That flute solo 😍

Wow... amazing how much they improved balance between sections in a week before BOA. This performance was "sloppy". And notice I say sloppy in quotes... but compared to their astounding BOA performance, this sounds a little off-kilter.

I know of a band that's either slightly bigger or about the same size as this one. The color guard is a lot bigger than this as well. No one ever records their shows though. :( But this is still one of my favorite marching shows of all time.

no weapons in the guard???

The color guard is amazing!! You guys looked amazing and gave me chills over how great you all looked!!-PCN Color Guard

Wow...I don't think that it should be about placements, just entertaining the crowd and giving everyone that came a good time

Broken arrow and Tarpon were my favorite!

why no tenors?!?

This was an awesome show at grand nationals, you all are really amazing perrformers!! -Tarpon Springs Mellophone

Hmm, this show seems very familiar....

Amazing visual. Love this highschool!!!! Should have won first, they deserved it.

In boa I mean

Loveeeeee love love the crescendo in the beginning. Amazing, you guys should have won first.

I was so mad they didn't win. 10:48 literally gave me chills.

Such a great show too bad they didn't win

my brother is in the pit i cried when he came home from indianapolis!!!!!!! he did so good it was a bummer that they didnt win. CURSES ON JUDGE 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i got tingles while i watched this but i didnt with carmels

Believe me they're alot of blacks Latinos and Asians

lol. band geek mode. i screamed "NO RUNNING IN UNIFORM!!!!!!!!!" at my computer and then i was like "Wait....that's part of their show o-o"

The reason they didn't win is because at the beginning they did the most amazing hit in any marching band show, but because it was so amazing it made the rest of the show boring musically. nothing in the rest of there show musically compared to that hit in the beginning. As apposed to Carmel who consistently gave an interesting musical performance throughout there show. plus they were so focused on setting there show around there props that the drill wasn't as exciting as Carmels.

Medea is great :)

I'm glad I got to see this show at Pasadena Bandfest. If Bandfest were a competition, they would have easily won. Best show I've ever seen, and I've seen many of them.

They don't make an award big enough for this performance. Just saw this at bandfest 2012 in Pasadena. Wow. Stadium was virtually silent.

Broken Arrow, yet again you amazed me. Coming from a small non competitive band (even though I want to be in a competitive band), I eat my heart when I see bands like this. I wish I was in a band with so much dedication and respect. A job well done. You guys should all be very proud of yourselvs! Go BA!!!

Oh and also, good luck @ the rose parade.....we did it this year it was a blast!!! and don't be nervous, you'll do great!!!

I'm from American Fork Marching band, (Utah) we are the best 5A band in the state...but man...you guys freaking rock!!! GO BROKEN ARROW!!!!!!!!

Haha, yeah. I see your point. But I do think Carmel deserved to win. Their show was first and foremost about the music---paired with a very well-executed visual package and general effect. BA puts effect first, in my opinion, and this year it wasn't quite enough. It's gotta be about the music first.

I bet no one noticed the bass clarinet in the front throwing a mysterious object into the crowd at 11:10

it means please....

Can someone PLEASE tell me what plz means?

can someone PLZ tell me the music they used in their show? its just amazing!

That hit.....gets me everytime and i performed it all season....

ahh ok thank you

my first time seeing this band and wow. for a few moments i thought i was watching DCI

how can the put together a complicated show like this with also being a track team? how is it possible with such little time?

If I had a dollar for every amazing thing that this band does, I would be a millionaire

The guard! Such precision at the first hit! Wow. Truly the best in the nation!

Music 1 (MPI) placed them 5th.

What happened with the music judge?

I wanted to see this show badly, but my group was on after them so we didn't have a chance. Looks awesome.

Whats the show about

Should have won.

Haha! Look at the wind player slide to 2 inside the Side 2 45 at 6:52

Had Music Performance Individual judge (aka Music 1 or MPI) not screwed them over, they would have one. The 2 music scores show 2 totally different shows, Music 1 was a 17.50 and music 2 was a 19.40. Crazy.

I agree. I was originally rooting for Carmel to win (hint: I'm from Indiana) but then I saw this video and well, they deserved to win. This is now one of my favorite high school shows of all time.

They should have won Nationals. Don't get me wrong, Carmel was great, but Broken Arrow was better. Dang you music judge 1. WHY!??!? Lol.
