gregorydf01 Posted April 10, 2019 Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 Yes. And it begins. Road to Grand Nationals 2019: “Aria of the Night” featuring Mozart’s “Requiem” and “Queen of the Night” aria from The Magic Flute. Get ready, Vandy fans #mozartmashup #glitteringstars #ariaofthenight2019 Wow! some great contrasts in shows already within LISD South with more contemporary music from Leander vs. Mozart from Vandy. It's going to be a great year, I am getting fired up already! LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanderMomma Posted April 10, 2019 Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 The musical selections have me very excited and intrigued, much more so than usual for a Leander show. I’m usually skeptical about their music selections for what ever reason but they always knock it out of the park. The mix of many genres such as classical, pop, minimalist, brass band, and film score that bands like Leander, FloMo, and Keller have used recently provides, in my opinion, a more creative and exciting production. Rather than just the same overused pieces of classical music (cough cough *vandy* cough cough *marcus*) :/ Edit: I didn’t even see Vandy’s show reveal before writing this but It basically proves my point... Your timing was a bit uncanny. Vandegrift does incredible things with classical music though. It will be amazing no doubt! immortalBlueOrchid and gregorydf01 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmj Posted April 10, 2019 Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 DELIGHTED to hear about these selections from Leander and Vandy. I did let out a yelp of delight when the Leander video confirmed Britney’s Toxic! I am beside myself! principalagent and LeanderMomma 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SATXBandDad Posted April 10, 2019 Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 Impressive choices from Leander. Can’t wait to hear it on the field!! Haven’t heard the music selections from CTJ yet. But between Grand Nats in Nov and Mid West clinic in Dec, we’re going to be busy!! (and cold!!) CTJBandPops and LeanderMomma 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostChoirGuy Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 I'd rather hear them do Robert W Smith's Africa. I've always thought that would be a cool song for a marching show, but the only version I can find adapted to the field was underwhelming. You need to take a good concert sound onto the field and that is something that CTJ could certainly do. CTJBandPops 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefen Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Wow really exciting stuff! Brandeis is in full gear for this next year. This year we are getting a dance company and costumes for our show. Hoping to move up to be able to compete with CTJ and Reagan. Also, getting Jeremy Spicer and Jude boughton as show designers should help! The show is not released yet but music is almost finished. I'm so excited for next year as I think it will be a big step up for us! LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justabandkid94 Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 I'm a little late catching up on this thread, but lots of super exciting stuff to look forward to already for this season. Perhaps its my tenure on here, but also feeling the need to say something... Whoever was throwing shade about bands playing classical instead of contemporary, or whatever, let's not project that unnecessary energy into this forum. Seriously, not even worth the wasted exertion. Every band in BOA cannot be reaching for the esotericism and avant-garde styles Leander/CTJ/FM. if this was the case, y'all would be b****ing about every band striving to be weird for the sake of being weird! LMAO We need the Marcuses just as much as we need the CTJs/Leander/ FM. Let's love on all bands and keep up this positive forum energy we saw at a new height last fall.
