5 years later and we have reached 400k views which are extremely well deserved. Scv’s 5 Fred Sanford in 6 years produced some of the best pits we have ever seen in drum corps and I cannot wait to see them back in competition in 2024.

Ethan’s sportz honestly it’s not just that, Sandi Rennick Is famous for her pit writing. Honestly I prefer watching SCV front cams over any other Corp because of their crazy writing
For someone who played marching bells, marching vibes, marching xylo and a couple years in the early years of the front line we could only imagine in dreams playing in a line like this, with parts like this. Bravo to you all.
I’ve never been so flabbergasted. Legit at a loss for words. I honestly don’t wanna know how long it to clean some parts. Then again it’s probably clean from the beginning. 🙃
I just watched a video and it was the making of one of queens songs and there was a comment in the comment section that was litteraly the same thing as yours. WEIRD!
Nick Loughner Yeah, you did NOT practice 17k hours as a high schooler. You realize you’d have to practice 1.9 years straight to get to that point, right? Don’t kid yourself.
Does anybody accidentally miss the note you’re supposed to hit and play an off key note; or worse, hit both the note you’re supposed to play and the note beside it (right in the middle of the two). It’s worse on bells/xylophone/glockenspiel because you hear both notes and they ring awkwardly.
Whenever I did this in solo pieces at Uni (recital class anyone, wooooo) I would hit the same wrong note one or two more times, and resolve it to the correct note. Most people couldn't tell it was a mistake, they thought it was a dissonant passage.
Kaitlyn Herrera You’ll get comfortable with four mallets in time! It takes a whileee, I’ve been playing mallets for about 6 years and it became comfortable around year two or three of daily practice
Every parent who has had to push pit: *Sees Marimba* My Check Knee Light just came on 😂😂😂 Good job and cool footage! Keep up the excellent work. Music is positive for the kiddos!
Nolan Clapp the approach is something to consider when playing with that series of mallet. The “east coast” play through the bar really isn’t a thing at Vanguard and the mallets are designed with that in mind.
Um... I don't think anything like this was around when I was I band in 01-05. This pit is something else. Good job. ALOT of tools. Imagine the logistics of having the equipment on the field. Amazing. I'm to old to be missing marching band. It's just something about it.
I noticed that as well. My hypothesis is either changing mallets as fast as you have to sometimes in dci leaves some room for inconsistency, or pulling the outer mallets back a little makes them effectively lighter so you don't destroy your two little fingers playing 15 hours a day and can more easily nail all those octaves in the right hand.
Richard Lane that depends on the weight of the mallet, for example, the Van Sice series is really light, it’s probably just the tightness of switching the mallets instead of the actual weight
interesting. the rotations of the mallets would be different, definitely. maybe it has to do with mallet changes or weight (because sandi rennick mallets are heavy as shit). i think it probably helps most with control with double stops and interval control.

I am a brass player but I know exactly what you mean when you said it sounds like the run they did in force of nature, lol
Then you are a well educated and good person.
this is literally the best comment of all time
Rory Hemmings Aye thanks!
Tylenol Seriously though.
6:30 dude how is that even humanly possible. Literal god status
It's not.
Absolutely inhuman
Lord and lots of practice 😢
*Goddess
Th swaying motion she did helped a lot
This is so tight. I saw this show probably 7 times this summer, and wish I paid more attention to the front ensemble
This music is definitely only possible for the best front ensemble out there, good thing you are in it.
Their a DCI band what do u expect
Ethan’s sportz they’re*
Ethan’s sportz honestly it’s not just that, Sandi Rennick Is famous for her pit writing. Honestly I prefer watching SCV front cams over any other Corp because of their crazy writing
It’s really fun too. I’ve been learning it with my friend and it feels really good.
@@ronald6838 even as far as DCI goes SCV’s percussion is on another level
8:30 best marching band/DCI literature ever written. Change my mind.
Adam Pickett I...I can’t
@@ChiptuneDCI correct
Phantom 2010 - into the light. Pit won the Sanford - not the drumline.
@@khaderach19 are you kidding me? Phantom 2010’s drumline was just as crazy
@@ChiptuneDCI mine was that too for a long time but the soli between the two marching baritones and the hit sold me
the beginning to 1:28 has got to be one of the best intros I've heard in any show music. Also, 10:10 sounds SO COOL
yeah what a beat
1:28 - It's "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" by Peter Graham. Cool piece :)
11:40 OH MY GOD MY HEART!!! I CAN HEAR HER SING 🥺🥺🥺
POV: You came here to watch the opener for 110th time.
Thank you. I remember this live at DCI finals. i cried. i still continue to cry every time i hear this show.
For someone who played marching bells, marching vibes, marching xylo and a couple years in the early years of the front line we could only imagine in dreams playing in a line like this, with parts like this. Bravo to you all.
Sure, drums are cool, but have you tried pit?
Yes and I’m he only person who does pit in my high school :/
@@crypticfairy7930 woah how many things do you play
They have their ups and downs, I personal am a drum kind of guy but the pit seems really cool!
Yes pit is so fun
@@crypticfairy7930 So you mean your high school doesn't have a pit?
Probably my 7588484th time watching. This show is so good. Metamorph is a second for me
one of the few times where it's so clearly above the competition. This pit is unrivaled.
The 5 dislikes were Crown and blue devils.
god you can hear from the intonation how hot it must've been
BRO THIS WAS WHEN THEY PERFORMED AT MY SCHOOL AAAAAAAA

SCV ballads always give me the chills. So good!

HI NOLAN
I can't stop watching this 😭❤️
One of the most beautiful openers to date. 10/10
THIS. IS. WHAT. IVE. BEEN. WAITING. FOR!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been waiting so long for this to show up!! So good!!
The most extreme form of jealousy i have ever experienced
this video has me audibly giddy and laughing and is actually making me so excited to play marimba this year. :)
8:23 listen for the snap of the horns omfg
Took me a bit to realize that it’s everybody’s third valve slapping back into place after that intense af horns up. Incredible!
This is incredible. Mad props for the execution. Wow
Sorry, I was wicked early on that crash at 2:21 Ashley...
Tyler Primeaux 😤
Cut
I've watched this video like a thousand times, I never noticed until you said anything! 😆
About 10,000 more hours of practice for me to catch up.
Jeffrey Platt Same here
That's actually not a bad estimate.. I've spent 17000 hours and I'm still in high school
I have decided that I would like my daughter to grow up to be Ashley.
I suppose you better get to it then!
Nick Loughner Yeah, you did NOT practice 17k hours as a high schooler. You realize you’d have to practice 1.9 years straight to get to that point, right? Don’t kid yourself.
Awesome thank you for first hand. I have no ability, and love everything. Thank you for taking me along.
When the ballad comes: **screeches and runs around the house**
Daaayuuumm!! Awesome video. Never seen one of these shows from the marimba perspective.
I know this is all about the marimba and all, but I will never grow tired of the horn snap at 8:28
YESSSSS THANK YOU I’VE WAITING FOR THIS
Of all that badass I think my favorite part was the china split at the end. Congrats on being so badass.
The first minute of actual play could be an Above and Beyond setlist. Keep fuckin' rocking, this was amazing.
The best opening I’ve ever heard
There are just no words. She has some serious chops.
I was front and center on the sideline volunteering at nightbeat, I was literally choking when it started with the pit feature. so good
W.O.W. This show is simply the best.
YES FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITINGGGG
6:26 there are only 2 explanations for this.
steroids, or theyre robots.
Connor McMahon Practice*
@@Chazahc18 practice is their steroids
the casual mallet switch every time the hands get sweaty gets me
Bless you for posting this
YES GIRL! Damn I miss this so much, thanks for posting this
Does anybody accidentally miss the note you’re supposed to hit and play an off key note; or worse, hit both the note you’re supposed to play and the note beside it (right in the middle of the two).

Oh It's a nightmare when your doing chords and one of the notes are wrong. Marimba...
Flipperzz every freaking time 💀
if you play it off as a part of tension then resolution it doesn't even seem like a mistake.
fracking notes is a major no-no in DCI, and this is SCV, you don't get to play if you frack notes. 10x if you're mic'ed up.
Marvelous Mallets- you made me Wonder and Cry-
YES THANK YOU FOR THIS
woah.
Marissa Bowler Right?
unbelievable performance
*I AM VERY MESMERIZED BY THIS*
ok this is my first year on marimba and I’m a sophomore and you make it seem so easy to play four mallet 😔 I’ll keep trying to get to this god level
Kaitlyn Herrera You’ll get comfortable with four mallets in time! It takes a whileee, I’ve been playing mallets for about 6 years and it became comfortable around year two or three of daily practice
Bro same thats how I'm feeling but for xylo
I’m also a sophomore :) we’ll get there eventually we can do it
Oh dang you’re a senior now
Bro I’m also a sophomore on marimba ._. It’s hard but we’re getting there 😅
Ugh that bass feature at 9:48 is awesome
Yes yes yes!!! You are awesome!!
kaleb hascall this is bad. I saw you in the video too. You were bad
?
James C yes I bet you can do better than her. Lets see your marimba cam? Hope you were joking 😂😂
Kris Mason bet you can better him! Where your Cam @? Hope youre a joke!!! xD
Everybody automatically takes the bait lmao I'm pretty sure it's an inside joke
Those arpeggios 😱😱!!!!!
YES YES YES YESSSSSS
FINALLYYYYYYYYYYY
Every parent who has had to push pit: *Sees Marimba*
My Check Knee Light just came on 😂😂😂
Good job and cool footage! Keep up the excellent work. Music is positive for the kiddos!
SO COOL I WANNA CRY😭
Yo I’ve transcribed the entire Dance/ Drum break Section of this video if anyone wants it.
Kent Fuller I'd love to see it, for my own full transcription! I'd be sure to link you in the description, too.
@@TheMTCrew I knew I would find you here
Please
Is there a way that I can get a copy of the vibe part?
Because this is awsome and I want to try it lol
6:25 my fav front ensemble moment ever!!!
Has anyone written down the part for 6:46 I want to learn it! I’ve learned like the first two measures but that’s just from watching and listening.
Damn! She plays with some swag!
the accuracy!!!!! :O
Top notch nice work
I highkey wanna know how many 4002.5s y’all went though... I played with mine for like 3 days and they’re almost done. Like the yarn has been yote 🙃
Nolan Clapp the approach is something to consider when playing with that series of mallet. The “east coast” play through the bar really isn’t a thing at Vanguard and the mallets are designed with that in mind.
@@dansullivanstudios Woah
Dan Sullivan oh ok makes sense
this is dope
Wow! That's one complicated piece 😄👍
Why this appeared on my recommended I do not know, but I’m glad it did
Um... I don't think anything like this was around when I was I band in 01-05. This pit is something else. Good job. ALOT of tools. Imagine the logistics of having the equipment on the field. Amazing. I'm to old to be missing marching band. It's just something about it.
I play mello why am I on this? Oh wait bc it sounds so damn goooooooooood!
#brassgettingjeaulousofpitskillsgang
3:26 my favorite part of every dci show I have watched
Can I have a link to buy the music please!
OUTSTANDING!!! GOSH TEAM!! :0)
Currently trying to learn this. Any tips?
D D Eb D C D has me shook
So good
the opener is catchy af
is it actually ok to leave that much of the outer mallets outside of the hand using stevens?
I noticed that as well. My hypothesis is either changing mallets as fast as you have to sometimes in dci leaves some room for inconsistency, or pulling the outer mallets back a little makes them effectively lighter so you don't destroy your two little fingers playing 15 hours a day and can more easily nail all those octaves in the right hand.
Richard Lane that depends on the weight of the mallet, for example, the Van Sice series is really light, it’s probably just the tightness of switching the mallets instead of the actual weight
both of my instructors for my high school ensembles are in DCI and they tell us to leave about a 1/2 inch out
interesting. the rotations of the mallets would be different, definitely. maybe it has to do with mallet changes or weight (because sandi rennick mallets are heavy as shit). i think it probably helps most with control with double stops and interval control.
I also noticed their perches, or at least this persons seems to be in, creating tension on her hand. Is this intentional or just a technique problem?
as a bd fan yall really deserved this one ; congrats
Anyone know how to get the sheet music to this
Yes.
Being in pit is the best. I’m marimba one at my high school and it’s been fun teaching the freshman and seeing how far they’ve come.
Hey how did you record this? I’m thinking about trying it on our pit
CHS Drumline Cams go pro
How do you have this memorized
9:47 so groovy good lord
why switch to the same mallets, is it for sweat buildup? or the amount of wear on the mallets
pretty sure theyre different mallets just in the same color
This is insane.
Mallets used?
Wonderfull 😍🎵🎶😍
What is that song from at 6:50??? I KNOW IT AND I CANT REMEMBER.
My body is a cage Peter gabriel
Is there any way to access the individual part music sheet music for free? I know it’s asking for a lot😅
It’s on Sandi Rennick’s fb
Jparzik is it?
Michael Allen The opening marimba bit is.
Jparzik could you link me to it?
what mallets??
what mallets is he using?
dtwister 03 IP 4002’s and probably some others from that line
3:09 is so clean
What😃
How you do that?
Finally!
You can hear the horn snap?!
How did they make that horn snap so loud???
they press in one of their valves when they go up
I would get a marimba but I dont think it would fit in my two meter long room
