Okay DCI corps in general:  that’s more than enough of trombones being used as “big, dumb, brass slide whistles.“  I hear more glissandos in one DCI show then I ever played in my 8+ years of playing trombone in school. We get it - they’re  legal in DCI now. Let the instrument have a little dignity.  Am I the only one bugged by this? 

I’d like to see more corps use trombones in a similar way to SCV 2014, highlighting their more classical side as opposed to their “cool” factor.

I will say this again. Cavaliers are being underscored for both brass and percussion. That is an amazing display of musicianship.

OK, somebody please explain; why does the entire Cavaliers horn line die at the end by falling down?  Toxic waste from those barrels?

What's the point of playing the trombone when they can do that on baritone? You know what you can't do on baritone - glissandos

You know what's really easy to get sick of really fast? Unnecessary glissandos.

 

I'm with him on this one. It's been nonstop all night and the past few seasons.

I think the cavies have a more balanced show and caption strengths than crown or Boston but I also think this show being in 6th works. No single caption is scoring high enough.
