burgerbob Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Oh this is a novel argument! You're right! All Crown plays is B-flat major chords, right? Oh, wait, wrong. What about the A minor chord hit in the opener in 2009? Or the E-flat major suspension chord in the 2009 closer? Or F minor v chord in the Khachaturian opener in 2010? Or, the B-flat mm 7 chords in the Mahler, or the F mm 7 chords as well in the Mahler? Or what about the e-flat major hit in 2011? OR the A open-fifth chord in paint it black in 2011? Or the D minor chord that ends paint it black? Ah, you MUST be talking about the D-flat major hit in Clair de Lune in 2008! Oh, thats right! Crown isn't the only drum corps that plays B-flat major chords. How about actually knowing what chords corps play instead of assuming that because Crown often ends on B-flat major (which almost ALL drum corps do, frequently), that those are the only chords they play. Whoa! Calm down! I know my theory, I have ears. I know the keys people play in. Jesus. I realize there are many other keys in shows, there would be no way to modulate or make anything interesting otherwise. You missed a couple in your rant. I was just clarifying for previous posters about the chord they used at the end of the show for four years, the sustained Bb major (which I realize other corps do- but not the same way). You just went WAY over that dude's head. I'm sorry, but that wasn't cool. I know what I'm talking about. I know every chord tone I played in the years that I marched. I know every chord tone everyone ELSE had in the years that I marched. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't dish it out if you can't take it. And maybe I'm just a little sensitive cause I think that what Klesch and Crown do is the best there is, at least brass wise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't make any assumptions about posters you don't know, and I won't either. I won't argue- Crown sounds great and they have great music (with some exceptions). I never even alluded to that. I mentioned one (1) chord that they usually use at the end of a show. Jesus. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wompwomp Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I do hear the same chords from year to year.... just saying. Perhaps its not the sake of lets uses the same chords as last year, but perhaps its just Klesh's ( as well has the hornline's) signature chords. I often hear the same chord progressions from corps year-after-year, but it, to me, is just that arranger's or hornline's style. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted what I thought was an affirmation to an innocuous remark. Guess there's no such thing on DCP! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
