wvu80 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 ANY drum corps show done in the last century on G bugles is fair game to be played again, by ANY corps. I love to listen (and compare) the old G bugle stuff to the young guns. These modern corps on Bb horns stack up very well playing the old classics. I've heard both, and I don't listen to old or new with any bias, since I never marched a corps. I love the modern versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euphman89 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I know it's not a program in and of itself, but I'd love to hear a new take on Barber's Adagio for Strings. LOVED SCV's 2000 rendition (minus the KRISTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA soloist in the stands) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FHdork Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 This tune...hmmm....to me, it just screams drum corps... If you get bored...skip to the 4:30 mark and listen to the end - But seriously...a classic musical selection (don't repeat drill and color guard...just the music...) - doesn't have to be performed by the same corps that made it famous. It just needs a quality treatment and conscientious attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rd Glasgow BB Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 no problems with new arrangements of old skool tunz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRacer Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Santa Clara Vanguard = Their 1985 show (Festive Overture, SCV style, is drum corps happiness!) An interesting idea if they could throw in a complete "Old Era" to "New Era" uniform change through some 21st century interpretation of the Tunnel of Doom...

losnickes Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I would kill to see a revamped "Phantom of the Opera" show from SCV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowFarCanOurBodiesGo Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I would love to see particular tunes brought back, but not entire shows. I feel like it's better as an idea than it is as an actuality. Each year for each corps has a particular identity and feel, so it would be weird to see full shows done over.
