The only bad thing I have to say about this video is the soloist's first note. It's simply an awful note on the horn, and he was a bit sharp. The passion and musicality, however, was top notch.
Mello solo sounds flat compared to the 91 version. Also, the whole thing feels "forced" as though they just don't go that extra step volume wise. Seems like they get so loud and that is "loud" for the whole piece. While well in tune it sounds too "mechanical" as if they are going through the motion of playing music.
@mellosrock They were also on Bflat horns. Which have a darker sound than the 91 bugles. Odds are, this camera is better than the one used in 91 as well, which means a clearer sound.
They should re-thaw Pavoratti-he loved this. I say RE- because i think he was already dead when the Turin Olympics came around. If he wasn't already dead, and his voice gone-the weather at the opening would have killed both.
I know I'm spoiled because of never playing G bugles, but to me I feel like the thin sounds they made seem kinda cheesy. And there were so many more balancing issues as well
@buckeyeba I guess it depends on the music you like. Personally I like hearing corps play dark music, e.g. 1995+1996 Phantom, 2010 Crown, SCV's ballad in 2000, and I think the darker sound helps when they play dark music. I'm not saying that I like dark music only of course. Listening to pre-2000's recordings, it sounded like there were more tuning problems on G bugles, though they were louder than Bb (usually). I'm fine with both Bb and G instruments really, just as long as they're played well.
sorry there is no mellophone nor trumpets in drum & bugle corps. only bugles are allowed. there's the soprano bugle, flugels, baritone bugle, and bass bugle. the fingering is the same, the difference is bugle's are made with bigger bell for sound volume since they were originally used in war's when the band went in weapon/sheildless before the actual troop's to clear non military innocent citizen's off the soon to be battle area. i miss my days with dave at phantom. it seem's like forever ago.
@roxicon Bugles are also in G, but DCI made the switch to Bb instruments a few years ago. I'm with you though.. I still refer to everything by the old names.
Actually I dont think this is a mello playing it. Mellos sound more like a horn as where this sounds like a trumpet, but fuller and deeper. Its definitely a fluge. I know this because alot of drum corps soloist use fluges as apposed to trumpets or mellos. And I also know because i play fluge. I play it 7 days a week. I know what it sounds like.
@trptsrule the key was changed to compensate for the switch between G Bugles and Bb/F marching brass. In this case, it was changed to keep the mello fingerings the same *gotta love JD Shaw's arranging!*
@pdoellin Parker, you're a beast of a player, and I'm always thrilled to hear your stuff.
I like how intense the chords are..... My band director in elementary school always would joke about how some chords were more intense than they were meant to be when we were just learning about accindentals and enharmonics, good times *sigh*
I would like to here the solo as a baritone part....it sounded weird having it in a higher instrument. Don't get me wrong it was amazingly played. That's just me though.
Wow umm...That's that there 1990's "carpet turf"...gay...lol sorry but i was watching parkers solo and look over at a contras foot and was like....wheres the grass..........
always in the classical music and I am grateful. I have used videos to teach my paino students so that they can hear the pieces in another venue. Thank you and good luck in 2010!!!!!!
This video was actually recorded in Menomonie, WI, by me, but I was forced to take it down that summer due to a copy right claim. Glad to see it online again. Nice solo, Parker (both years!).
i'm an intense cavaliers fan myself, but i've always admired and loved phantom's musicality and choice of pieces. the classical nature of many of their shows and pieces is just amazing.
someone asked me that in the form of a comment on a video someone ripped off your page. i think it was the rip of the running hornline during "airplanes".
I personally as a contra player it is a Bitch to carry just standing there it is so much better when u are moving around so that is my side so dont get mad at them unless u do play contra so blahhhhh and no i dont play contra for any big marching bands i play contra for a simple HS marching band and we do have long shows so yea i know how it feels i just want to sit and rest lol so yea go contra players :D
RainMan137 - of course the CONTRAS should be sitting, they have to carry the rest of the horn line all the time (previous contra player with Lambertville Volunteers - Sr. corps 1963 to 1966 & 1968
kudos to phantom for always having a top 3 corps in terms of musicality, effect, and choice of pieces. the classical tradition in the corps is something that is a pleasure to watch/hear.
AMAZING!!!! Love Phantom Regiments sound!!! i have always been a huge fan of Phantom Regiment!!!! I hope to march in Phantom Regiment for the summer of 2009 or 2010!!!!
ok arrangement... not great but good... but goodness... SUCH GREAT SOUND! Who doesn't love the dark rich tone here? We need more phantom and elsa's and forever Harmonic and Firebird... such wonderfully done ^_^
Does anyone know how late in the season they got the blue parts on their uniforms that the had at finals? Im wondering how early on this video was, Because if they sound that bad ass playing that in like... june, I wanna here them play it after finels. I think I would have to go kill myself right after words, cuz life couldn't get any better. I would make out with there whole euph line, and im totally straight.
We had the blue baldrics and gauntlets in the show for the Atlanta Regional while we were at McEachern HS, very late in the season. This video is while we were in KY, which was early season (June 26).
Who ever you are, I love you. Anyone who marched Phantom is my hero. Thank you for doing what you do and doing it well. The world is a better place because of you.
I think that the only reason PR can't win is they have trouble assembling a cohesive show. Anybody who hears them knows it's quite clear that they have the most balanced brass in the activity, which allows them to play complicated, but smooth pieces to perfection. The problem is the visual element, whether it's the drill, guard, I'm not sure, it just seems like music is the strong point, the co-ordination and blending of the visual and auditory would give these guys an ideal corps.
I think you should die. Did you see there 2007 show? Twas like and orgasm to the eyes. My favorite part of Phantom is there music, but i could watch that show over and over again with it on mute. The bring the croud in with the bodies and there guard is AMAZING! I would give my left nut to march there. Really, i would, thats an offer.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The music isn't even the strong point always... Sure they sound pretty good standing there, but during shows brass is very dirty. Drumline is fantastic though. But yes, I agree, something is always awry in Phantom's shows.
That would be very stupid of me to say, but anyway....
I just don't like the way phantom sounds, I'm sorry. They push their sound way too far past it's limits, maybe not in this specific standstill performance, but during field shows they do, and their are alot of corps, some not in the top 6, that sound alot better than phantom. IMHO.
I just don't like good, professional music; I'm sorry. It hurts my ears. Maybe I'm gay or something, but I definitely don't like it, and I wish to go to hell, but there are definitely other people who think the same. IMHO
I'm not a professional musician, but I think I know what they do, which is push the sound past it's limits just for the sake of volume. I believe screaming is the same as singing, and that Mariah Carey is equivalent to Renee Fleming.
I'm also a homophobe trying to find a way to justify myself in an activity called music, where half the great minds, particularly classical composers, have been homosexuals, so I think I'll try to smear them. IM(not-so )HO.
as in change their name to Cadets to be able to win a championship....because the Cadets have more than 1 championship....am I able to connect any of the dots here?
The only bad thing I have to say about this video is the soloist's first note. It's simply an awful note on the horn, and he was a bit sharp. The passion and musicality, however, was top notch.

The problem is the visual element, whether it's the drill, guard, I'm not sure, it just seems like music is the strong point, the co-ordination and blending of the visual and auditory would give these guys an ideal corps.

I think you should die. Did you see there 2007 show? Twas like and orgasm to the eyes. My favorite part of Phantom is there music, but i could watch that show over and over again with it on mute. The bring the croud in with the bodies and there guard is AMAZING! I would give my left nut to march there. Really, i would, thats an offer.

The music isn't even the strong point always... Sure they sound pretty good standing there, but during shows brass is very dirty. Drumline is fantastic though. But yes, I agree, something is always awry in Phantom's shows.

That would be very stupid of me to say, but anyway....
I just don't like the way phantom sounds, I'm sorry. They push their sound way too far past it's limits, maybe not in this specific standstill performance, but during field shows they do, and their are alot of corps, some not in the top 6, that sound alot better than phantom. IMHO.

I just don't like good, professional music; I'm sorry. It hurts my ears. Maybe I'm gay or something, but I definitely don't like it, and I wish to go to hell, but there are definitely other people who think the same. IMHO

Translation of the above translation:
I'm not a professional musician, but I think I know what they do, which is push the sound past it's limits just for the sake of volume. I believe screaming is the same as singing, and that Mariah Carey is equivalent to Renee Fleming.
I'm also a homophobe trying to find a way to justify myself in an activity called music, where half the great minds, particularly classical composers, have been homosexuals, so I think I'll try to smear them. IM(not-so )HO.
