I'm hoping that people will put up pieces that have never-or at least, rarely-been done. Any genre is fine, and feel free to say which corps would fit best with the piece. My list, which I'll probably update from time to time.: Orchestral pieces Low Symphony—Philip Glass (any corps, please just do it) The Black Maskers-Roger Sessions (my favorite is from 18:30 on...would be a great intro to a show) Wind Ensemble/Brass Ensemble pieces Baron Cimetiere’s Mambo (thanks to Nikk for commissioning this one)—Donald Grantham Trauersinfonie—Wagner (could be an instant classic for Phantom just like Elsa's Procession) The Place Where Dreams Come True James Horner Other Our Prayer—Brian Wilson (Crown or the Cadets) Pretty sure Patriots did Low Symphony over 97-2003.

NewArpege Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) “Denouement” by Benjamin Wallfisch is a more haunting but similar vibe as “Adagio for Strings.” Listen to 1:33 forward and you’ll see what I mean. This song is begging for the brass power of SCV or Crown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-aH9kDKVBY Edited July 29, 2022 by NewArpege Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdaddy Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 We surely need another version of Ave Maria out there. This is a new release piano transcription. Sounds a little sparse, so here's the original vocal version with orchestra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orwellian Wiress Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Can we get some more soundtrack love in DCI? Stranger Things is my all-time favorite media soundtrack and I would love to hear a brass version, especially with the beautiful orchestral cover in Season 4's finale 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squarepush Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 This would be a more Carolina Crown, Cadets, Boston Crusaders even Blue Stars perhaps type show, but the music from the movie The Village by James Newton Howard. It doesn't have to be about the movie obviously. Even still, I think even themes of the movie could be well translated into a show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your other James Newton Howard score and raise you Hunger Games. These uniforms would be cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted August 6, 2022 Author Share Posted August 6, 2022 I'm good with film scores being used without doing the film itself as a show theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tedrick Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Asalato or Kosh Kash Has anyone ever seen this interesting West African/Portuguese instrument used in drum corps or WGI? Seems like it would be a natural extension to marching cymbals - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
