DCI Cavaliers - 007 (2004)

[dylstick3]

I was there! This show made me want to be a percussionist! Lol granted i was in the 4th grade so automatically to me Pit and Drumline were the coolest. =)

[fennfennster]

I don't usually watch Drum Corps videos, but when I do I watch this video. Sick trumpet solos

[PROtheJOHNis]

Dear trumpet player at the beginning, remain in your clef please.

[euphonium2011]

[ColtsEuph13]

[TheBandicoot16]

[nikki84131]

[persondude2]

this is why Brass>Woodwinds

[DesertFox101]

@persondude2 They've all got their merits, man. Brass may be better suited for the marching field, but that's an awful [sic] broad statement.

[persondude2]

@DesertFox101 haha I understand. I'm a brass player myself so naturally, I'm going to say Brass is just the best. Of course, I don't truly mean it because all instruments are different and have their merits as you said.

This is one of my absolute favorite DCI moments of all time.

[Jrsygirrl]

[ACapellaAddiction]

'04 was a good year for drum corps....

[KameronID]

So was '08

[shwn91]

The Latin Part of this show was completely amazing. The best part of the show in my opinion. They deserved to win that year by a long shot.

[Samwerd2]

@shwn91 I thought they did win?

[shwn91]

@Samwerd2 They did.. I was just saying they deserved it.. Lol.

[dllasfan87]

The rules of what is and isn't allowed in a corps have changed over time. Until relatively recently only "bugles" pitched in G were allowed. Now most corps march "mixed" lines with sopranos in C, most everything else in concert pitch. Long ago, "alto horns" - kinda like concert baritones, but pitched in F - were used instead of mellophones. Point being, bones aren't allowed now, but depending on the association and corps they were in the past.

[drwcubs]

@dllasfan87 I don't know of a single corps that uses sopranos in C. Every world class corps marches Bb trumpets, baritones, euphoniums, and tubas and F mellos.

[bluecoatguy03]

so learn baritone.....i did.

[jjwilke2112]

the drill at the 0:01 is amazing

[sgtkeroro29]

[multibuddhaneo]

This is a drum and bugle corps, not a 'band'.
