year1buick Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 3 hours ago, TRacer said: You have to understand that physically GR was very ill and knew the ‘92 season would be his “last ride”; in fact, he passed away about 8-10 months later. He wanted to see his drum corps do Fiddler “one more time”, and I for one loved the opening starting line move with the high mark time. Many younger DCP members don’t realize just how involved he was in the musical arranging of SCV shows in the early years, and Fiddler has his fingerprints on it. I still have sheet music from the seasons I marched, and the Bari 1 (in G!!) part of Clowns I have framed on my office wall says “ARR: G.R.” in the upper right corner. It’s the same arrangement you hear today, albeit on Bb instruments. That’s a cool idea. I should do that with my euph part to Amazing Grace from ‘92.
