What I wish every book 2 would sound like. we had it so good as fans. Take me back!

[@dciaudio]

WOW! This is such an incredible transcription! I really hope you continue to do these more long-form full brass projects, they're really incredible and inspiring. Now all those that want to learn these show segments finally have an opportunity to do so.

this guy steals transcriptions and takes credit for them

@@hardcorehistorybuff5230 he literally is this transcription, for example, is taken from musescore; it's missing the A in the tuba and the F in baritone 2 in measure 9, exactly the same as a transcription posted on musescore his bump "transcription" uses the finals video of bump, with an incorrect early-season transcription originally posted by Ian Bruns a month earlier; they both include mistakes such as not having the bass trombone and tuba being the lower octave, and during the "thou shalt not" repeat section the actual piece is Eb, F Gb, whilst whats written in both is F Gb G; only change was that drumcorpsology changed the tuba part to match during the glisses, as the early version had tubas come early

Spectacular ! My brother and I played with the Kenosha, WI Kingsmen for many years in the 60's !

First time I heard this I knew if they could clean it up they could win...did NOT expect that perfect score for brass at finals though.

ikr and literally on some random dci video too 😭

[@bloonawsome7310]

i think in measure 93-94 there's a trumpet wailing a C the whole time

[@CarlosHernandez-el4oc]

Sounds like a 1st valve lip trill

[@RatSlayerGaming]

Was a trill C-Bb

[@myname-isvincent5683]

I don't believe the Tuba and some of the baritone parts are correct, but that's just coming from a former low brass player.

Amazing! Thank you!

What’s the name of this piece

[@justinmiranda1868]

I FOUND A MISTAKE right at like 1:55 you can hear a 1st tpt hold over a little longer than everyone else

[@nannyg666]

This may be the most emotionally vacant DCI piece I've ever heard. It sounds like something written by a computer.

Tell me you're not a brass musician without telling me you're not a brass musician

[@nannyg666]

@@deanking6405 Yes. For 46 years so far. This was challenging to play, especially cleanly. But that has nothing to do with musicality or emotion. A thing called "melody" is quite helpful in this regard, but has become less common in recent Bands Of America competitions.

[@deanking6405]

@@nannyg666 If you're looking for emotional content, change the lense which you're looking through. This passage is absolutely awe inspiring. To be moving at the velocity they're moving at and to STILL be playing cleanly and at this level is incredible. If that doesn't move you I don't think anything will. If you do play, please get out onto a turf field and start at the goal line and track this passage in a straight line. Once you reach the other goal line, turn around and repeat. About 100 times. For a whole summer. Maybe then you'll understand what's going on here. Maybe.

[@nannyg666]

@@deanking6405 As a former corps member myself, I understand what's going on. and as a current band director, I also understand that while great music can sometimes be difficult, difficult music is not always great. There are many activities in which judging is (and well should be) based on nothing but difficulty level. I would argue that this is not one of them. But whether you agree or not about the judging aspect, audience reaction and appreciation should have more nuance. Any computer program could have written this piece of music, given the correct parameters. Playing it cleanly would be impressive, but it would not make it a good piece of music.

[@noggin6870]

I know people are taking issue with this as, from a difficulty perspective, this was an absolutely awe-inspiring show for the time, but I actually kind of agree. The actual musicality of the written piece (not of the performance) is lacking and it's not super interesting to listen to from any perspective other than the one where you're listening for the challenge of performing what's written. I think that's always been my issue with this show; it's fascinating to listen to from a "holy shit that's hard" mindset, but the actual melodies and emotional content of the show feels either non-existent or incredibly forced throughout the entire show.
