Without tradition, judges would never know how to reward its exact opposite. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we are talking competitive status, as you mentioned in the first paragraph, my initial reaction is that the 2022 Cavaliers brass and percussion did not have a chance to fully shine due to the music book construction and the overall design of the show. This all day. Great instructional team and a talented group of musicians, but they could only work with what they were handed for the charts, and the visual program simply didn't live up to what the corps has historically achieved. It felt like they were on a trajectory in 2019 that would have made them competitively relevant again, but whatever happened in the two years since, they lost their way, programming wise, and it's clear that some sort of change was needed. Hoping all those who've chosen to move on find the right fits for themselves elsewhere, and that whoever the new programming team is can hit the ground running with a strategy to reinvigorate the corps, competitively.

greg_orangecounty Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 It would definitely be a "shake-up" but I won't be surprised to see GH return to the activity as a "consultant" for an OC Corps. If not 2023, definitely by 2024. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open class has enough issues without him. Not to mention that Open Class members are typically younger than World Class members. And also tend to have more parental involvement. I really don't think that any Corps, let alone an OC Corps wants to deal with the ####-storm that will happen if he is hired. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
