I've watched this video over and over and I'm VERY impressed with this fine band. They look sharp and snappy, they march well and above all, they PLAY well. My compliments to this fine band and all the work they had to do to provide a performance like this. My compliments to their director for selecting a bombastic, brassy march for them to play.....at a sensible tempo. Some bands are hampered by having to play a concert march, but not this one. BRAVO !

If only more people played this amazing march😧 either way, these guys sound freaking amazing. Definitely give them and their director props for picking such a march

Ok, it's March 23, 2016 and I'm lured once more back to this performance by this exceptional band. You guys are GREAT ! Incidentally, I just noticed the nice tonguing technique by the clarinets and flutes as the band passed by.

SpeedyNeutrino172 one of the best Barnum and Baileys out there, up there with old school Castle Park and Loara

+Dy1ingGir4ffes ...I agree. This is the best rendition of Barnum and Baileys I've EVER heard from a high school band.....bar none.

@speedyneutrino1729 8 жыл бұрын

+SpeedyNeutrino172 ...I believe a lot of directors or the students themselves hear the "circus" version up there around 160 + BPM and shy away from it. This is the perfect tempo for marching...around 120.

@speedyneutrino1729 8 жыл бұрын

+Dy1ingGir4ffes ...Incidentally, if you want to hear something unusual, find The French Foreign Legions instrumental march, "Le Boudin" which is played at 88 BPM. Of course you may have already heard that march.

+SpeedyNeutrino172 I have not heard it, and when I get to a location with solid internet, I'll definitely have to check it out. Yeah, high school bands should leave the circus tempos to the military bands. I'd love to see Mt. Carmel revive "In Storm and Sunshine" or "BB and CF". They'd definitely set the standard for each, much as they have "Barnum and Bailey's Favorite" (2011), "Loyal Legion" (2014) and "The Beau Ideal" (1986 and 2015). They also have claim to my favorite "Bullets and Bayonets" (2008). Such an amazing parade band, I have to say.

You guys are damn good, from a retired band director...my uncle used to be famous in San Diego..Lyle Bond, broadcaster for the San Diego Chargers way back in the 1960's. He would have flipped to see this, he was a trombone player when he was a kid.

@marchingsundevils11 I'm glad to hear these won't be their parade uniforms from here on out. Are the new parade uniforms going to be red again? Any word on what happened with the banner?

@suchaboringusername 12 жыл бұрын

@SpikefanTheTerrible there hasn't been a decision made about next year's uniforms. Also, the banner is replacing the old one that took 8 people to carry. The new one only weighs a few pounds, though I agree that the old one was better.

@stevenmiramesa 12 жыл бұрын

@kuxica From my understanding, Mt Carmel will be getting new uniforms next season. And the parade uniforms they normally used were not cleaned. Don't take my word for it though.,

@SpikefanTheTerrible - I agree, this is one of the best I've heard from them since Mr. Torns retired. However, I must admit that I am not a fan of the new look they have in their uniforms. I can imagine that they have merged their field Uniforms completely onto the street. Also, I am not a fan of the new Banner. I believe it doesn't have the same effect and appeal as their classic banner ( I remember when they were raised on poles). But their sound is Definitely makes up for it. Was Awesome

If there any questions the FAMU band's music ability (they are showmen, not musicians), just listen to this fine high school band perform musically. A great performance by a proud and well prepared group of kids. listen to both bands and compare.

@gilnorton3958 6 жыл бұрын

My one complaint, and this is a general one for all the bands in these wonderful street competitions, is the almost total suppression of the percussion sections. All the bands seem to use one snare drum, one bass drum and a light dusting of cymbals. As a drummer for over 65 years I'm disturbed by the lack of respect given to humanity's oldest musical instruments.

For this March to be played at Andante pace, Mt. Carmel fell short. Sloppy and uncontrolled. No chords I could hear on this video. How was it at street level ?......... Unexciting I bet.

FAMU? Compared to this fine band? Pffttt...all FAMU produces is NOISE with NO regard whatsoever for dynamics. FAMU makes my ears BLEED !
