She's learning 2. She has very good instincts/intuition This was enjoyable. yeah..i mean to those of us immersed in the activity this show challenged us from all we knew.

Lance Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Star arranged Barber's piece for drum corps. The Cadets tinkered with its underlying ostinato and built a new piece that paid loving homage to Barber's original. Very much like what the Cavies did in 2000 with McTee's "Soundings". I love both shows equally, but as a huge Barber fan, I hope it's clear that they didn't play the same piece. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandman28 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I love that she is getting new support for our activity. She is enjoyable. I see us in her excitement when we were all young to the activity. I think DCI should her do commentary from a fans perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KVG_DC Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I like this thread because it 'reintroduces' me to some of my favorite shows. Man...Academy. Drum Corpse Bride was seriously lightning in a bottle. The Danse, the xylobones, the uniforms, the gravestones, the closer! And most of all the relationship they'd built with the crowd through the season as they made finals for the first time with what was seriously a crowd favorite. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time at the Oil Can was 2015 and first time I really saw The Academy. Their ballad that year, with the field percussion also with double flags, really impressed me. May they get their 2016 mojo back again. https://www.facebook.com/shutuo097/videos/10215218445968191/?t=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
