The Cavaliers - 2011 - "The Planets - Mars"

[@DarmokandJiladLLP]

Their 95 show still stands as one of the best of all time.

[@collinsh580]

I had to play this on my first year of marching band and along with this, jupiter and fanfare for the third planet (all on my very first marching band year, 7th going to 8th)

[@dylanmc25]

Same

[@SHCharge]

My marching band played this as part of our show but we did a instrument switch all the trumpet players put down there trumpets and got either a baritone or mello and it was amazing!!

[@RockstarDaniel]

That horns up was perfect.

[@chaarlesbartholomewtheiv9911]

It's Mars from the planets by Gustav Holst

[@Kamoojaan]

Cool

[@Youngredfield]

Their drum major that year is now my school's trumpet and marching tech.

[@Irishpineapple97]

So pumped to be playing this and Jupiter this year!

[@ferrari575guru]

from their epic 1995 winning show

[@lorak842]

The Cavaliers are awesome!

[@johnythanj]

Santa Clara has mad history. They deserve every bit of respect they have, the vast amount that i have for them and their corps history is beyond any other corps

[@dubbacdubbac]

holy shit the blend and balance :O

[@Pattern51lover]

Love the Cavies

[@homestar2112]

playing - EPIC! arrangement - ok

[@myvoiceisbutawhisper]

These are my rockstars.

[@nickniehaus1763]

This made my life😊

[@iDuhNguyen]

We're playing this song for concert season lol ...

[@imtheblurryone]

My school band will play Mars for this upcoming season and I am willing to hear how we will make of this masterpiece

[@milescingolani]

I live in jupiter, so our theme is well Jupiter lol

[@GreenPurpleStuph]

Vanguard is doing this piece, with JD Shaw(used-to-be phantom staff) arranging it :D

[@jjh2456]

GreenPurpleStuph yeah...it wasn’t the same. The Cavies own this.

[@vegascorbin]

Marksmen (Seattle Washington) Marched this in 1975

[@Bootscv11]

they should play this upside down.

[@Regal_Two]

This just doesn't have the same feel to it that 1995 did.

[@drummerforlife2649]

Regal Two maybe because it's not a piece that they have worked on for 3 mouths. Lol

[@ImVee10]

It’s also step lower due to the Bb horns. Incidentally, ‘11 was their last caption win (drums).

[@thunderman21]

@@ImVee10I have to say the 95’ writing drum wise was beefier… and I got to watch the 95’ show live.

[@renorailfanning5465]

If you can listen to the 1985 show, you will be blown away. It starts with Also Sprach Zarathusra (sic) and then segues into Mars. I'm going to learn how to post videos on KZbin and then post the '85 show.

[@maldororyoga]

Todd Peterson please do! This would be SO appreciated by so many people!

[@broccotacox3]

Why does this have 5 dislikes??

[@yeti4269]

Nowhere as good as the 1995 version when they won it all

[@sarahlaoyan]

I need new pants.

[@johnythanj]

HOLST!!!!

[@MayTheSForceBWithYou]

I need fresh pants

[@Trumpetcore]

@11BassClarinet Spring High School??

[@jeetlebuice3656]

Their 2017 version was better

[@tbonetime3568]

I want to hear Carolina crown do this. Or bluedevils

[@jjh2456]

Tbone Time no. Crown needs to do Jupiter. Also, nobody does Mars like the Cavies.

[@MagnoliaPercussion]

...Not really... It's technically the same piece, but a very different realization of it :)

[@braxenb2242]

So im in 7th grade and i was wondering if i should do marching bans when i get to 9th grade

[@BrockSawyer]

braxen b Absolutely. It’s such a rewarding experience. You will create memories that you’ll have for a lifetime. Also check out drum corps, which is what this is. It’s a different level of competition and excellence. Do it!

[@josh-kr1vh]

I’m a freshman and marching band changed my life not even kidding

[@braxenb2242]

Brock Sawyer it does sound fun

[@blxoom]

@@BrockSawyer what if im a clarinet? will i still get that feeling? clarinets dont really get enough justice, we just hide behind the spotlight of the trumpets..

[@cavalierfan2008]

@400adub I wouldn't go as far as to say that 89 beats any other show in DCI. I love that show but I don't think its the best show in DCI history. Its all about personal opinion if you ask me...

[@thesurferdude01]

Dat pit

[@stephensmith6790]

I miss the "real" dci

[@timetodie571]

Gustav Holst anyone?

[@georgebush8226]

VANGAURD!

[@austinhernandez2716]

This band sounds amazing, but why didn't they march here? That's just sad...

[@BrockSawyer]

Austin Hernández This is the Cavaliers Drum & Bugle Corps. They were performing an exhibition after they did their actual marching show. Check them out on KZbin. They are outstanding. Along with The Blue Devils, Bluecoats, Carolina Crown, The Cadets, Phantom Regiment and Santa Clara Vanguard.

[@TheStickCollector]

Do they seriously have 12 tubas?

[@charleyhibschweiler4555]

Tempo is WAY to fast even for marching band

[@BrockSawyer]

[@jokeyy1116]

my marching band did mars and at one point we were at 160bpm its funnnn

[@utamav]

1995 was faster

[@JohnSmith-zi9or]

This autoplayed and I was like ... wow this sucks. Then I realized it isn't the 1995 version and those are crappy band instruments. Horrible sound. Boring. Slow. NOT exciting.

[@jjh2456]

John Smith it’s a piece that is synonymous with the corps because of 1995. This is just them doing one of their hits like any artist does when they tour.
