Fugue In G Minor (The Little) | Carolina Crown 2017

[@yungtwiz]

I don't think people realize this is the greatest opening hit in all of DCI

[@rylandcook5301]

Miles Keaton it’s a little comparable to their 2008 show, but nonetheless they’re both fucking insane

[@loganlassiter1409]

Toccata and fugue hits hard

[@Zachary-ro6eg]

Crown 2011

[@nathan-qo9rj]

Miles Keaton vanguard 2018?

[@truisticprince]

IThe opening hit to scv scherazade 2014....

[@jakemf1]

Holy smokes! They way they move from the fugue in to those chords and the ending-Stunning arranging!!!

[@riverstoltz2676]

jakemf1 EXACTLY

[@micahneese4808]

I'm pretty sure it's they switch from the little fugue to a variation of the tocatta in d minor(listen to it) even ending on a Picardy third. A true tribute to the master.

[@iAmNovaFilms]

Especially the contra part

[@contestant2964]

Carolina Crown has the best horns in all of DCI...

[@jakebarrera534]

Indeed, they do

[@kaylagerhart9169]

fr its just.. too good😫✋🏻

[@shep7544]

Yeah that's kinda their thing

[@kevinjohnson5210]

Look, I generally like the Carolina horn lines; and coming from a Regiment horn alum - we won horns, won marching, won GE, we won CG, and I marched 4 years: I have heard phenomenal BD horn lines - and sometimes the BD horn lines (on an off night) that were poor at executing. In DCI there are ALWAYS a few very good horn lines, and to catch any one of them on a hot , hyped up night is a gas, but please, just like everyone else...Carolina plays out of tune, they phase, they have has attack and release errors, commit mental errors, sacrifices quality for volume JUST LIKE OTHER lines. They possess no magical God bestowed talent, it is all just hard work. BD, Regiment, Cadets, Carolina, have all got some incredible players - and some plain average players too. The magic is getting "average" to sound like a PRO. I don't care for Michael's arranging style, or the repertoire choices, but the lines usually play quite well (often times too percussive for me), but I like their execution overall. Every season, and often times every show, some horn line will play above their ability, and some will have a bad night. If all these lines only had to play in a semi-circle and not march, the top 8 lines sound pretty darn good at the end of the season. Making a mistake is nothing _ The Canadian Brass makes mistakes every night ---- but failing to create passionate, soul moving music...now that is a crime.

The transition to the Cm9 is so satisfying

This and Rach Star opening will forever be the best

So nice to realize that crown can use a part 6 years later and Make it fit so well into the show.

Chills

[@BashJP]

0:45 I was like damn this soon?!

[@jjh2456]

Sébastien JeanPois yeah the whole point of the crown set that early was to subvert expectations and “deconstruct” a Crown show.

[@Rainmaker65]

I haven't listened to this specific hit for quite some time. All I can say is that the goosebumps started early...my brain took over and about two seconds before the "God Chord" hit, I was starting to feel the bumps. Awesome hit, and it served well, with a few modifications, as a reprisal/closer. Crown for life!

[@chrissalazar7650]

Muted out the damn fireworks yessirrr

[@anthonyhalstead3925]

Crazy that they had the crown set so early in the season (presumably July 4th) considering they didnt add it in 2023 until Allentown iirc

[@SlippPlays]

YES YES YES YES YES!!! One of the best opening impacts in DCI!!!

[@hoscalemadness]

I got chills out of my mind, holy crap.

[@carolusmagnus7116]

[@pandrium]

my band is struggling to play fugue in g minor sitting down how the hell is this possible

[@Redman147]

This is my fav hit from Carolina Crown, but I can't get the entrance of the drumline and tuba out of my head. For some reason it always sounded, to me, that they came in frantically and too fast for the first bar or so before settling into the correct tempo. If what I'm hearing is in fact the case that, to me, would be the main reason they didn't win in 2017. If their entrance was smoother and more relaxed this would've been a hit for the ages.

[@GH_percussion]

This looks like an early season recording. Not everything will be perfect in this. Unless you’re talking about them during finals, then disregard this.

[@ARCtrooper8248]

​@@GH_percussion sorry to bring you back after so long, but the sound of the higher brass is slow to the hands. This also happened in the Vanderbilt show, so I think it was a core problem for the group throughout the season. Even in the final recording it sounded like either the high brass was slow of the low brass was quick, and by the video of here and vandy, id say it was the high brass.

[@chrishooge3442]

[@ExAnimoPortugal]

Why is Bach great? There are many reasons, but, chief among which, the fact Bach's music sounds great with any arrangement.

[@Brian-oq4hq]

Isnt this part of their warmup/tuning sequence as well

[@stephenbeck7222]

Well it’s an awesome sequence so I don’t see why not. A lot of ensembles (e.g. high school bands) use Bach chorales as warm ups, albeit much less exciting than this.

[@triplebeargames]

Sooo Hollywoodian... really horrible. Only Americans can appreciate this kind of stuff. Poor JSBach.
