Music Update


Will and I have started working on the Opener (Sunset) for the 2007 Field Show and you can expect to receive some version of that in the next couple weeks, possibly when I return home next week (see below). The Opener is very exciting and VERY fast paced with most of the movement moving at either 168 or 180 bpm. The Opener is also pretty long at about 130 measures, you can expect not to have too much playing in the 2nd Mvt., but from what I have heard from Pete, the Closer (Sunrise) will be lengthy at over 4 minutes which should mean 200+ measures, just a little heads up that when you get the Opener you will want to know it pretty well before you get the Closer later this summer.

Also to any Bass Drummers I have made some minor changes to the 2nd to last section of My Super Sweet Sixteen, so just keep that in mind when looking at that. I will get those changes to you at a later date.

Finally I should have some more information soon for any of you interested in joining us (staff and section leaders) in Sioux Falls on Tue. June 19 for DCI Show featuring the Phantom Regiment who had the top drumline in 2006.
