But I would really hope after earning a degree to teach this stuff I would be able to tell which has a better basic ensemble sound and tone production. If not crap. I wasted the last four years of my life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, intonation being off is a pretty universal concept in western music. If you're out of tune you're out of tune. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not dropping out of sustains, and not hitting octaves (well I blame that one on the writing), and farty nasty low brass tone, and many more things.

I want to love you more. My Wife and I went to Dekalb and were shocked that Cavies were within 1-1/2 points of SCV...and even more shocked that they placed 2nd in brass and were so close to SCV's brass score. Cavies horn line needs A LOT of work. Our favorite show was S CV followed by Academy, who are very entertaining and enjoyable and play melodic memorable music...and their drum line is clean cleric clean. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna go into duck and cover after I say this but I think Crossmen played better than Cavaliers tonight in brass. Ok burn me at the stake. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I feel Cavaliers were too close to SCV on scoring. The rest of the scores seem on point. Some of the corps are just dirty especially with the new content as most are making changes and additions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
