Nice show.  once again a small Class A corps with 20ish horns not  trying to sound like 60.  Good Job!

The way it should be done, right George? Good for them.

Nice trumpet soloist on the Here Comes the Sun melody, overlayed on the pit playing Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me. Nice arranging, too.

Great blend in the horns!

Any idea when the first block of scores will be announced, or have I missed it?

Not trying to be snarky here... just asking.  LOL.

The show theme is basically a solar eclipse. There are five panels along the midsection of the field. The first two display the sun in full and in partial eclipse. The panels also serve to create a stage for the corps, shrinking the field to better accommodate their size.

Just thinking how tight the horn line sounds from the feed

Horns have a GREAT ensemble sound, both in terms of tonality across the sections and in terms of their technique.
