Pit_Girl_77 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Colt Cadets Announce 2013 Program April 3, 2013 Matt Mulvanny, Colt Cadets Director The 2013 Colt Cadets present "RED." Close your eyes. Let your emotions take control. What do you see? How do you feel? More than simply a color. Red communicates feeling, an aura, a warmth, experienced by each individual in his or her own unique way. The angst of confrontation. The passion of your pursuits. The love of your life. The pride of your accomplishments. The Colt Cadets explore the rainbow of emotions conveyed by one deceptively complex color. The show will feature the musical selections of Habanera (from Carmen) by Georges Bizet, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by David Grusin, Happy Ending (from The Red Pony Suite) by Aaron Copland, and an original composition entitled Red in the Air by Terry White and Brian Zeglis. Prepare to experience your own individual journey, as the Colt Cadets present their 2013 program, "RED." CLICK HERE for a detailed description of the show, musical repertoire, and a list of staff that will instruct the Cadets during the summer. The Colt Cadets are comprised of approximately 80 middle- and high-school students from throughout the U.S. The corps maintains at least a 2/3 local base of members that live in Dubuque and the surrounding tri-state area. The Colt Cadets will appear in 15-16 competitive performances throughout the summer, as well as a number of parades and exhibitions in the Dubuque area. Their Drum Corps International season begins with a show in Rockford, Illinois on June 21, followed by an evening in Dubuque with the Colts at their Summer Premiere on June 22 at Loras College. The Colt Cadets were founded in 1967 and are one of only three corps with a World Class "big brother" in Drum Corps International...the others being in Santa Clara and Concord, California.
