    Glad crown is doing a quiet ballad. such a different skill of control and maturity that isn't as developed in other horn lines

  • @DeeboComing
    @DeeboComing Před rokem +31

    The ballad is Wagner's Prelude to Tristan un Isolde. The first chord from the full ensemble is infamously known as THE Wagner chord which is monumental in music history and theory. Go listen to the orchestral version of this. It's rubato, 6/4 and very artistic. It's the absolute last thing I ever thought I would see in a field show 😭😭🙌🏾🙌🏾

      Loved when Alan said it sounded like Debussy. He didn’t know who it was by but he could just hear the harmonic structure and know it’s from that Romantic Era!

    I love Everett flexing the desk setup lol. I like the new percussion writing and I DEFINITELY think Crown will play a major role in the drums game in the near near future. My guess is they'll win a Sanford in the next 5 years given the level they're already performing at.

  • @TealTrump11
    @TealTrump11 Před rokem +23

    Honest question from an DCI Alum. Does a winning show always have to push the boundaries of the activity. If that is the strongest criteria, then Bluecoats have been doing that for a long time but they only have one gold to show for it. How do you counter the ppl that say BD's shows are all the same in that instance? I believe that BD has found a great foundation for show design, of which it feels as though they've refined and mastered since 2009 that will gain them the most points to win. ( I know that's not entirely true ). My point is that not every winning show has to push the boundaries. Shows can have all of the elements that reach the highest quality of performance essentially meeting that boundary. What is "pushing the boundary" when show design and execution is at arguably the highest level that it has ever been?

    • @truthteller8504
      @truthteller8504 Před rokem +6

      Pushing the boundary has never been required to win. Most corps who push the boundaries don't win so I'm not sure where you got that from. It's about cleanliness. Blue Devils are typically very clean overall across percussion, hornline, and guard, visually and musically, hence they typically win

    • @bradfordwebster3181
      @bradfordwebster3181 Před rokem +2

      It can be all of those things!!! It is a balancing act. You gotta be clean AND you gotta push boundaries (subtly or glaringly) while ALSO not losing the history and lore of the activity that is so foundational to its charm. The Blue Devils are not everyone's favorite, but they have refined an approach that works pretty well at balancing it all

    • @zachchurch9819
      @zachchurch9819 Před rokem +2

      ⁠@@truthteller8504I think they said that because in the video there was a comment about how it’s a very “crown” show and doesn’t push boundaries of the activity, so I believe they’re asking for insight in if that effects scores at the end of the day. I could be wrong but that’s how I interpreted it.

    • @funlinerproductions7071
      @funlinerproductions7071  Před rokem +11

      Appreciate this comment! I think one thing to note is that pushing the boundary of the activity can mean a lot of things. I think the Bluecoats are the most “in your face” with how they go after new and different ideas within the marching activity. And those things can often be somewhat easy to approach from an audience perspective. But as a Blue Devil alum, I do find that the ways that BD innovates are not as obvious and sometimes abstract. And that is something that the judges certainly do recognize and give them credit for. But audiences sometimes don’t.

    Do you guys check the source material for the shows that you review? Ravel? I'm sure that Maurice is great, but you're talking about Wagner's Tristan Chord. There have been books and documentaries made about that chord used in that second movement. I'd definitely do my homework on this one, guys. The sources for this show are pretty fabulous and well worth checking out. Peace! ❤

  • @supersonicstormofsouthwest8816

    That’s a bold statement to say that Crown is not pushing the boundaries enough js crazy when Blue Devils have basically been playing the same type of show every year and still wins. We have not seen a show like this from other corps. Now if we want to talk about how they could connect with the audience more, then that’s different but these guys are really going for something that has not quite been done.
