brichtimp Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 (edited) Wow that's great. Wasn't your son in that amazing Cadets 2014 battery? Yes, he was on that 2014 snare line..... They were very strong and a collection of solid musicians, beyond the obvious strong chops. Additionally, the two years in C2 were excellent preparation for Dan to gain the skills and confidence to hang with the Cadets.

xandandl Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 got this email: Cadets2 Announces 2016 Program, Full Circle "So many times in life, we end up where we begin," Cadets2 Co-director and Program Coordinator George Hopkins said. "In 2016, Cadets2 will present a high-energy production that explores the idea of the Full Circle from color, through movement, and even through musical arrangements," Hopkins continued. A full corps of 60 brass players, 32 color guard members and 36 percussionists will bring to the field the music of Pat Metheny, featuring the two classic productions, "First Circle" and, "The Heat of the Day." Much of C2's instructional and design teams return for the 2016 season, including Drill Designer Jeff Sacktig, Brass Arranger Jay Bocook, Brass Caption Supervisor Gino Cipriani, Color Guard Supervisor Kristy Templin, Lead Designer Joe Heininger, and Visual Supervisor Corey Moore. The leadership of the corps will be shared by Co-directors George Hopkins and Rich Templin. Upcoming Rehearsals | Positions Available Cadets2 will be rehearsing this weekend at Daniel Boone High School in Birdsboro, Pa., and for the first time ever, the staff will be officially awarding contracts to members of the corps, both new and returning. C2 welcomes anyone interested in a brass position in this weekend-only Cadets ensemble to the upcoming rehearsal. The corps is also looking for a drum set player and a synth player to join the C2Pit.

BigW Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 The music end of the program looks the goods at face value. The one thing that needs to be done to contend for the whole shebang is to make certain the brass book has more meat and that the performers are trusted and will sell the goods. The brass section took a big step in the right direction last season, but I felt they were on too short a leash- and that was the main factor in the final results.
