BlueStainGlass Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Glad to hear legends opening night was great. Know several staff and members and it's great for Michigan to have a corps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingamin Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Huge sound from the corps right from the start with the Phantom theme, the horns marching hard and fast in an expanding sphere formation. Trumpet soloist on the Think of Me melody now. The opening is essentially the overture in terms of stage musical structure so we're getting clips of each of the main theme, now back to the main theme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 "Down once more to the darkness of my black despair..." Unison mellos sound wonderful and aren't afraid to just wail like mellos should when called upon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Second movement. Very dark and mysterious opening before going into the opening of Masquerade. "Dear Andre, what a splendid party" Drums coming front for a feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Snares are playing match grip for a brief section. Too much bass from the pit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 All I Ask of You. Baritone soloist starts, mellophones pick up on the "Say you'll stay with me" line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Much better balance between the horns and the pit during the ballad. Some very nice backfield playing as they finish out All I Ask of You, as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
