Music reviews of Blast: An Explosive Musical Celebration
Music Review: five stars for the metamorphosis of star of indiana
Rating: 5 Stars
When Bill Cook and Jim Mason gave us the drum and bugle corps STAR OF INDIANA, the world of field music began to evolve very quickly. To those who complained that Bill Cook had "bought" a drum corps, I suggest you listen to and hopefully witness in person the magic that is 'blast'. If you had any doubts about the sincerity of this man, it comes through most on this outing. (If you still have any doubts about the sincerity of Bill Cook, go to West Baden!) Until recently, the pinnacle of success in Drum Corps, whether it be junior or senior corps has always been the coveted title of world champion, which Star of Indiana won in 1991. Since then they have blurred the boundries of what a drum corps is. Since leaving the DCI circuit in the dust, Star has toured with the Canadian Brass, given us pleasure with Brass Theatre, and now in an amazing package comes 'blast'. They have invented a new 'field' which is a grid on stage. They have reinvented themselves as well as drum corps as well as Brass Theatre. This IS theatre! This IS FUN!!!!! Okay, so you've heard about the visuals. You've heard about the sensational drumming. You've heard about the standing ovations in London. Now hear the score. Listen to this incredible brass blast. Jim Prime is the absolute KING of arranging brass music. Listen to the licks of the middle horns and just TRY to keep up!!! How about those tubas and the riveting lines they produce? Listen to this kid Ben emote through his soprano, flugle, cornet etc... wow!!! And while standing on a chair suspended in mid-air! I marched with the Hawthorne Caballeros drum and bugle corps for more years than I need to mention, so I am particularly fond of 'Malaguena' which was a perennial show stopper for us. This is far and away the best arrangement I have ever heard. The percussion is dead on for every number and will blow you away with thier precision. Who could imagine 'Bolero' and 'Land of Make Believe' in the same show? It works brilliantly. Buy this. I personally guarantee it. I'm serious. If you don't like it and can give me a sound reason as to why not, I'll buy it from you and distribute it among my friends!!
