Dancer In The Dark performed in full, with drums, for the first time at the 2021 May camp since the victory run of the only dci show to have every judge award first place.
I'm so old that I remember when TV football and Super bowl half time shows were drum corps and marching band performances. I always thought they were so much fun and enjoyable to watch.
The young woman directing is EXCELLENT at it! I'm so used to seeing the teachers doing the directing - it's wonderful to see such a young person doing it!
There’s simply nothing like the feeling you get from everyone working together to play music with as much soul, emotion, technique and heart that you can give. It sends chills down my spine-remembering that feeling of utter unity and togetherness, as your body feels itself playing and your ears hear the resulting beauty.
While most of us are sitting down watching some TV or your head is in your phone, THESE Amazing Talents are in the studio PRACTICING TO BE THE BEST THERE EVER WAS!!! That's why no other can do it!!! NYC🤘
I marched four years at The University of Texas. My time spent playing and performing on the field are some of my best memories. Thanks for sharing. I will always miss it.
This is spring ensemble and listen to the detail already in place. This was an outstanding symphonic sound so balanced. Yes there was click bait, and I bit. Having been in a small corps in 1982, I can truly relate to this work. This kids in corps are truly talented. I remember the drum line instructor wrote something technical for a local HS to execute. 2 weeks and they couldn't get it. He was frustrated and wanted to know if it was too difficult. So the drum line, took the piece studied and discussed it for 5 minutes, and made a tape that was flawless for the local hs school to learn from. The oldest corps member was 15, youngest 12. Their statement was, hey that was fun, what else you got? Those were the days.

I've got no idea why this came up on my recommended, but I'm so pleased it did! It sounded wonderful and was mesmerising to watch. Thanks for sharing.
If you've ever played in a boomy high school gym before, you know how hard it is to play musically as an ensemble in that kind of space. Major props!
Was confused by that description until I realized 05 was the only show to win all captions and sub captions, not just a caption sweep.
My god. That section after the brushes just fits like a damn glove. This had to of been a

Watching performances like this makes me really miss marching band and concert band. Amazing job to everyone!
Love this. High school bad is where I met my husband 60:years ago. Parents should encourage their kids to learn a musical instrument.
They did quite well. They were in sinc, and the overall feel of the music was consistent. They had it down, and you could feel it. Well done.
Very nicely done, excellent.... From a guy still playing that damned French horn after 50 years. Three with SC Vanguard... '68, '69, '70.

Stunning performance! The dude doing the shaker and glock! Holy moly! Serious chops!
Would love to see this performed on the field...Absolutely beautiful.
As a 70 year old alumnus of the Des Plaines Vanguard, I loved this. Brings back so many memories.
I would be crying with pride if a child of mine performed so beautifully! 🥰
I've got no word to describe how I felt listening to this. Thanks you all! It is fresh air in this age of lack of dedication and mediocrity.
