I was at the world premiere of this at the Kennedy Center with the Aoelians. Definitely one of the highlights of the evening along with the audience choir and some moments from Alita Moses. Love the dissonance in this one. I appreciate you doing the musical analysis portion. Much better.
One of the things that makes the Tony Award show so special is the performances you see on stage are people who perform on stage for a living! They are absolute pros! And the people in the audience know it too because they work in theater as well. If you can perform brilliantly before a live audience, that’s true talent! And everyone in that audience knows it!
In case you didn't see it, in the description under the video Jacob wrote, " I booked a recording session with Jason [conductor Jason Max Ferdinand] and the choir at Ocean Way Studios in Nashville, and composed ‘World O World’ the day before I flew from London to the studio to meet them." THE DAY BEFORE. What??
@@PiesReacts i was lucky enough to watch in person on prelims, and it was so loud and nice to hear and watch after I had my final run a few hours earlier
Your reserved use of swearing for this is 100% justified. When you're experiencing that physical sensation of the brass in person, it's exhilarating. These hornlines alone, without amplification, can easily hit 100-120 decibels. Seeing a DCI show in person is just as loud as seeing any other concert imo, except to me it's so much more unique of a display due to the athleticism required. I've been a fan ever since 2016 (my sophomore year of high school) and I've gone to each one of my local shows every summer since then. It's such an unbelievable and unforgettable experience getting to watch these corps rehearse and perform. I hope someday you can visit the states and get to experience it yourself!
Keep going man!!! You are scratching the surface!! You need to react to some shows. Do Star of Indiana 1990, 1991. Cadets of Bergen County 1992, 1998, 2000, 2005, 2011. Madison Scouts 1995, 1994, 1996. Just. DO. IT!!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is actually an _abridged_ version of the tap number specifically for the Tony performance. It was a full 5 minutes of tap for their regular performances!
The “warmups” you’re talking about is the end of their tuning sequence. Each years chord progression is the chord progression of one of the major impacts of that years show
Sutton Foster and chorus is essentially doing easy time steps for most of this number. Compare that to the great Ann Miller, here at age SIXTY-THREE, throughout her rehearsal, a recording session, and the final show in 1988: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-E8Ix-ngzOjw.html
I LOVE THIS!!! KEEP MAKING DCI REACTIONS!!!! I suggest you react to the Cavaliers 2002 show frameworks. The visuals are FANTASTIC and that the show was scored the highest ever at the time of 99.150 out of 100 and is currently tied for second highest all time score as of 2024!
glad your enjoying DCI it is a thrill to play powerful music as a brass player. in my opinion its better that the 3 letter "S" word it lasts longer and you only tire at the end of the performance. while your playing your a machine
❤listen to the beginning and this very personal interpretation of Yebba, this girl is a genius, she plays with the notes like no one else, everything she touches is magnificent, Bravo Yebba, which does not take anything away from the two other artists that I also love❤❤
I've been in a hell of a DCI rabbit hole ever since I stumbled across a few videos a month or so back. as a former band and choir member, the level of talent and dedication alone give me chills. then the music turns those chills to tears.
I will say being in the inner circle and being apart of the tuning sequence is different. It will actually take your breath away, and vibrate your bones in ways you never thought possible.
The compression is real!!! The audio cannot handle this LIVE warmup!!! I create music and the difference is when you are in the middle of that arc/circle it becomes SURREAL. Your mind cannot fathom what it is computing. Go to a REAL, LIVE performance. The difference is REAL.
Man, this brings me back. I performed on Cunard Line with Elaine Page. She was a consummate pro, and one of the highlights of my time in the theater orchestra on the Queen Vic. Such a clear musical communicator.
The second singer was Veerle Casteleyn, a Belgian actress and ballerina. She played and sang Jemima in many productions of Cats including in England. But here the 1998 film her voice was dubbed by Helen Massey, as the production team was concerned that Veerle Casteleyn would have a noticeable Flemish accent.
