It's hours before I go on to perform my last state show 2018 (...for all)and watching this 2010 show just reminds me why the duncanville band is truly like no other band . It's an honor to carry that legacy on last time . Beautiful music btw
@shernandez6636 the random flute marching with the drumline is because the drill writter didn't write enough spots for the moves that follow. I wondered the same question being in the battery. Wow. This show absolutely brings out so many emotions, the way the music brings out emotion is amazing. I loved being a part of this show!!
"The Duncanville High School Marching Band has been the UIL State Champion in 1986, 1990, and 2002 and is the only 5A band in Texas to advance to the State Finals every year since 1988.The Wind Ensemble has been the Region XX "Honor Band" every year since 1980 and has placed in the State Finals of Honor Band competition eight times culminating in their selection as the 1998; 2004; and 2008 TMEA AAAAA Honor Band. Duncanville is the only school in Texas to win three 5A Honor Bands.
What a stirring show. You can tell the students worked very hard and take great pride in what they do. Congratulations. I would definitely consider this school or feeder schools to do my student teaching in a few years. You have a quality program.
this show is amazing...i love the Duncanville High School Marching Band...we are just the few bands that stick to script...(or judging scores) Best show ever right here
Congrats to the D'ville Band for two awesome performances on Nov 2nd! Great show! The pre-show was beautiful and by the end of this finals performance I had tears in my eyes. The marching and playing were awesome all around!!! AND the Guard/High Hats were simply AMAZING!!! That was one tough competition, but in the end those kids played and marched their hearts out. What an awesome way to end the 2010 season! Kudos to the 2010 Duncanville Band and Staff!!!
this is my band and i was here it was so much fun and i'm glad to have earned 3rd place in states!! duncanville high school band "where pride makes the difference!" :D
@SHTRILL Don't you love how every selection is followed by "arranged by William Pitts"? oh and Mvt 3 I think was solely Mr. Pitts with some input from Teal
I think that final chord is the same one that Phantom Regiment played at the end of the "Into the Light" show. Very similar ending with the band all flowing to the back corner of the field.
Lawd ... The thirsty haters though . No one cares , just because DHS has the courage to do something different from the rest & truly focus on the marching and music , doesn't mean we don't have what it takes .
Y'all should have taken this show to BOA. You may not have had props, but you had alot of GE, which would have done well there. I bet this show could have placed in the top 3 at BOA Arlington and in the top 6 at Super Regionals in San Antonio
Why do you guys keep referring to "no props"? It's not like they make any difference in UIL anyway. If you thought that going without them was some sort of disadvantage, perhaps you should look at that.
@1385867 First of all, when they announced the placing, Duncanville was at the bleachers where they were getting their picture, you may have been "hooting and hollering" but from the sideline seats, it was a polite clap. And also, why the hell would "big shot music composers" be at a marching contest? Do you even know who composed your music to fit your show? And yes out of the 9 other bands there, I thought yours was most boring.
@1385867 if you want to hear a real version of the song, go on itunes and look up "Vetrate di Chiesa" Church Windows preformed by the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.
@pineapple2013 I totally agree with you and i was thinking that very same thing. LD Bell has an amazing Marching ensemble but Duncanville seems as if they were more genuine and realistic. The music in my opinion was even executed better than Bell's. Unfortunately, we're not judges.
I won't argue your opinion nor your view on props, but Duncanville is in no way a newcomer. If you look on the Duncanville Wikipedia page, they have been in state finals since 1988, so they kinda dropped the ball on a nearly 25 year streak.
@1385867 " Im pretty sure we were quiet as a mouse trying to see if we acually got the top 3 acually." Obviously I wasen't clear enough...you mean to tell me when they announced the 3rd place spot, Duncanville was a quiet as a mouse? That would be a negatory...
@1385867 If by "better and dramatic" you mean slow and sleep inducing, then yes you are spot on...After comparing the two, this version makes me think of a old decrept priest slowly making his way to the alter to give a long winded sermon that no one will listen to. The other version sounds like two epic armies about to fight in a bloody crusade. Epic battle>slow decrept priest
@DentedTrombone42 it was a simple typo dude... Calm down; but back to my point; can we at least agree that WHAT EVER HAPPENED HAPPENED AND WHAT EVER WILL HAPPEN WILL... aaand THAT EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO THERE OWN OPINIONS?
I thought you guys were really good yesterday, and was sorry to see you did not make it to finals. It is sad to see that focus is shifting from marching to who has the better props, or who spent the most money on a "production", or like in the olympics if you are a newcomer who has "not paid their dues" you pretty much have no chance of even be considered by the judges. Some that did not make it to finals should have just as some that did shouldn't...buy hey that is just my opinion.
@sk8erboi42992 well I was apart of this band this year (freshman) and no one ever said how contributed to Mvt 3 more..... Just sayin.... And I've heard some music for next year...... AND HOLY SHIT!!!!! WE'RE GUNNA ROCK THAT SHIT NEXT YEAR!!!! it was just amazing sounding!!!!! PENDING IF OUR FRESHMAN R SNY TYPE OF GOOD NEXT YEAR:/
Hello!!! Imma dude! And i didn't stop posting cuz of @DentedTrombone41 I stopped cuz I was done with @DentedTrombone49 bs... So yeh... And again... IMMA GUY!!!!!!!!!!!
@1385867 Look up "coppell 2009 boa" on RUclips, then compare the tempos that you played St. Michel and the tempos we played it...Like I said, it is my opinion about what you did with it, in my opinion I thought it was slow.
@sandwitcheater9 Well look who can read the previous comments, maybe you can not get involved as you wont stop me from posting to people who initially responded to my previous statements, by the way, what better place is there to post my thoughts than at the video of the school I am at ends with.
@1385867 And you don't think Bowie and Coppell didn't deserve 3rd or better with the blood sweat and tears that they put in their show just to have a few judges deny them that by 1, yes 1, point? Personally I don't think this deserved 3rd at all.
@1385867 Yea, but LD Bell and Marcus didn't beat you by 1 point, they had a considerable lead. And of coarse you would say" I believe those judges have there own free will to judge how they please" if you got the better end of the deal. If Bowie had won the tie-breaker, I am sure you would all be complaining as well.
@1385867 Ok, looks like I am going to have to do this the hard way...you mean to tell me that when the announcer said, "And in 3rd place......the Duncanville High School Marching Band" you were silent as statue? That is total B.S. also, mayby you should try and use the entire text box to post your comment insted of making 5 different posts...
And another thing, what were you even thinking during your halftime show at jerry's world, it was a piece of crap, especially considereing you placed top 5 at state...
@hornsunite So you didn't stop posting because of me, you stopped posting because of me. There has got to be a Darwin Award lying around here somewhere for you.
@DentedTrombone42 and ya know what; I can respect that; cuz EVERYONE's entitled to there OWN opinions;) so it's whatever know bro... What happened happened and what will happen (next state year) will happen. Can we AT LEAST agree on that?
Congrats Duncanville. What a great show.....From a LD Bell Band Mom!
Still gives me chills...
Who ever says there can't be a good marching show without props? Excellent!
It's hours before I go on to perform my last state show 2018 (...for all)and watching this 2010 show just reminds me why the duncanville band is truly like no other band . It's an honor to carry that legacy on last time . Beautiful music btw
This is my favorite marching show of 2010! Duncanville is always one of the best in my book. Just enjoy the show guys.
It’s very hard to find a band who teaches their kids as superior as duncanville, focusing on nothing but pure playing and marching, great job kiddos
The memories!!! Reminiscing in 2019 😁 This was my freshman year on battery percussion, that warm-up was EVERYTHING!!! ❤️💙 #aintnobandlikeadvilleband
I've seen this show about 2344783 times and it's still amazing every single time. You guys definitely deserved third place.
@shernandez6636 the random flute marching with the drumline is because the drill writter didn't write enough spots for the moves that follow. I wondered the same question being in the battery. Wow. This show absolutely brings out so many emotions, the way the music brings out emotion is amazing. I loved being a part of this show!!
Love this. I do not live in Texas anymore :-( but I do miss the UIL band competitions---some the very best bands in the nation.
"The Duncanville High School Marching Band has been the UIL State Champion in 1986, 1990, and 2002 and is the only 5A band in Texas to advance to the State Finals every year since 1988.The Wind Ensemble has been the Region XX "Honor Band" every year since 1980 and has placed in the State Finals of Honor Band competition eight times culminating in their selection as the 1998; 2004; and 2008 TMEA AAAAA Honor Band.

Duncanville High, every year you elevate the standard of what a HS marching band should sound like!
Congrats to the D'ville Band for two awesome performances on Nov 2nd! Great show! The pre-show was beautiful and by the end of this finals performance I had tears in my eyes. The marching and playing were awesome all around!!! AND the Guard/High Hats were simply AMAZING!!! That was one tough competition, but in the end those kids played and marched their hearts out. What an awesome way to end the 2010 season! Kudos to the 2010 Duncanville Band and Staff!!!
Glad to see you've taken the advice I gave to hornsunite...
this is my band and i was here it was so much fun and i'm glad to have earned 3rd place in states!! duncanville high school band "where pride makes the difference!" :D
Absolutely stunning.
@SHTRILL Don't you love how every selection is followed by "arranged by William Pitts"? oh and Mvt 3 I think was solely Mr. Pitts with some input from Teal
Great Job! This perfomance was very intertaining and moving.
THIS SHOW IS AWESOME!!!!! GO SYDNEY (SNARE-DRUMLINE)!!! CONGRATS ON 3RD PLACE AT STATE!!!!!
Awsome show and outstanding work!!!!
im so proud to be apart of this band
@DannyReef1 dude I was a senior in this show, watching it now that I've graduated it's even more amazing than living it
best form designs ive ever seen! omg soo cool
I think that final chord is the same one that Phantom Regiment played at the end of the "Into the Light" show. Very similar ending with the band all flowing to the back corner of the field.
Best show ever.
Lawd ... The thirsty haters though . No one cares , just because DHS has the courage to do something different from the rest & truly focus on the marching and music , doesn't mean we don't have what it takes .
Outstanding show!
Y'all should have taken this show to BOA. You may not have had props, but you had alot of GE, which would have done well there. I bet this show could have placed in the top 3 at BOA Arlington and in the top 6 at Super Regionals in San Antonio
That is Saint Michael the Archangel from Church Windows by Ottorino Respighi.
@MassacrMan
Well the 3rd place show made me yawn compared to the other 9 shows. Gatta love that judging..
:) Can't wait to see 2011 and 2012 :D
Hey! Don't bring me BACK into this! :)not again. Lololol
@blaynepf100
Yea welcome aboard, I am sure we could use a couple more "flagets" for our show....
@longhorn2190 Yes, it's thrown in there in various sections. Sometimes subtly, other times more obvious.
The doxology portion of Angels in the Architecture is the closer of the show as well.
@MrBlah123blah thats because it is..... that singing is a very popular piece.
Was that a little Carol of the Bells before and after Church Widows?
@1385867
Thats not what I saw from the stands, you can let this go at any time...its up to you to keep posting.
@daydreamerangel300 ohhhhhhh!!!! Thanx;)
Did anyone else notice the beginning sounded like the Cadets 2011 show???
My favorite moment of this show lasts for less than a second. It's at roughly 4:24, when the High Hats pop up with their "wings".
seriously how many bands did angels in the architecture?
What were the different movements performed for this show?
@MassacrMan actually Marcus' opener Byrd Sym we played that my 8th grade yr but Marcus' rendition was decent
Why do you guys keep referring to "no props"? It's not like they make any difference in UIL anyway. If you thought that going without them was some sort of disadvantage, perhaps you should look at that.
@1385867

And yes out of the 9 other bands there, I thought yours was most boring.
What about the score? How far was Dville behind Marcus? Or is Texas like Indiana - no score posting allowed?
@1385867
if you want to hear a real version of the song, go on itunes and look up "Vetrate di Chiesa" Church Windows preformed by the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.
@DentedTrombone45 I'm glad youre glad;)
Oh okay, do you want a golden star? It's alright. Our band has something special. Sucks for you that you missed out on a group like that.
@DentedTrombone42 let me ask u this; what is it that u PERSONALLY have against my band (Duncanville)?
Is it just me, or does the band seem smaller than in past years?
Duncan rocks
@DentedTrombone42 do you mean '98 or '00 cuz '99 wasn't a state year... I'm sure of it... Just sayin'
props to Duncanville for no props lol
Im in this band!!!!!!!
Damn, I'm still coming back 10 years later as a 25 year old man lol.
How did this not beat Bell?
2012 - We will Win!!!!
@pineapple2013 I totally agree with you and i was thinking that very same thing. LD Bell has an amazing Marching ensemble but Duncanville seems as if they were more genuine and realistic. The music in my opinion was even executed better than Bell's. Unfortunately, we're not judges.
"Exclamation! JUST FOR emphasis!!" so don't come at me sideways...
I won't argue your opinion nor your view on props, but Duncanville is in no way a newcomer. If you look on the Duncanville Wikipedia page, they have been in state finals since 1988, so they kinda dropped the ball on a nearly 25 year streak.
That 02 trophy needs a new neighbor...
@pepsigurl1000 really??? What instrument??? o_0 (cuz I'm in this band too!!! GO HORNS!!!)
@1385867
" Im pretty sure we were quiet as a mouse trying to see if we acually got the top 3 acually."
Obviously I wasen't clear enough...you mean to tell me when they announced the 3rd place spot, Duncanville was a quiet as a mouse? That would be a negatory...
DHS! DHS! DHS!
@1385867
If by "better and dramatic" you mean slow and sleep inducing, then yes you are spot on...After comparing the two, this version makes me think of a old decrept priest slowly making his way to the alter to give a long winded sermon that no one will listen to. The other version sounds like two epic armies about to fight in a bloody crusade.
Epic battle>slow decrept priest
we are going to win it this time around third part of the trilogy
If they are, then why put fourth the effort to see what I wrote?
@DentedTrombone42 it was a simple typo dude... Calm down; but back to my point; can we at least agree that WHAT EVER HAPPENED HAPPENED AND WHAT EVER WILL HAPPEN WILL... aaand THAT EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO THERE OWN OPINIONS?
@hornsunite
Lol why the hell would you include some random singer in this? Doesn't make any sense.
I thought you guys were really good yesterday, and was sorry to see you did not make it to finals. It is sad to see that focus is shifting from marching to who has the better props, or who spent the most money on a "production", or like in the olympics if you are a newcomer who has "not paid their dues" you pretty much have no chance of even be considered by the judges. Some that did not make it to finals should have just as some that did shouldn't...buy hey that is just my opinion.
I guess not making state finals for the first time in 20 years is special. I don't really care if I make you mad, I just stated that I called it.
@1385867
I assume you mean't "your" not "youe" and state is in 2 years...
You done yet?
@sk8erboi42992 well I was apart of this band this year (freshman) and no one ever said how contributed to Mvt 3 more..... Just sayin.... And I've heard some music for next year...... AND HOLY SHIT!!!!! WE'RE GUNNA ROCK THAT SHIT NEXT YEAR!!!! it was just amazing sounding!!!!! PENDING IF OUR FRESHMAN R SNY TYPE OF GOOD NEXT YEAR:/
@evansislegend I agree, but I can't help make that happen anymore
Funny, you just described Coppell, except they made finals.
WHO IS SINGING???
I think this show was way better and more creative than LD Bell.
sarahi?
Good
1st Place: Marcus
2nd Place: L.D. Bell
3rd Place: Duncanville
4th Place: Bowie
5th Place: Coppell
It is what it is. Get over it.
@1385867
I think so to, but I didn't introduce it, you did.
Hello!!! Imma dude! And i didn't stop posting cuz of @DentedTrombone41 I stopped cuz I was done with @DentedTrombone49 bs... So yeh... And again... IMMA GUY!!!!!!!!!!!
I meant so it's what ever NOW bro
@1385867
Look up "coppell 2009 boa" on RUclips, then compare the tempos that you played St. Michel and the tempos we played it...Like I said, it is my opinion about what you did with it, in my opinion I thought it was slow.

@DentedTrombone42 I was using those 4 EMPHASIS!!!! like nicki minaj said
Well that was respectful.
@DentedTrombone42 yeh... in YOUR opinion;) and yeh... In YOUR opinion; it didn't make any sense to include nicki minaj... BUT I DID
@atenjaz Heck yeah!!!!!
@1385867
Ok, looks like I am going to have to do this the hard way...you mean to tell me that when the announcer said, "And in 3rd place......the Duncanville High School Marching Band" you were silent as statue?

@sandwitcheater9
And here comes the third of the 3 stooges, I am glad you can google texas 5a marching results, its not going to change me.
