skluyuk Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I really don't understand the reason for this thread at all. For the inside scoop about when people are going to make personal decisions, I'd recommend talking to the person. Orale'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tsar Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I don't know too much about Myron's history, other than the fact that I really like his drills... Can anyone fill me in on: 1. How long he's been designing, and where? 2. What did he play? Or was he a guard guy? 3. Where did he march? 4. Is it true that he just draws the forms and has someone else plot them? Thanks. I actually like his drills...they're just too hard sometimes for the corps he's written them for. Still, 1997-2004 SCV had some great drill.

Matt_S Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I know he marched Santa Clara Vanguard in 1980 (I want to say on mellophone?). He's listed on the State of the Art CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tsar Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Here's a little background on him, courtesy of Drum Corps World:http://www.drumcorpsworld.com/articles.cfm?ID=413 I find it fascinating how quickly his drills got so complex. I mean...from 1987 to 1996 they had good, solid drill, but certainly nothing that I would put in the same league as with Cavaliers, Regiment, Cadets, or Star during those years. Then BAM! 1997, and it is a completely different style, one that I loved. Can anyone who was there speak about how that style change came about, how it was received, and why he left SCV after 30 years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
festive Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 (edited) 97-01 Vanguard had easily the most exciting drill of any drum corps over that time period, as far as I'm concerned. I see 99 as his masterpiece; it quite literally is a masterpiece of drum corps as visual art. He hasn't really topped it yet, IMO, but he might someday and I wouldn't be at all surprised. His drill stuff is genius; it's always enjoyable, at the very least. Myron Rosander kicks ###. ^0^ If there's a drum corps legends pantheon, well, he's right in there.

Matt_S Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 1998 was pretty #### sweet, especially the opener. I think 1998-2000 had a style unique to anything else we've seen before, even from Rosander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 97 was my favorite of his drills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skajerk Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Was proud to have Myron as my first marching tech in in drum corps with VF. I was proud to know that he was in the stands watching at DCA in '04 and proud to count him as a friend. Best of luck with whatever happens in the future, Myron.
