Well, the show was called "five" :P

Yeah, I know. I'm just sayin' we had a different product written.

And I'd still like to see someone do that show. No, wait -- I'd like to see someone ask me to write that show. There.

i swear to god i posted in this same thread a week ago lol...anyways..i would love to hear somebody commision a 11 minute work from eric whitacre for the field. the man can do every friggin' thing else amazingly, so i would assume he could write something unbelievably incredible..

The man is a freakin genius. However, I think I'm right in saying that he had a bad experience as a trumpet player in a marching band. I think they told him he was "impossible" or something. So he might not be too keen.

Man, I need to hear that show! I don't know why I haven't bought the '04 CDs yet.

Their full program that year:

Heroes Symphony Mvt I (Glass!)

1000 Airplanes on the Roof (Glass!)

October

Song of Aeolus

Five (original piece, I believe)

Although I'm positive their opener was 1000 Airplanes....

Yeah, I remember hearing about the show in the spring of '04, but being on tour all summer I never got to see them, and I haven't gotten around to buying the DVD or CD's yet.

Do they sell DVDs of Quarterfinals?

I've got the CD. Would be nice to have on DVD as well. I also really liked Esperanza's 2003 show, they used Gorecki's Harpsichord Concerto that year. Fortunately, that's something they did make a DVD of, though unfortunately it only offers multi-cam.
