@antongordon1895 but I never claimed that one band is the best like the OP did. So yes, I agree with you. I think that at this level, the top bands are pretty evenly matched.
@@mbell985 yeah so basically Hebron definitely is on another level musically but they get beat by bands like Avon because Avon has better show design and visuals
@@LiamHiatt After watching GN this year, I do not agree that Avon and Carmel were THAT much better visually. I believe their GE scores were overinflated.
@@825.mp4Texas still on top. Hebron has shown us 3 years in a row tht they are the strongest players in all of america that’s something indiana bands could never imagine doing. hebron puts the BAND in marching BAND
@@kbuddy1 They have the most consistent rankings at first on any forum ever, just cause they can’t go to grand nats every year doesn’t mean that they are less than the bands that can afford to go every year. Also, I said “overall”, which means that they don’t have to be first all the time to be the best. You can’t argue with anything after their performance in 21 and 22, and even 23.
I was right near the field in the stands and when I heard the mellophone note/trill (I am a mello for info) at 6:45 I flipped because it was amazing and I really want to play something like that in my marching band. You guys did amazing!!
As a trumpet who’s section consists of 9 people, watching this part of the show literally brought me to tears to hear the sheer sound and depth. Amazing performance!
I was watching this in my band room after we came back from a parade! My band director rushed to get me as soon as she saw Hebron she knew how much I love them! I would love to be in their band! This definitely is number 2 of thier shows! I can never guess what they are going to do!!
@ First of all, why with the snarky remark over something that’s not that big of an issue, and 2nd of all, I was wrong, because I thought that happened in 2021, and not 2022. I didn’t mean my comment in a mean way, I just thought it was the year prior to 2022.
Hebron is the best band in the country! No disrespect to the GN Champs but this show was just better. More dynamic. I really wish they would move the GN Championship to somewhere central and get judges that are not so biased towards the bands in that area.
No offense to you and certainly not to Hebron (I thought their win in Music was WELL deserved), but the judging panel was from all over the country. True, one was from Indiana, but as best as I can remember, one was from Oregon, one from New Mexico, one from New England, and I believe one was from Texas. (I just tried to find the panel online but couldn't find it anywhere; that's just what I remember being announced)
In fact, no judges on the Finals panel were from Texas. Two, however, were from Indianapolis, including Randy Greenwell, who judged music effect and had no Texas bands in the top 3. In fact, he gifted Avon and Carmel rather large margins. He thought Carmel was 3.5 points better in music effect than The Woodlands, who was his 4th place band. Absurd, by the way!
you dont know what youre even talking about do you 😂 ive never met a more self centered egotistical community than the hebron community. 5 years (at least) of toxicity and ongoing still. no surprise, & deserve no respect from “the rest of us”. yall can enjoy yourselves
I really wish Highschool marching bands were this cool where I live in the north bay in California, like everyone seems so involved and there’s so many of those very involved performers, making a bigger and better sound.
The repertoire is as follows: Ein Heldenleben mvt 4 by Richard Strauss Enter the Galaxies by Paul Lovatt-Cooper Reflections of Earth by Gavin Greenaway Holding Out For a Hero by Dean Pitchford and Jim Steinman Red Sea by Hans Zimmer Something by Howard Shore(maybe Khazad-dum)? Go the Distance by Alan Menken Original music by Michael Martin and Dave Glyde
Jeeezzz The music prowess is spectacular. it's just those visual that lacks year over year for Texas imo I just wished UIL allowed Texas program's access to visual assignments and practice pre-August 1st! Once UIL realizes they are not the only standard in Marching Arts it's going to allow these already stellar programs to constantly shine on the National stage like nothing ever seen before!
@@texanboiii562 I would say the Midwest as a whole come November. TBF they do get to see and practice those assignments a whole month earlier than Texas programs plus their overall music demand is mid to low compared to what some of these Texas programs are pumping out year over year. Hope that helps
Fantastic. I dont mean to make even the slightest negative comment, but a 300 member marching ensemble is a bit odd. I'd like to see it cut down a bit. Or have them make better use of their size. Why so close together most of the time? Have them spread out over the entire field.
they’re as spread out on the field as you realistically want to get. there needs to be a fine balance between being visually dynamic and keeping the performers close to the audience where they’ll be heard; this show does that pretty well. pushing people further backfield increases the distance between any two performers and makes it harder for those in the back to see drum majors (which is a flat out necessity with bands this big, you cannot listen to other parts of the field for tempo due to speed of sound). 300-350 members is actually a pretty good spot to be for a band like this. the bigger the band, the bigger the sound after all. a good number of competitive bands sit around this size. hell, my college band frequently sits at 500+ members and we make it work.

No matter what this places tonight… an iconic show to go down in the books. Every thing about this show is absolutely stunning and executed so well
I really really wanted them to place higher tonight. Their sound is just truly unparalleled to anyone else. DCI world class stuff, seriously.
I was lucky enough to see this performance in person and it was by far my favorite show that I watched that day
oh my god those trumpet screams jeeeeesus christ my mind is blown
Hebron is the Carolina Crown of boa
Best High School band in the Nation I'm proud to have a daughter who love playing for Hebron and the rest of her band mate's awesome job 🎺🎷🎹🥁
They've lost multiple times this year, so they are not the best

That part at 6:24 is so crisp and clean. Hearing that gave me chills
WOWZERS! Blow your socks off amazing!
I WILL ALWAYS BE A HEBRON FAN
One of the finest playing bands in the country, perhaps THE finest!
Agreed Imagine if UIL allowed next season visual assignments (practice) prior to August 1st?
I absolutely AGREE!!!!!!
they’ve cleaned so much since state im so exited to see them WIN

Thank you so much for filming and sharing this!! Hebron mom here who always watched from the front rows!! Still blows me away!! WOW!!!!
So proud of Hebron Band!!
Hebron for life, no other band compares
Jesus, they sound better than most world class corps
The mello at 6:46 is so good
I was here! My brother is a tuba, I cry every time I hear this
Best sound in the competition.
anyone know which piece the woodwind ostinato at 0:47 comes from? phenomenal show btw, legit brought tears to my eyes when seeing this live lol :)
The piece is enter the galaxies by Paul lovatt-cooper. It’s a cornet like in the original
@@liamallen2156do you know the entire show? Did I hear The Prince of Egypt in the mix? This performance was so incredible!
The repertoire is as follows:

Reflections of Earth by Gavin Greenaway
Holding Out For a Hero by Dean Pitchford and Jim Steinman
Red Sea by Hans Zimmer
Something by Howard Shore(maybe Khazad-dum)?
Go the Distance by Alan Menken
Original music by Michael Martin and Dave Glyde

It was an incredible performance and for sure I’ll see it again tonight
I would say this run was quite captivating. What an amazing ride!
Sick
Good job from Avon!
Wonderful job! If guard ups their game, they would be almost impossible to beat.
the fact that this show missed out of top 3 in 4A is crazy
100%. Let’s hope they kick it tonight.
YEP.
I pray they dont take this down🙏🏾
better download now
The most impossible show to find on RUclips has finally arrived
You are welcome. I have the finals performance as well but you tube has told me I hit the limit for uploads. Hopefully in a few days I can post it. L
Appreciate the comment. My daughter is one of the drum majors.
Semis was my fav run for Hebron this year
The front panels!!!
What songs are the show based off of or use music from
How this DID NOT WIN GE the world will never know.
This show is a call back to 2015's show
I hope they win

Probably. Get it while you can. lol
We’re out of competition, no reason to take it down now.
Enjoy!
@MissNatasha1973 Awesome! Now I got to listen to this fantastic show all the time now😄
Theses guys are insane
This is a Texas band isn’t it
Wow
Geez. How many kids attend that high school?
I think it’s ballpark around 1000 ish
3,600 got to Hebron
I hope everyone at their school recognizes how insanely good they are and don't put them off to focus on the football team like every other school
Will they get a penalty for starting early before the announcer was finished ?

flugel solo? since when!
The sound in this stadium bugs the hell out of me. So much reverberation. Every time they hit the drum there's so much echo. UGH!
Easily best band BY FAR. Avon and Carmel didnt even look or sound in the same league
They are WAY BETTER than Broken Arrow, Carmel and Avon. Better sound and better execution and a more interesting overall show
One trumpet sticking out and it’s not the screamer
