2018 Carolina Crown UNLEASHES THE BEAST [4K]

Also, marching trombones is just terrible. they sound so much brighter than the euphoniums, they're almost mellos in that setting.

[@chloewenker2212]

I was at a summer camp with a bunch of other kids from across the states for the marching band track they offered and we did a portion of their show with them at the camp, at one point they had all the kids go sit in the middle of their circle and I remember feeling shaken to my core by the sound. You could literally feel the sound. It was insane and a moment I will never forget.

[@johnnabuzby6103]

My son Andrew had that same experience at Western Carolina University in the 2017-2018 marching season. He was a senior in high school and was assistant drum major. He attended a leadership seminar that summer and Crown was practicing there at the time. He showed me the video of his time in their inner circle when they were doing their tuning sequence. Blew my mind how great it sounded! Not only that, but the mountains were ringing, echoing back the sounds. I got goosebumps! That was Andrew's "I can die happy now" moment.

[@xXxDarkSoulxXx]

I was in my high school marching band, (and concert band), 1980-1985. Trumpet for 3 years. At the end of year 3, my junior year, the director asked me to switch to French Horn in the concert band. If you know brass, French Horn differs in many ways from most other brass instruments. I had a difficult time picking it up to a respectable level of play, it took all summer. When senior years band camp rolled around I packed my bags and my trumpet and got on the bus to camp. After arriving, before our first rehearsal, the director called me to the music room. When I walked in I lost my breath. There was no one in that room other than the director, assistant director and two drum majors. I thought I was in huge trouble and thought I was going to be sent home and removed from the marching band, but I had no idea why, I hadn’t done or said anything that would warrant that. What happened was the director placed a brand new instrument case on the table in front of me. He asks me to open it. What I saw on the inside of that case was an instrument that looked like a trumpet on steroids. I was told it was a marching band French Horn, the Frumpet. I believe now days that has been replaced by a mellophone. (pure guessing on my part) After I was acquainted with it for about an hour the director said, “We need 7 more trumpets to convert, you go and get 7 volunteers and be back here in an hour.” I did exactly that. At that point our brass section went from great to amazing. It was a great experience and I loved every second of it.
