Santa Clara Vanguard 2018


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know officially when/where SCV is moving in for spring training? Website has Denton, TX for percussion on 5/18-5/19 and Santa Clara, CA on 5/19. That seems like quite a trek for the percussion section...thanks!

That just means you won semi-finals, not finals ;)

Or you’re doing the victory performance. :rolleyes:

The percussion generally moves in separately from the rest of the corps for maybe a week. I don't know if this is the case this year, but many years a significant portion of the percussion section are UNT students (in Denton) where Paul Rennick teaches. They usually have the percussion-only Winter camps in Denton as well.

They’re changing things up a bit this year. Everyone is moving in (well, has moved in) to Southern Oregon University in Ashland, OR, where they’ll be for the next 3 weeks before they presumably head off to California for the remainder of pre-tour.

GO SCV! As many of y'all know, I am a green machine fan... but SCV has a special place in my heart and I greatly look forward to what ya'll may give us this summer. Just as long as a couple of y'all can give The Cavaliers a few cheers... I am good to go!

You’re a Cavies fan? You astonish me!

Dropped by to one of their percussion rehearsals today. Sounding great, very aggressive. The ballad portion from the FE sounds beautiful. Can't gauge what their show's theme is though, very fast paced.

I stopped by yesterday on campus as well and caught one of their run-throughs, and I agree! Very aggressive music straight out of the gate, I can't quite pin the theme either but I definitely like the flavor. Really can't wait to see the repertoire/show and hear it come together with the horn line.

The Instagram story seems to match the aggressive reports. Out of context, it gives me a Cadets 2011 “demons” entrance vibe. It looks like the color guard (and hornline?) rehearsing some crawling body stuff to some intense drumline beats! Super interesting vibe! If only I could screen record it to share what I’m seeing.
