Ayala HS Drumline 2022 - Show Music - 10/22 CSBC Irvine

[@AznAfroMan513]

something so wholesome about seeing alumni that have gone and achieved great things in DCI/WGI come back and teach the next generation

[@lij2015]

Really nice use of the Tom line with the spocks and various aux parts, always a fan when they can contribute musically to the show in an audible way! :)

[@SEAJustinDrum]

This is ridiculously good. All of the players are awesome and deserve mad respect from everyone.

[@therealeikichionizuka]

I was there! I was behind everyone with the rest of the people, but it was probably the coolest drumline I’ve ever seen.

[@clingyo7516]

Dude this was insane, Im a tenor player at my own high school but man I dont know if i could do this, maybe in a few years but this drumline is insane I love this

[@mclaurinemc74]

I’m an instructor at Ayala and man you can for sure play this. Never doubt your abilities

[@mclaurinemc74]

@@thomascostello9116 I would say 6 to 7. The percussion has always been ran like a Drum Corps Percussion. The kids have a percussion class every day and rehearse after school 3 to 4 days a week

@@mclaurinemc74 I appreciate that, marching band is super fun And homie I only plan ti get better😎, but seriously great work, your drumline is phenomenal

[@Griffin그리핀]

This book is so smartly written. Perfect amount of fundamental and more technical writing to balance it out. Pretty guaranteed to have progress throughout the entire season especially will new players.

[@LordChocolateThunder]

Drum tuning is on point. Well done.

[@alanuki8595]

6 basses and room for flubs??? God your percussion sections is massive!

[@PANTHERPISS69]

Bassline isn’t a filler position at all though.

[@alanuki8595]

Yes, but you always have 5 basses, you go up to almost 5 tenors or snares before you even think of adding more basses

[@johncoyle8551]

@@alanuki8595 Ayala has never had huge numbers outside of percussion so they're probably at a point where they need to limit battery spots so they can avoid overpowering the winds without losing out in their intensity. More flat drums just adds likely unwanted volume, while a 6th bass drum can add to the sound musically.

iPhone 14 Pro and a zoom IQ6 mic

@@Yerrr647 I’ve been a fan of theirs for a number of years. Seems like Rick does a great job with that program. They have their own identity and aren’t afraid to post videos showing their progress throughout a season. And their books always look fun to play.
