7/8 is such an incredibly versatile exercise, and it sounds nice too!

[@TheTrevordeary]

Hey Erin, I played Xylophone for SCV this past summer and am marching this summer too. If you want to message me, I’d love to answer any questions you have.

[@weebleu]

@@TheTrevordeary hey man, I've been wanting to learn more about the process of auditioning and the requirements to join SCV, would yoy mind helping me out?

[@CalebMartinPercussion]

Trevor Deary hey! I know it wasn’t directed to me, but I am auditioning in Dallas this November! Can I message you as well??

[@caseythompson9603]

Are they able to play with any technique that works for them like the battery or do they have a set technique?

[@isantbell]

We have a set technique! It's generally more sound-focused and kinder to your hands in comparison to other marching groups' techniques

[@caseythompson9603]

Thank you! I hope to try out for Santa Clara Vanguard some day and wanted to know what kind of technique you guys used

[@isantbell]

Happy practicing!!

[@Deus_Vult7]

@@isantbell i wish i could have joined front ensemble for this year because I love yalls show in 2018. I learned how to play the first like 3 measures of yalls opening on marimba and vibes

[@TheKittyGamerMC]

@@isantbell what's the technique?

[@tr3ybod857]

Late. But really flexing right in front of phantom regiment. -_- y'all are smoking something fierce. Not like that's allowed on tour tho

[@David_jrd]

what scale rotation do they play?

[@Bleseddd1]

What’s the exercise at 1:35

[@brflynn17]

Let me borrow your toaster not sure what they call it but at my school it’s called My Favorite

[@fdeleon720]

Let me borrow your toaster “My Favorite” is what it seems to be called everywhere

[@Shockercj]

@@brflynn17 Would you by chance have a PDF or a version of it that can be found online? I can't find the sheet music for it anywhere.

[@theoneandonlytonton]
