kevingamin Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 First on the field is Cadence from Guilford, United Kingdom. Their 2018 program is entitled "I Am Nature". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 The show opens with the pit and narration from Nature (some call her Mother Nature, apparently). She says she doesn't really need people. Kind of snarky, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 After the narration, the drum line enters as well. Low brass comes in and starts with the diamond song. I forget the name, but it's by Karl Jenkins. I have a program but I literally have no place to put it or access it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 Nice long sustained chord by the brass building to the first impact of the show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingamin Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 More narration from another aspect of nature. We've gone pop with the music, but I don't recognize the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 Park and blow section on the pop song. Guard on flags with different types of flowers on them. Mellophone soloist back on the platform to finish the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
