Carolina Crown 2010: A Second Chance


Yep, Carolina Crown has officially announced their 2010 program! Here it is:


What if you had the ability to take another shot at a decision, opportunity, or moment?  How might choosing a different direction lead to alternate opportunities? Performing musical selections inspired by these possibilities, the corps’ repertoire includes the Second Symphonies of Mahler and Khatchaturian, Danzon No.2 by Marquez; as well as Elgar’sNimrod, a classically reflective piece that hints at the Second movement of Beethoven’sSonata Pathétique.  Conceptual motifs, a richly coordinated palette, and a touch of nostalgic detail will further illustrate this romantic, yet existential, theme.  Carolina Crown 2010 proudly presents: “A Second Chance.”
Repertoire:

Since I should be able to update at least once a day over the summer via text or email, I'm going to try to do just that. I might not update that much during Spring Training, because it's pretty repetitive and boring, but once we get on the road I'll try to at least let you all know where we are, what's new, or maybe just what's for lunch that day. I'll also be posting a bit more info in some posts after this - how to contact me, source music, etc.

EDIT: Shame on me! I forgot to mention my fellow CC members who are also writing summer blogs: Jordan Webb and Grace Welter.
