kevingamin Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 Nice trumpet solo on the melody of Stay With Me. Horn sound from the 10 member line is balanced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 Drum line grooving as the horns play the Stay With Me Chorus. Trumpet takes it up an octave for our first high notes of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 This trumpet soloist is getting a lot of work early on in the show. Guard flags are brilliant gold and silver, very eye catching on the backdrop of the mainly black uniforms of the corps as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Tanji Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Excelsior kicks off the weekend of full corps performances. Wearing black uniforms but being cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Tanji Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Love these small but tight horn lines. They are doing it right by finding the groove and not trying to sound like a big horn line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 This is a small corps with a lot of chops. Everybody is contributing to the performance in every section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Tanji Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Real strong lead trumpet playing. Yeah, I'm a horn player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
