what you hear before you enter heaven

Blue Knights take over the show with one of the most heartwarming closers of all time, Fly to Paradise - Eric Whitacre.
This piece has been stuck in my head rent free for a month. Sorry if I get it stuck in your head!
Original Video: • Final Run Through Blue...
Notation edits because I was originally writing the start of the season version: pickups into measure 5 in the Baritones start on 4. Trumpet entrance in measure 36 starts on beat one, not 3.
DCI 2022 Videos coming soon!

I’m a drummer by training but damn - a World Class brass line at full tilt at the end of a season can bring tears to my eyes every time.

One of my favorite Blue Knights closers, thanks for the transcription!

What year was this one?

[@benh224]

I went to this HS. I used to enjoy watching the "Free" show every year because the bands needed fields to play and practice in. Plus we got to watch the actual DCI show for free because our school had volunteers that gave water to the bands after they got done performing.
