Sioux Falls Roosevelt Marching Band — "Immortal" 2009

This is Sioux Falls Roosevelt's show this year, titled "Immortal." It is a show that tells the story of Beethoven's life, from his amazing compositions to the devastation of going deaf. Enjoy and comment!

By the way, this is a recording from the music software used to compose it, not the actual band. We'll sound much better on the field!

I know!! It's actually kind of crazy how we can put together such a great sounding-show with so few people! But with a great idea from Mr. Macklin and a lot of practice, we end up doing really well by the end of the season! Sometimes I wish I could just hear what it's like to play in a huge band, but Roosevelt's where it's at! =P

You should put chicken dinner on there too. haha

[freebird000000]

I would, but I didn't get that DVD. I figured the one from St. Louis would be pretty good quality. But I guess I could get my hands on a copy and post it. =P

[freebird000000]

Well, St. Louis was pretty successful. We placed 16th, only 0.7 points out of finals! But it was our best performance of the season and we were all very happy about it. I might be posting our St. Louis performance once I get it in the mail.

[freebird000000]

Well right now we're preparing for St. Louis this weekend....and a few of our members are coming down with H1N1. Including our backfield drum major and lead trumpet. So wish us luck....lol.

@freebird000000 Hey, don't forget that we lost a third of our French Horns too!

[freebird000000]

We recorded a DVD a couple weekends ago, and I'll probably post that on here once we get it (if it's OK with our director, that is). I'd say....three weeks? Somewhere around there.

Do you know if anyone is going to put up a video of you guys performing the show on youtube? I haven't been able to see it yet and I REALLY want to.
