hardlyworking Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Glad it's finally official. One of my friends is in the hornline this year and he played me a few clips from camp...just based on the few snippets I've heard, I am absolutely pumped for this show!

SCTuba Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 This is textbook BD. I think this could help them win back the parts of the drum corps community who feel alienated by the direction they've taken the past few years. And with such appropriate timing. Well done BD, well done. I look forward to seeing this live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
general_tsos_chicken2 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I love the rite of spring. I'm having a hard time understanding how they will be programming it. If they stick pretty close to the source material i know I will like this a lot. But part of the write up sounds like they are going for that same type of reaction that the rite of spring received at it's premier (which lets be honest, they pretty much accomplish that every year) and going a bit outlandish... if it's that then... ugh.. we shall see!

corpsband Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) Scroll down this page (roh.org) to the fourth pic and page through the ROS images. Think we might see that look? Edited March 20, 2013 by corpsband Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 i have heard 3 tracks from this album and I like it...like a lot. I'll be intrigued by the arrangements. I've listened to the album, and I *really* like it - and I haaaate Rite of Spring. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Scroll down this page (roh.org) to the fourth pic and page through the ROS images. Think we might see that look? That would be VERY cool...esp if the whole corps was wearing a costume of some type. This show has a lot of potential, based on the source material. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Scott Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 The Darryl Benzel Mobtown Modern Big Band recording of The Rewrite of Spring can be found on Amazon, as well as, the Don Sebesky recording of The Rite of Spring. Great CD's! http://www.amazon.com/The-Rewrite-of-Spring/dp/B008DXI2R4/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1363793473&sr=1-1&keywords=Darryl+Brenzel http://www.amazon.com/Three-Works-Soloist-Symphony-Orchestra/dp/B00000JZ13/ref=sr_1_3?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1363793906&sr=1-3&keywords=Don+Sebesky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perc2100 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I've known about this for awhile, and I think this is the first spring in a long time that I've been genuinely really excited about Blue Devil's upcoming show. They're a corps that genuinely impresses me: one that I truly admire from a design and execution stand point. But I haven't always enjoyed or liked their shows beyond an academic appreciation. This show has a LOT of potential for me to really like & enjoy their them, and I can't wait to see what they do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFZFAN Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I've been hoping for a Blue Devils show that's as entertaining as it is technical. Maybe this is the year? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
