The fun show is still being decided.
Links below this point are from last marching season:
Here's the competitive band "BlueSound" opener. I'm not sold on the 9 bar intro. As of now I'd like to start on the hit on measure 10. I may have a distant soloist open with a short, echoey, mysterious prelude to the show to lead into the big half note in measure 10..maybe.
The original was written for guitar but this one performed by Tine Thing Helseth is great too.
Here's our production number. Gorgeous. We're doing the same key so you can play along with this version until I get our version on here.
I'll put our version from Finale here as soon as I figure out how to put it in the correct format.
Land Of Make Believe is now the closer for the competitive show. We start playing at 30 seconds into the song. Have fun playing along!
Here's the opener for the War Eagle Marching Band
I provide the original links to influence how we perform it. We should capture the spirit of the original recordings. This is Aretha Franklin. Dion Warwick also did it a great rendition.
Here's the 2nd tune for the War Eagle Marching Band
Black or White is our production (middle) number requiring much movement! This will excite the home crowd.
The is the "Black or White" original. We may do some dance moves from this video.
Here's the 3rd tune for the War Eagle Marching Band
...and the original.
I'm working on getting some of our other tunes here as well. Meanwhile, keep practicing scales!
