kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 Very nice opening choreo by the brass and guard as the front ensemble opens the show musically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 Love the purple uniforms for the brass and percussion, very royal with just enough sequins to catch the lights and not overpower your senses. The guard is in lovely cream colored outfits which are cut to make them look tall and elegant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 After the opening statement of the show, the drums come forward for a feature. Horns come back in behind them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 Snare feature, followed by some EWI action from a soloist on side 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 That was a pretty hardcore solo on EWI. I know the Guardians have used that instrument before, so its nice to see them bring it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 One of the guard members appears with a long white sheet of fabric as the movement closes out. Third movement opens with front ensemble members on various hand drums and shakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 Intricate bass drum feature on side 2, right in front of me as two brass players duet to open the Radiohead portion of the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 Large silks evocative of the night or dark storm clouds are unveiled. Looks like these might be swing flags as well. Yep! So much color on the field! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 Welcome to the Black Parade, except they just got rid of the black by changing flags. 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
