acn Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I was pleasantly surprised with Crowns version of The Red Pony. How would you rate it with some other versions of it. I'm sure other corps have played it, but these are the ones that come to mind. For me, it can't get much better than SCV '85. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobrien Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 (edited) The placement is wrong. Good arrangement, but that part of the score was designed to be "finale" music - the way SCV used it in '85. If there's a weakness in their overall design this year, that's it for me; two finale pieces in one show. But what are ya gonna do? If you're using the Rossini, it's gonna go in the final slot in the line-up, so... Edited June 17, 2007 by mobrien Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hxcsoprano Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Hm.. I'm going to have to keep an eye out for this. Red Pony is one of my favorite pieces that I have ever performed on a football field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavies79 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Didn't Troopers also perform "Red Pony" in 1986? I think they didn't, but wouldn't swear on it. I also like SCV's 85 version the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Laubhan Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Don't forget BK '92 :) I'm still partial to Cadets 96... I love that show. One of the 3 that got me hooked on the activity that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJN Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Didn't get to hear Crown - I got home in time to catch about the last 1:30 of Cavaliers :( So of the ones I have heard --- SCV 1985 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
