    At roughly 1:01, the middle voices (at this point, the highest voice) do a major third over the bass, and there are virtually no beats, which means they're pushing that third down a good 16 cents. WOW. HUGE sound, nearly perfect intonation. The perfect prescription for goosebumps? Some killer DCI brass.

      What’s a beat in this context?

    • @killstrees
      @killstrees Před rokem +42

      ​@@M.A.J.H it's referring to the difference in the notes when comparing how in or out of tune the horns are. Say two horn players are playing middle C, which is roughly 262hz. One horn is a little sharp, at 266hz, the other is slightly flat at say 259hz. This is close enough that you will hear a "wave" or "beat" in the sound these two horns create. As they get closer to each other as they tune their instrument, the "wave" will slow down until they reach the frequency of 262hz, middle C.

      It’s such a great feeling.💯💯💯 When I marched Bluecoats I remember we had one cutoff at a certain practice field that you could hear the wall of sound ricochet off the mountains in the distance about 2-3 seconds after the cutoff.
      Sorry to ramble but I remember that same season with Blooo we had to march a parade in Massachusetts I believe , that went by some frat houses. All the drunk college kids were cheering for a little marching band they thought. Drum major stopped us in front of the house. We turned to face them and blasted them with the wall of sound. All their faces melted, It was such close proximity. 😂😂😂

Every person on that pad is there putting every ounce of effort they have into perfecting their routines. Even though hearing this through youtube through headphones will be nowhere near the experience of hearing it in person, it still has me bawling hearing such a beautiful sound. Hell, this is a warm up and it's got me in tears. Massive respect to everyone putting their lives into music as good as this. You're literally giving people the ability to experience pure, unbridled emotion through the sheer power of music.

    I march with the Louisiana Stars and I have heard from staff who marched crown about this guy, I can't tell whether the amount of passion and sometimes utter insanity scares me or makes me want to join the corps even more. Such an incredible hornline, Matt Harloff accepts nothing but perfection.

Our show performance was pretty rough, but that few minutes of warmup beforehand is a core memory.

    • @iandyer1551
      @iandyer1551 Před 6 lety +10

      +Bruhh resonance is related to aligning the overtone series and intonation. The harmonic series allows the sound waves to be perceived louder. Interference does the opposite, and decreases the overall amplitude and perceived loudness.

      Kempsville High School, Virginia Beach, VA, 1995 (Freshman year). William E. Pease was the Director of Bands and the visionary behind the award-winning Marching Chiefs.
      The guy was hard on me, as he was all of us. I couldn't catch a break and I was a terrible musician. He rode my back all year long and saw something I didn't know was there. Before leaving the school at the end of my first year of high school, Mr. Pease transferred me to percussion.
      I'm a drummer to this day. The lessons this tyrant of a genius shared will be with me for the rest of my life. As for Mr. Pease? He went on to be known as Dr. Bill Pease, Director of Bands at the University of Virginia.

      I marched '97-'03 with the Kiwanis Kavaliers before the amplification. I could never really get into the shows pre 90s. Too far into the 80s and it starts to get really really repetitive for me. One the of loudest hornlines I've ever heard was BD '98. They were louder playing backfield than some of the corps playing front. One of the most impressive things I've heard was SCVs hornline singing Adagio for Strings in warmup before finals in 2000(singing through their ballad). They were spot on. Overtones were crazy.

      What I love is how they focus on the ensemble. Crown rarely has crazy solo squealers and such. It's always focusing on making the individual fit the section which fits the ensemble. That's why they're the best

      What's really shocking is that Crown DOES have screamer parts, they are just used within the entirety of the band, making it even more impressive.

    • @Speakzzz
      @Speakzzz Před 6 lety +9

      Peter mercil Well let me explain the science. Your ears act as drums. Meaning they vibrate when sound happens. If there is something loud, for instance a marching band, it vibrates to a certain extent that you just can't hear clarity in articulation, tone, or tuning. When you plug your ears, your adding pressure to stop the vibration, allowing the back of your ears to absorb the minor details they're looking for. Katie and Evan Vandoren have been with crown for years, I'm pretty certain they're not plugging their ears because it hurts them

      Intensity of the volume is not emotion. This is so bad ass and amazing and jaw dropping! It's just loud louder and loudest. Real emotion comes with the artistic liberties taken by both the conductor and the ensemble. There's nothing like this here. It's exactly what is printed on the page which is loud louder and loudest. This is pure intensity. Not emotion.

      Idk if you were ever in band, but plugging your ears actually helps hear the actual tone of the instruments. It gets rid of the extra noise so it’s easier to tell if someone if out of tune. I doubt anyone here is tho...
