's ancient hymn "A Mighty Fortress is Our God'' from the vocal ensemble 'Glad.' That's the only choir music I can remember in DCI.

Crown did that arrangement in 2005 as well.

Didn't know that, can't remember 2005 for some reason. Oh yeah, I was working in a weld shop all summer and didn't go to any shows.

Weird keyboard music. Really. If no one will come to a concert hall to hear it, why would anyone think a drum corps crowd would pack the stands to SEE it.

Ligeti's Six Bagatelles for wind quintet.

That would be AWESOME.
