Kamarag Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) That Suncoast Sound one was done on one valve bugles with pistons, no? No. When the corps was founded, they purchased the a set of matching 2-valve bugles (the first corps to buy a complete matching set). There may have been a few piston-rotor contras in the line, but everything else was 2-valve. What you are hearing however, is a second-year corps that just completed it's first competitive season. They were created to play at the Queen's Festival in England in 1979, and they attended a grand total of two shows that year: Greeneville, SC and DCI Championships in Birmingham, AL. The corps did 10 shows in 1980, and a few more in 1981 before conducting a full 30+ show tour in 1982.

MikeD Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) Crap. I was hoping this thread was about great brass runs. I'm leaving. In my Cadet years, one time we stayed in Northbrook Ill at a school for a long weekend. The field was waaaaay far away from the school building. There was something amiss with the food and/or water, because the brass (plus everybody else) was often seen running back to the school...so the phrase word "brass runs" actually had multiple meanings in that situation.

Ghost Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Lighten up geez it's only a joke! Why so serious? You missed my humor completely. With more time on DCP and read more of BRASSO's posts, you'll be enlightened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Being categorically against runs is silly. Depends on the corps, the arranger, and the repertoire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
