SCV Snare Ensemble, Paul Rennick, Director. With original music by JT Baker. Ensembles members: JT Baker, Jase Ballard, Caleb Brown, Megan Campbell, and Aidan Henderson
If I were still high school and this hit my eye/ear holes, my brain would have melted out of my nose. But now that I'm 30, it's just completely atomized. Fire.
@@connersmith9192 #facts I marched Jacksonville State U. drumline and we were BA and they still are BA now while my son is marching there, but on our best days we couldn't stand in the same room with this line.
This is technical. The MOST Technical I've heard SCV since ~ 2011-2012. Don't expect anything less under Rennick's Direction. If you know anything about him and his writing style, coupled with his Technicality, he's graced every Line that's been under him. Clean, Clean, CLEAN!
@@fr8train224 Of course..., our snare ensembles (and quad ensembles) started at UNT after it became clear the PAS College competition had participation issues. I encourage students to take the initiative and begin writing music. When a piece starts taking shape we have rehearsals where I talk primarily about the form and structure and give guidance about adjusting the composition. The student composers start to develop their voice, but you can sometimes hear the influence or variations on music they played during the summer. Here is a little history: 2006 (Dustin Doelling), 2009 (Josh Boychuk and Jonathan Leal), 2012 (Bayo Ajibade), 2013 (Aaron Fisher), 2015 (Peter Cannon),2016 (Bryce Gardner), 2017 (Bryce Gardner), 2021 (JT Baker),2022 (JT Baker). I am proud of all their work, and strongly encourage them to keep writing and go one to do great things.
Thanks for sharing this mastery of control for all to see and hear. This is a breath of fresh air. Real drumming. No acrobatics, prancing, posing, dancing, silly facial emoting- just all out drumming. Thank you SCV and UNT for all you do to advance the art of rudimental snare drumming. Thanks also for pushing the envelope in a forward direction every year. You are appreciated for maintaining what drew most of us into this activity. As a side note, I don't mean to take away from what other groups are doing. The members have no control over what the designers create for them to interpret. Pure drumming is what draws us in for sure. This is pure and real. No pretense. No antics. No acting. Pure. As an old experienced guy, I appreciate that and applaud your presentation. Keep up the good work.

This is epic! Excellent job and the tuning is so warm and soft. I absolutely love the way it sounds. I’m so glad they were still able to put this together.
Yunno, it’s not often that a snare line makes me cry, but this one did the trick. As an SCV alum (‘76-‘82 drum line), this was not something I was expecting to see this fine evening. It’s also nice to see some familiar faces from the 2022 line. Enjoy…and bring a hanky all you SCV alums 🙂 And now, back to watch it another couple/twelve times…
@@ataricomI did-by Fred and Ralph both. I was super lucky…esp. since I just joined the local drum corps being run by my High School band director-Gail Royer.
I was shocked to see and hear this. Great to see this effort and talent on an 'off' year. Best snare ensemble 'song' (tuning) I've heard and I'm just a horn guy. SCV 88-89-90
Thank you for this TRANSFUSION WE ALL NEED from SCV. .. beautiful sounds for sore ears and any assembly of SCV drummers is a sight for sore eyes- it's been a sad summer missing you all !!!!
I love how this ensemble is just 5 dudes who are all the same genre, and 1 girl who doesn't look like a snare drummer but is in fact super badass. Friggin love this video. This is drumming at the highest level.
I debated whether or not to watch a couple videos before I went to bed. Super tired. I’m currently on my fourth time through this video. Sleep can wait. This is amazing
You guys, meaning the entire corps, are so missed this year. Here's hoping you can regroup and knock my socks off in the usual SCV fashion next season.
They sound EXACTLY like one drum, except when they’re not supposed to. And the long roll about 75% through the video I couldn’t believe that they did. Absolutely mind blowing.
The SCV fans are still out there. One idea ought to put out a show similar to what SOI did. Have the show tour to particular areas . Let’s hope SCV will be back for 2024 the west coast scene right now is an easy slaughter for BD…
@@leoarevalo6786 that totally sucks that lack of funds SCV can’t travel and compete against all the other drum and bugle corps across America and not just here on the West Coast. Has this situation ever happened to other drum and bugle corps before?
Marching the summer season isn’t as simple as it used to be. There are shareholders that are looking for a return on their investment. Instructors looking to get their pay for time invested. Support staff needed to make sure the performers are getting along in the right mind. Insurance and that stuff. It’s not like in the past where it all fell on the director. The summer music program is a big monster now. What always amazed me was how the battery was able to look so different season to season.
I have always heard wispers that Rennick's books are easy and the players in his groups arent as good individually as some of the other groups. These guys just played the some of the choppiest stuff i've seen in a while with great touch and balance. I thought they would have been out for blood this summer and it seems only the corps folding could stop another Sanford.
Rennick's books always serve the music. Sometimes the most effective music might call for something simple. The thought that not writing a bunch of choppy nonsense somehow discredits the musicians playing it is laughable. There is a reason his percussionists have such a successful pedigree.
I don't think you need permission under fair use, although it doesn't stop shitty people from trying to copyright strike you in hopes of stealing the revenue/monetization from your video.
@@grizzlywhisker Drumline niche is so small in CZcams. I'm not worried about money. Views are small. SCV has given me a copyright strike before on a lot video so that's why I'm asking out of courtesy. But as you can see they didn't respond.
Dear lord, the cleanliness and precision exhibited here makes me miss my corps days. Unfortunately I’m now old and frail…lol. My days were the late 90s. And every year the lines just get better and better. This was absolute attention to detail. And that accelerando roll towards the end, it sounds simple enough….if it’s one drummer. But to do it in a line with such precision is mind blowing.
I’m sorry that the BOD & management failed to give you the season that you deserved … good luck to you all in all of your future endeavors SCV82/84/85 #jonz
Old-school snare sound meets new-school playing... Magical, and makes me wistful to see the Vanguard out on tour, but this was amazing.....Thank you!!! BD'79
Must disagree with you on 'old school' snare sound. Real rim-shots are non-existent and the projection is muted. Sounds like they are playing on the snare-side head of the 'old school' snares. Never cared for these modern marching snare drums. Nothing but 'diddle' patterns in modern drum corps with single patterns so prolific in 'old school' playing curiously absent. It is like the modern marching snare design dictates the writing of the snare chart.
even on the year off they're still the cleanest line

SCV is basically UNT and UNT rearranged is NUT which is precisely the effect this video had on me.

Same here, I’m 43 and they took me back to my high school day and early college. I was as sharp back then.
That was fun to watch!
Probably the best snare tuning I have ever heard. I’m in awe of the amount of talent and skill I just observed. Well done!
Performance and Tuning great but one can’t deny Sound engineering augments this with the overall quality this is on a stage mic-mixed well

Are the drums all tuned to different notes?

They bear a mysterious and striking resemblance to UNT's snare ensemble...lol. Great job!
Came to say the exact same thing! Good call...
Paul rennick is the percussion professor at UNT.. and most of the unt line players are in vanguard.. so that’s the resemblance..

0:55 WOW! That shot!
3:07 - 3:25 is awesome
Also the tuning sounds amazing. So warm.
probably the cleanest playing i’ve heard period. maybe it’s just from a first time listen. but good lord
Exceptional talent. Superb performance!! And that Great Dynasty sound!
This is epic! Excellent job and the tuning is so warm and soft. I absolutely love the way it sounds. I’m so glad they were still able to put this together.
This is what dreams are made of. Tasteful visuals, tight solos, beats for days.. I'm stunned.
Wow, those snares sound so tasty.
love it , love it, love itttttttttttttt!!!
This is utterly amazing in every way. Tuning, writing, performance, audio/video recording quality, visuals, demeanor... just perfection.
4:17 sounds like a film movie starting up. As always from Rennick’s ensembles, these folks are killing it in cleanliness, sound quality, and chops.
That’s it. That’s the new bar. This is blend, cleanliness, and just perfection
Drumming just took a massive leap into the future. Please come back soon! #SCV
What happened to the SCV this season as they’re not marching during drum corps season? It feels weird with them not being around.
@@cmqguyissues with money
@@cmqguy Running a corps is super expensive. Unfortunately too many corps have folded over the years. But I hope to se them on the field again soon.
