va9590jm Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 But I think Yosemite Autumn by Mark Camphouse would be a great corps piece. I got the opportunity to play that piece under Mark Camphouse a few months ago. What a great piece! It's always great getting to play a piece under the baton of the original composer. I think it would be great on the field, especially the middle "horse ride" section. Quote
HornsUp Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 American Overture by Joseph Wilcox Jenkins would be a phenomenal way to go....I imagine the Cadets could pull it off. As well as Phantom did in 1975? Quote
Hrothgar15 Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 As well as Phantom did in 1975? I love what Phantom did with this, as well as Trooper's rendition in 1989. It's time for this piece to come back, Cadets could definitely pull it off. Quote
whitedawn Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 i say we should take ourselves a little less seriously... Radiohead - "Nude" -- Sigur Ros - "Glosoli" -- Fall Out Boy - "Thriller" (yes, i'm being completely serious. 45 seconds of this would be a really fun way to open a show, especially if the horn line was LOUD.) -- David Bowie - "Life on Mars" -- Say Anything -- "Alive With the Glory of Love" (the back half of this tune is a gas... the accelerando is great.) -- The Killers - "Exitlude" (this would be a great way to end an encore... WITH the singing.) -- Quote
Lance Posted March 26, 2008 Author Posted March 26, 2008 I'd like to add Vaughan Williams's Piano Concerto in C. And I concur wholeheartedly with what others have said about Bruckner 8. I'll take Phantom doing any movement from it, though I'd prefer them doing the scherzo and/or the finale. 1 Quote
DrinkinOuttaCups Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Maybe it's the fact that I have it blaring in my ears at the moment, but I'd love to hear a corps try "Roman Carnival Overture" again (I know Phantom did it in '98, but I haven't seen that show, so I don't know how it was). Quote

I did too actually. lol It's really amazing how interactive he was able to get without the score. He's really a brilliant conductor. Just out of curiosity, where did you play it? Quote
