CAROLINA CROWN PERFORMS AT WESTERN CAROLINA UNIVERSITY'S SUMMER SYMPOSIUM 7/13/23

[@TheGodsMustBeCrazy]

You can tell the battery writing has a very indoor feel. Mike Jackson is awesome. Hyped for this line and staff change.

[@Ace_v120]

man each year, their lead trumpets are getting better and better

[@Bluedog88751]

In early season I always struggle to determine if I’m hearing a lead trumpet or if that tuning is so good that there’s overtones lol

[@tredaviousbowser7931]

I don’t think their music arrangements are made to show off that high range especially over the past ten years but I’m glad they found their moments here and are not too “hero” like smaller corps do

[@jasongrabowski920]

@@Bluedog88751 Its written notes this year. You can hear a grace note(s) occasionally if you listen hard.

[@Falcon2.39-1]

I see gold in the near future

What a perfect venue for this standstill performance ! It really enhanced this already amazing show ! Complex, dramatic, sophisticated...it is like an opera on the field. Congratulations Carolina Crown ✌❤🎶

[@pollochristo565]

Easily best brass. They really should win this year.

[@Siick_GradySHORTS]

Agreed

[@I.AM.ON.MY.WAY.]

Let’s see what the scene looks by finals

[@DennisJohnsonDrummer]

They will have to contend with BD as usual. Drums will need to place very high for that to happen. BD is always clicking on all cylinders with no weak links and the drum line at BD is stronger than last year.

[@noahsmithtcg]

@@DennisJohnsonDrummer bd drums just keeps getting worse every year (not the players just the book)

[@scottrushforth]

@@noahsmithtcg nah this season is bd's best book in years imo

[@DeeboComing]

Boy i would have been losing my shit hearing this in that venue 😂😂 Idk how the crowd wasn't hype.

[@tredaviousbowser7931]

Probably just enjoying it rather than sounding like a howling hyena

[@mattmoatmoot6717]

Because they’re all on their phone recording it to put it on KZbin for ad revenue

This was so much fun to perform!

WAHHHH a video on my birthday AND you can see me bc i’m not behind the podium thank you omg 😭🥰🙏🏼

[@danielparkhurst2532]

I can’t tell the synth from the brass. Incredible intonation

[@anna._olsen_]

wow! this was before they changed the ending. what a cool change that was.

[@tredaviousbowser7931]

I was there! Not from Carolina crown but I was a member of the symposium taken place there

[@iuptubaman]

Wow

[@BluieBeth]

I want to see them SO bad!! I've been to DCI (even just last night) but miss them every time. SO incredibly good!

[@FoldyHold]

Holy shit that closer is bonkers

[@mxtty5633]

8:10-8:37 should've been part of their tuning sequence

[@excidium8729]

I wish you had shut off the cut-off (auto mic lvl)

[@spamaccount1513]

Ballad source material?

[@potatsalad1389]

Tristan and Isolde by Richard Wagner

[@mikepower8208]

Is there a live singer/vocal?

[@BluesClues2s]

It's a Bjork recording

[@LandonLaCross]

Closest we'll get to a studio recording 😭

Are they missing a quad?

[@noahivie1789]

I think two quads

[@scottfye1143]

I can see this being the next Star of Indiana, leaving DCI and doing something more professionally. Their music quality far exceeds the field (including Blue Devils' GE generated cues) to the point of frustration. In my opinion of course. Congrats to these young musicians. Wow!

[@dennismumford6108]

But Blue Devils have much more entertaining shows that are also performed with professionalism. Check out some of the you-tube videos that came out showing when Devils performed in Europe a while back. Very clean and very entertaining.

What exactly is the point of this?

its cool and shows off the music side of the show

Lol. This is comical
