August 9 - The hornline plays through several excerpts of their show, while warming up for Semifinals in Indianapolis, IN. Go see them and others live! Get your tickets at www.dci.org/tic... / drumcorpstube / drumcorpstube
This tuba line doesn't get enough appreciation. It sounds as if this hornline just carried around subwoofers, and every note they play is so solid and glorious.
@@jordancampos6864 Crown has an insane low brass! Quite literally the reason I want to switch from trumpet to Bari for marching. I have always loved how projected they sound and how much they support the high brass. They aren't afraid to play!!
BearDoof If you ignore the “This tuba line doesn’t get enough appreciation” part of Brendnn Tate’s comment, you’ll see that I’m PRAISING Crown’s tuba line.
I would love for this horn line to time-travel back to some 1970's corps show at a state fair or something. Just transplant them in time and watch the judges just freaking faint.
Channel Three. One of The best comments I've seen on here. Plus I agree with what you said, I'm literally laughing to myself right now thinking about the 2014 Carolina Crown hornline going against a 1970s Santa Clara Vanguard, it would re write everything!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Can you imagine Santa Clara or Blue Devils from the seventies or eighties experiencing Carolina Crown dropping the hammer can you imagine the reaction of the other Drum Corps or even better yet the judges?
and blue devils had an easier show...what were the judges on that year?? yea they did everything basically perfect but cmon. at least crown shoulve won brass that year
Crowns book was harder that year but everything else was just so outclassed by BD in 2014 it didn’t even matter. Especially the writing, BD2014 is as close to a perfect show we’ll ever get
@@Ace_v120seeing both in person I understand why devils brass scored higher. Their writing was so much better to the rest of the show and those guys literally mastered every single style in the show. It’s so hard to say at this level that one was much better but if you were there you’d understand. I luckily was on tour that year and able to watch 70% of the devils shows and they absolutely deserved a win in ever single category
Look at the recap. The judge on Finals night nailed it. Crown took the content category because they played more notes. BD took the achievement category because they were cleaner. From my seat in the 600 level on the 45 yard line, I would agree completely with the brass judge.
Michael Alsop i personally know the finals night brass judge and i completely agree, He was 100 percent correct in the judging. it's not about how difficult the music is, it's about how clean it sounds
It wasn't just that BD was clean in terms of rhythm - attacks and releases, etc. They were also super in tune and had a big, balanced sound. I loves me some crown, but BD's hornline was ridiculous. Now that Crown has finally proven themselves, got a championship, and are not demoted purely because of politics, I try to think less about who-scored-what, and more about "this is some friggin epic music - let me get this in my soul."
Scheater5 Ridiculous is 1:39 when the bari's, euph's, and tubas put down their instruments and pick up a TRUMPET for the hottest horn licks in DCI this summer. ....and second place for hottest horn lick isn't even close.... Let's review; entire horn line on trumpet or mello, spread out over 35 yards back field, playing the sickest syncopation with the sickest mello runs cutting through the ensemble, and stacking the sickest 3 octave high brass cord I've ever heard. There was no comparison this year for repertoire, because for the hottest horn section of the whole show, most of the horn line WASN'T ON THEIR OWN INSTRUMENT!!!!!!!
To think that the low brass learned another instrument for 1:40 is insane. the baritone and tubas are playing trumpet and mello. AND they sound so freaking good
Others may not feel the same way but I think things like this are inspiring. I strive to be the best trumpet playing I can be and things like this just make me all happy and full of hope. I absolutely love crown and what they do.
Here it is! Much better sound quality than just changing the speed on this video's options. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-107BU8YSqg0.html
Lost respect for DCI and their unregulated or supervised judging many times since early 2000s, but it just gets worse every year. The fact that this hornline did NOT win the Jim OTT trophy was nothing but shady stuff going on in press box in parking lot, at band camps, promised jobs whatever. UNREAL!! This hornline was better than the 2013 hornline yet somehow scored worse and lost the brass trophy. This was the best hornline I have ever ever ever heard live in DCI. Again it comes back to what I believe is DCI feeling pressure from BD especially when BD loses the year before. You can go back to 2000 cadets for instance. Great hornline great show and won brass trophy, however everyone with any ears including members and staff knew that the 01 hornline was far cleaner and more talented than the 00 hornline yet lost to BD in brass at finals. It is just stupid. This Crown 14 hornline how they did not win brass nevermind the show is just beyond me. Please don't tell me how their show is reason they did not win. How did BD win brass like every year mid 80s early 90s with 4th and 5th place finishes? BD should have walked across the field and gave the JIm OTT to Crown. Even if you were a member of BD hornline in 14 you knew Crown was better. Anyone with any musical sense at all knows it.
I fully agree as well. The judging at DCI has gotten worse and worse every year, and this year was no exception. I don't believe that Crown should have won this year, but taking 5th place with a hornline like that... Something is definitely going on behind the performances on those judging panels..
I agreed with you, but you have to admit that Felliniesque was about as close to perfect as you can get. did they deserve perfect GE and visual and nearly perfect music? probably not. but they did an amazing job, and they deserved 1st
wow. totally agree. that 01 cadets brass was amazing. actually, i felt like 00 bd was ahead of the cadets but the cavies smoked both on those g bugles (a tie between Cadets on Bb and Cavies on G). That's why in the end its not about who wins... its about the legacy of your show. I love 1990 and 1992 BD. When those guys that marched those years here that I listen to their music in the car, it puts a smile on their face. Thats what Drum Corps all about: leaving it all on that field for the enjoyment of the crowd and for fans to treasure your work for years. Hell, thats what all art is about.
BD and Cadets should have flipped years on the brass trophy. BD should have won 00 and cadets 01. 00 finals performance of cadets there were cracks and over playing all over. Cadets 01 hornline was flat out the best hornline in DCI that year. Nobody created that clean sound again until Crown in the late 2000s. 90s BD hornlines to me are still the best of all time. From 1992 through 1999 every BD hornline was just amazing to listen to.
I remember getting off field at Lucas oil, rushing to go change and get my snacks to go watch the coats murder this at finals. I had probably watched them perform tilt close to 10 or 11 times that season. But finals was different. Hearing that ballad for what I knew was the last time I would ever hear it in my life made me cry like a baby
Why does the space between those notes in the trumpets at 2:10 sound so crushed? Is it to compensate for how spread out the hornline is during that part of the show so it sounds correct on the field?
That is exactly why it sounds that way. I marched with this group and if you listen to the finals recording you can hear the clarity that is missing in this video. Good ears man!
This is why I love CC. Their shows are so diverse in rhythms and style yet they flow so well. Between the HUGE(well balanced) sound they put out during the whole show(but especially the holds. Like seriously, your getting a cinder block wall in your face every time!!) and the ridiculously fast licks they play, I don't see any Drum Corps steeling the title of my favorite any time soon. I hope CC keeps this up. If they do, I'll bet they'll have a couple more DCI titles before the decade is out.
I sort of feel that Crown is the new Star of Indiana in that they are not really appreciated fully by judges etc. Just think, Star '93 didn't win and that showed pretty much single handedly revolutionized the drum corps we watch today. To me, Crown is at the forefront. For the 2014 show to not be at least top two, crazy! For them not to win in '09, nuts! They will break through I hope, but they may have to do something drastic and unexpected. Don't misunderstand me either, I'm not hating on other corps' either, they are all awesome and deserving of their awards. Lord knows the Cadets were pushing the envelope for awhile too
Percussion kills them every year not that they are bad drumline they just need to bump them up to top 4 drumline and they will start winning all the time .
As a trombonist, its sounds super intimidating. But daily repetition of scales and arpeggios should help the patterns stick under the fingers. That's what I like most about Crown - their insanely technical passages.
I think Bd deserved the win in 14, but no way in hell did they deserve the Jim Ott. Crown 14’s is unbelievably clean, I’m unable to put in words how perfect this is. Crown definitely got robbed in that sense by poor judging.
ELDLtenors While the judges definitely know what's up with their decades of experience and whatnot, there's crazy amounts of politics inside and outside the judging community. Ever wondered why it takes years for the top 7 corps to drastically rearrange placements while everyone else fluctuates on an annual basis? 2014 also happens to be the first year of a modified judging paradigm.
This to me was the best crown hornline of all time! The show was poorly designed, but this might be the best hornline ever in DCI . Really was that clean and good .
The highest written pitch was a D above the staff and to my knowledge we never had any members play a double G...if you're hearing a pitch higher than the top D it's likely just an overtone. Notes in the trumpet chord were D, B, G, A. Since the low brass members were all playing trumpets here these notes were stacked across 9 or so trumpet parts starting with the 2nd line G and going up.
At this point, I’ve watched this video a bajillion times, but I can’t help smile when Harloff cuts off the hornline and looks out at the crowd at 2:28. His face is basically saying “yeah that’s right, my hornline RULES.”
Miss the great days of Real Drum Corps ! THE 60s era ! There was 1000s of corps ! Most local hometown corps ! Go Mariners Kenosha Kingsmen GO ARMY RETIRED
