Show beats in the lot. Stanford, CA 6.22.2013 All music is property of SCV. If you would like this video removed, please message me, and I will take it down.
The kind of musicality and overall musical expression in performance that this group learns is unparalleled by any other. Marching activities are notorious for only teaching the technical aspect of music performance but that is totally untrue for this group. Really, really amazing.
"Marching activities are notorious for only teaching the technical aspect of music performance but that is totally untrue for this group." That's a gross generalization.
Their NightBEAt show was amazing! 4th place is impressive considering the top three dominating corps. their pit is definitely really special, the frosting of the cake for this year's show.
Great to see Vanguard doing the music from the stage once again. Going back to ones roots can be a rewarding experience both for the musicians and the viewers. Wonderful playing by a group of wonderful young people! Now that amplification is possible in drum and bugle corps, why not use celeste for the "collette" theme? It would add a mode of theatrical integrity relative to scoring.
It's refreshing to see Vanguard being Vanguard. No need for the drumline to be dancing back there every 10 measures or doing a bunch of drill. Just playing (mostly) clean and with musicality. Great work for being so early in the summer.
I realize that but where else are you boing to put the pit? The marimbas, chimes, bells, xylophones, etc. need to be down front. If you put them anywhere else, nobody is going to be able to heare them

I don't get how people can dislike videos like this... Did you have a bad experience with Les Mis as a child or something?
Vanguard always has my favorite book in DCI since Rennick went there in 2011. Its so great and i love it.
I could fan girl all day over SCV this is perfect
Wow...just rediscovered this...this was in JUNE?!?!
7:11 my favorite part on marimba
I am so exited to have these guys visit my high school this year
Great Les Miserablés percussion arrangement.
The bass line at 6:47! WOW
The BEST god damn front ensemble I have ever heard in my life. Holy shit.
Then 2018 SCV happened lol
That is an INCREDIBLY clean percussion section. Bravo!
love the program this year. it has an old school Vanguard feel to it that is your essence of innovation and style.
Great to see you guys, really great year - - bring it!
This is beautiful. Thanks Ms. Fischer.
When you realize this was in June... holy
My favorite show this year by my favorite corps! Such amazing music! Beat BD this year guys!
Wonderful! An Incredible Percussion Score! Bravo!
Thanks Much! :-)
I love seeing people smile when they play
Its interesting being able to recognize a lot of this music
That marimba player tho! He's s'cute!
Love the way those snares sound!!!!
This is just amazing.
Like I've posted in other vids, it's just not fair to be this clean, this early! Great job guys!!
The Pit Is Pure GREATNESS
Hey Paul Rennick...love your work here! :)
I love watching this go front ensemble!
This is amazing
Favorite for 2013. Hell yeah vanguard.
So good!!!
Man...I love Rennick's books
Their NightBEAt show was amazing! 4th place is impressive considering the top three dominating corps. their pit is definitely really special, the frosting of the cake for this year's show.
I am so proud of my son Tai Tenisi
Perfeito demais.. #scv ^^
I just love the book so much.. Not that it's technically incredible or anything, but it's so musical.
The front ensemble is so impressive. Can't stop watching from 3:25-4:15
Speechless...
what just happened!? OMG this is a beautiful show and it sounds amazing! the red machine is coming!
i was the 1,000th subscriber
This snare line is dastardly.
Ok, I'm convinced. Having a good death glare is probably part of the audition material for the cymbal line..
unreal.... and still a month to go! 😜
Some say they are still full runthrough-ing to this day
Paul Rennick, you are a god.
Every marching band/drum core had to have had Les Mis as a show or a excerpt of it in their show. It's just like a law of the universe.

I know the third/middle bass player, he was the bass tech for our high school's marching band
really well done
Awesome ✌️
It's so weird not seeing Dan on a Paul Rennick drumline after all these years.
The pit sounds great
Yes it is. True story.
Tenors in the background at 7:58! haha! i miss this!
It's a Zildjian Crash Cymbal holder, Dynasty does make one though
so many fucking suspended cymbal rolls holy shit thats awesome.
OMG A LES MIS SHOW!!?? I HAVE NEVER HEARD ONE OF THESE BEFORE!!!!!
Also, check out 1989 Cadets.
Sick closer!
ah, the keyboard percussion at 8:25...the sound of innocence.
Nice timpani playing!
That hug at 9:12 was epic.
5:00 check out the cymbal player at the back insane!
Go Jonz!!!
Great mallet parts.
what song is that at 1:42?
This was my dream in Highschool. All I ever wanted was to join scv.... but then I joined the Airforce :/
Nice
is that neil patrick harris on marimba?!
do they have the same lead drum instructor as last year?
Anyone know what the show this year is called?
Kind of a weird question. What is that cymbal mount thing on the side of the marimba field frame? Is that a dynasty product??
paul rennick does it again.
Rope drums would have been nice to lead into the closing number. It would have added an authentic tonal contrast. Just a thought.
Nice recovery at 8:02
That's what I thought, I heard Do You Hear the People Sing, I just wasn't positive because Crusaders also used that in their opener in 2011.
Who is that marimba player that we see the most ?
Edouard Beyens
BTW, DAT BASS TUNING. :3
Did anyone’s cool showed this?
Me: **Raises hand**
RETURN OF MARIMBA GIRL?!?!?
#scvdrumline
is there a vanguard yell in this show? it didnt seem like there's a spot for it yet again..??
Their cymbals are so ripped, they p
How old is that marimba player? She looks 12
I suppose you're talkng about the blonde girl? She aged out in 2014
+George Bush wow lol, and yes I was.
+George Bush I see you on all of these videos, I'm glad you support drum corps and SCV percussion Mr. President :)
+Ernesto Aguirre Vanguard all the way.
i know the 2nd quad player from the left
would you like a cookie?
ThePtowndrummr would you like to stfu

Bergerault seems to be treating them a bit better than Adams.

This comment aged well
It's just a coincidence.
The pit is just too overpowering these days, they really need to dial it down a bit or put them somewhere else on the field
If the pit is this big, the band must be huge. Besides, there's no where else to put the pit.
Jean McDowell
the ones in the back are the ones who march with the band
I realize that but where else are you boing to put the pit? The marimbas, chimes, bells, xylophones, etc. need to be down front. If you put them anywhere else, nobody is going to be able to heare them
Erm no. The pit is just fine. Pretty sure they are balanced with the band.
Oh when did you hear the full ensemble to make that conclusion?
