The "Music Corps Should Do" thread


Recommended Posts

I'm still waiting for someone to do a shortened version of the final movement of the Mahler 3rd Symphony. The constant ebb and flow and incessant build would provide one heck of a carrot-on-a-stick for the audience.

Music Corps Should Do Currently up to date (Completed in about 21.5 hours, including sleep and school. Wow!) 277 hours of music which is slightly over a week and 4 days worth of music.

Music Corps Should Do <- Spotify Playlist. Up to page 15

edit: Made progress

Great idea. Nearly 700 tracks already. I did a quick scan and I only have 8 of these personally Starred. 5 of which were my suggestions anyways. Still, lot's of good listening there.

I think the storm music from Mahler 5 would be pretty awesome on a field.

so would the 1st movement of Mahler's 6th Symphony

Just sitting here thinking about the various stances, opinions, viewpoints and plain ol' desires (the MUSIC ones, people -- please!!!) of the DCP community and drum corps fans when the thought suddenly struck me...

"Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima" by Krzysztof Penderecki. Talk about wanting to be the proverbial fly-on-the-wall...

That would be quite an interesting choice. Or some Morton Feldman thrown out onto the field. DCP would explode if that kind of music appeared on the field

The world of Video Games has A LOT to offer in my opinion, some incredible stuff. Have been listening to the "Journey" soundtrack from the PS3 game, beautiful. Blue Stars in 05 did Final Fantasy, which was a really cool show. Would love to see that delved into more.

I've been thinking lately, Pure Imagination from the original Willy Wonka has some potential... could be integrated kind of like how Cavies used Nature Boy in 2011.

HEre are a couple of good versions:

Lake Central high school used it in an absolutely amazing way this past fall, one of my favorite put together shows in drum corps, high school, ect. Would love to hear that more on the field.
