Kinda crazy watching this now that I'm marching drumcorps. This is one of the videos that got me into the activity.

👍 Which corps and what do you play?

One soprano always has to do the "high mom!" ;)

Wow there nothing more pure than the Blue Devils Brass Sounds

The low notes, peddle tones, when done correctly, help to relax the chops (lips) and keep the player ready to play. My band does it all the time after a warm up or during to make sure we don't kill our chops before a show.

Can't help but to like it :/

Those contras though

This is just INSANE!!

ohhhh my good congratulations

I remember being here :)

That cutoff at 1:27. You could convince me my speakers had just turned off.

Ohhhh Wowwwwww

Because that's what us sops are about :)

We have multiple staff members for the brassline, usually one for each section. They usually trade off on warm-ups and then after the warm up is done, they'll do a chord progression that they like, and you can tell which chord they want by the shape of their hands. Notice how when he moves his arm around the arch his hand is in a different shape each time.

I thought the chords were just always in the same order

@@justinjohnson4278 In a chord sequence yes the chords are always in the same order, but the sequence is dictated by the hand shape.

@@justinjohnson4278 For the one that James does it's ad lib, so they can switch up the order on us, but usually 90% of the time it's the same

and of course a trumpet stuck out at the end like one does every time in every ensemble... GO CONTRAS!!

i wont more!

It's perfectly fair.There's nothing stopping you from learning a brass instrument. I marched a top corps with those who learned a brass instrument just to march. Drum and Bugle Corps have their history in the military where there were only drums and bugles, with color guards to hold flags . They would march into battle while playing music to encourage troops to fight on. I'll send you links explaining it further.

So together ;-;

MATT WILLIAMS!!!!!!! 15!!!!!!!!!!

F'in Nasty... Seems like the BELLS are about to fall out - DAYEM!

For the brass players, what does the low peddle tongue type playing do technique wise?? Sure it sounds cool but are they just showing off or is it useful? AMAZING WARMUP!

true. I HAVE always wanted to play trumpet...I don't know if my band director would want me to though, or let me. I guess i'd have to ask once concert season starts then

Natalie Clausel don't be afraid, im a couple years late but you shouldnprobably buy a tromba plastic trombone to start and then if you like it buy a metal one.

THATS MUH BOY! MATT WILLIAMS!

In many forms of jazz it is considered tasteful for the lead to hang the release :-) fluv it!

lmao its all good man too funny

Personally my preference is bands that play with a jazz band sound and follow some jazz band concepts.

how do u put this on a coby mp3 player do you buy a windows device or ipod

I would welcome you to my section Nat.

yes, very much so. i'm a freshman in high school; what do you expect?

lol i do that in Jazz Band only cuz I cant play high notes very loud, so you can hear it a bit at the end.

What is the song that they played at the end?

What is the name of the lost song they play? What show was it from?

Pretty sure they're just pitch bends.

That was a metronome. The assistant drum major had it there temporarily to give him the tempo of that movement. Please don't type in all caps it scares me.

I don't see any woodwinds :(

oh I didn't know the full name. and that's just depressing

You must be new here.

train cords???

my friend Adam and my boyfriend Braden are gonna help me learn, and they're trumpet players. Killough doesn't really like woodwinds so he might not teach me himself, and I don't think it would be a good idea to even ask him. (he's not exactly the calmest man alive) and I can't afford lessons. They're like $15 for a half hour or some shit. and Eaton is the percussion guy, and Jones is the woodwind woman. not exactly many ways to learn except for a sophomore and another freshman -_-

Trumpet >

we do that progression exercise in school

well that's not fair. why?

damn...the black guy holdin the metrinome?

there are some really slow people commenting on this....smh

:34 made me giggle like a girl

Keep the camera still omfg

When I was in high school, many years ago, both my brand directors were very cool about me learning multiple instruments. You could always learn and not play it in concert band until you've gotten better. If your band director has time, perhaps they can show you some good technique. If you are absolutely serious about playing, I'd suggest getting a few lessons so you don't develop bad habits.

I gotta play tuba and percussion (since they were separate classes) and I was even the section leader my senior despite only joining halfway through my junior year, it was the best. The advantages of knowing a lot of instruments is it gets easier and easier to learn another one

No... he's actually correct. And who cares how big their egos are, they have the rings what do you have?

It's not like they can't back up what they talk. If you're that close to being a demigod trumpet player, it's okay to have a big ego.

not really... just BD trumpets do it to show how big their egos are...

Wait, are you saying that it's abnormal for jazz trumpet players to holdover intentionally? What? Dude, get out

Nope. It's tradition.

just not as extreme
