    I mentioned in the video that this was a final rehearsal. This is incorrect. This footage is a first time runthrough on a field -- which sort of makes it even more incredible that so much of this is still performed at such a high level.

      I’m 2 months late but when you said the double time conducting, but that’s called thumping if I’m not mistaken, but holds the same purpose in the fast tempos

      I'm glad you enjoyed it. There's actually quite a few people in the comments asking for DCI/marching band stuff, especially after I did the Blue Devils video months ago, so maybe this won't be the last time I look at this stuff.

    As a marching drill and visual designer/instructor, I really appreciate that you acknowledge how these shows are designed in a way so visual feeds from the music and music pushes the visual to create something greater than the sum of the parts. How it all fits together to create excitement, emotion, and reaction from the crowd. :)

    Fun fact: SCV, the reigning 4 year in a row holder of the best percussion caption award, don’t teach heights. They more or less teach balance of sound. Some people have heavier hands than others, and that’s something that they take into account. Doesn’t necessarily look the best, but it sounds amazing.

  • @upsidedownpyramid7617

    That was a trombone but it didn't have a harmon mute, I think part of it was because of the mic quality and the other part was because it seemed like Skatune (The guy who played the baritone solo in the ballad and the trombone solo) has a pretty noticeable tone and his chops were blown at that point of the performance

    That damn ramp scared the hell out of me all season, especially after one of the snares slipped on it during the first show. It wasn't until the last guy made it down -- and it was clear they would not win and do an encore run -- that I finally relaxed about it.

    You missed that the trumpet soloists at the end were using wah-wah (autocorrect sucks) pedals as they played into the mic and you didn’t recognize Zombee Wolf by Frank Zappa as the penultimate song.
