Hrothgar15 Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I'd also love to see SCV do a reprisal of their '78/'79 show, with Giovannini's Overture to a New Era from '78. That stuff from Gayane (especially Hopak or Gopak or whatever it's called) is golden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billj Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I so wanted Regiment to give Symphonie Fatasique another try when they had the black uni's. That was a great design, but the corps struggled a bit & was playing catch-up the whole year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobrien Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 (edited) None. I've been around long enough that I've heard most of the classics done to death. They rarely get better the 34th time around, and in a lot of cases, even if the playing is technically better than it used to be, the interest in discovery is simply gone, which makes the second or third hearings pale in comparison. And in some cases, the earliest versions simply nailed it; I've never heard a "Mambo" better than Anaheim's in '74, or a "Nuttville" as good as Spirit's in '79. Sometimes it's best to leave well enough alone. I'm looking forward to hearing music I don't know this summer, or at least, music I haven't yet heard in a drum corps setting.
