Why not pieces from several Bernstein works? A few visual vignettes to match sprinkled in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernstein has plenty of material to pull from. Cadets need to put something new on the field. I know... crazy thought. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know... crazy thought. Yeah, that's 'kinda the point. The Cadets might be better not using a single-work theme for the entire production. There's plenty to pick from. Chose as you like. Just keep it melodic, somewhat familiar, not obscure, nor "science project" type explorations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like for 2018 to be a settling-in year for the team, but I'm not sure I see that happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do not need it on a stage. We do not need it with some props. We do not need it with a choir. We do not need it on a mic. We do not need it here or there. We do not need it anywhere. We do not need WSS, my friend! (thank you, thank you Sam-I-am) 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be wise, all things considered... Chichester could be done almost like Carmina Burana though. More "naughty monk" than pious devotion...
