11-11-2016 Castle Marching Knights practice for Grand Nationls

[@keyowilson5695]

I feel incredibly lucky and honored to have watched this show live at Grand Nationals. Sophie was definitely the most memorable of all during the ballad, and it still hurts to think she is no longer here.

[@jonathangrider6161]

One of the best shows I have ever watched

[@brianyoung4380]

Jonathan Grider thanks. it was an amazing day also

[@sparklebabyMPC]

I remember watching this live, what an amazing girl. I still think about her, and this show.

[@priscillagrace8397]

I know I’m a little late, but this show takes on entirely new meaning now. I think about this band every marching season, I can’t imagine how much you all have endured. I hope I get the chance to watch you all in person someday.

[@Onyxsurg]

I’m still coming back to watch this to this day. This show. It’s, it’s so powerful

[@brianyoung4380]

I totally agree

[@prestonjones20013]

Coming back to watch this today because I literally can’t hear a band play Gravity without comparing it to this show. God rest her soul

[@emmaytnuel]

Her voice is so beautiful and majestic. Chills ran down my arms when she sang💖what an amazing show

[@brianyoung4380]

Manners Spike Yes it was. :)

[@MeredithAnne88]

I know people who've competed at Grand Nats. Last year I came across your story and learned about Sophie. Her voice soars, even now. She will always be remembered. God bless you all.

[@matthewjreynolds1048]

Sophie will be missed. :'(

#SingForSophie This show has impacted me more than any other show I've watched.

[@michaelmattson2227]

That second movement was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard in a band show

[@brianyoung4380]

Thanks! :)

[@KuwaywayLogic]

Im not apart of this community or band or even boa for that matter yet i heard this song on Instagram one day back in 2019 and learned of Sophie's story. I come back to this video and others of the performance and my heart breaks every time. The passion Sophie exhibited is inspiring and it was such a beautiful performance I wish she was still with us. God bless her and may she rest in piece.

[@samrusso3383]

This is a powerful show! This is truly top notch! Sophie has such a great singing voice. So sad that she's not with us. In our 2018 show, Gravity was our 4th movement, and I would always think about Sophie and this band during that movement. I'm from the Oakmont-Overlook Marching Spartans(Ashburnham, MA)if you want to check us out. 2018 show was titled "Evolve".

[@user-uv7gd5ku4m]

First time watching this, and wow I get the chills. I heard the story about Sophie, and I can just tell how amazing of a person she was. God bless her and her family as we look up into the skies, thank you for sharing this video!

[@snarah6111]

This is my favorite marching band show of all time.

[@sethdavis3552]

[@MuMuCow8]

Does anyone know what the ballad is called?

[@brianyoung4380]

MuMuCow8 Gravity

[@patrickfoit8261]

Where was this? I can tell it's an indoor facility but I can't figure out where, is it somewhere outside of Indianapolis?

[@brianyoung4380]

Patrick Foit Yes just north of Indy

[@sethdavis3552]

UIndy facility

[@nicholaswaldron5616]

That tuba feature tho in wine dark sea omg

[@caludaj]

Is this show available or was it a custom arrangement for Castle High?

[@brianyoung4380]

Not really sure. Sorry

[@Unknown-jj6gp]

Are those opener silks from BD as dreams are made on

[@kealohiho5644]

Is this castle high from Hawaii? lol i know some schools can have the same name and different mascots it’s strange

[@babymanatees9619]

This is Castle HS from Indiana

[@BluesClues2s]

Why is 3/4 of Castle's show music straight out of either Carolina Crown's or Cadet's 2016 shows? This band performs quite well...just a little unoriginal (not the kid's choice of course).

[@gabe6959]

Blue's Clues for Fools *Star Of Indiana 1993

[@brianyoung4380]

Blue's Clues for Fools I have no idea. I just pay attention to my kids band. I'm sure just about every band song or formation you can say that exact same thing about.

[@AlejandroMarroquin-nt8mt]

Blue's Clues for Fools just so you know directors pick music like in January and dci starts like in June so there's no way they would've known it was from these 2016 shows

[@TheFrygar]

Alejandro Torres just so you know the arranger for Castle is the same as Carolina Crown, so they did in fact know what Crown was doing in January (you can tell the arrangements are somewhat similar in those areas). Nonetheless, Castle was very different from either of the corps shows, and this was one of the most memorable marching band shows in recent years in my opinion. Just amazing.

[@shelbyrodgers5465]

Pretty sure some of castles staff march/march or are staff at DCI.

[@MelloBot04]
