Crown 2019 Tuning Sequence: DCI Finals

[@benhaushalter5067]

Pulls out infinity Gauntlet. Like 10 seconds later he is saying no distractions. Either way I aspire to be this guy. I always have.

[@michaelmeyer2725]

Ben Haushalter I would love to pick his brain about brass playing. I had good instructors when I marched but Matt is in a league of his own, plus everyone buys into it!

[@stephentodd7194]

@@michaelmeyer2725 the fundamentals of what Matt Harloff teaches at Crown is the same base of what was taught at Star of Indiana by Donnie Van Doren it's just been refined to the Nth degree. Lots of brass people that have been through those programs teach the same thing he does at other corps and marching bands, myself included. I have old copies of the brass manual from corps I have marched in the past if you'd ever like to take a look at it.

@@DeletedUser73926 it is different than a tongue stop. Sometimes corps will use a tongue stop for particular phrases but usually they will breathe in together at the end of a note for a unified cutoff.
