I had to have listened to this like at least 20 times. This video has made me strive to be a better trumpet player and just want to be that lead playing the solo.
That year, the Crossmen stayed at my school and practiced their marching show. The year before Pacific Crest had stayed there, and this year the Cavaliers stayed.
Idk maybe I am tired of the extreme dissonance without resolution. Maybe im tired of the same people winning every year even though there are better corps. Maybe I just dont like the name, why cant it be indigo devils, or slightly green devils.
The other day I was humming this while walking down to band class and at least 10 people either said “hey that’s earth song” or they started humming it too. I love the way this song sounds and how well the entire core played this year.
Figure it out :D if you need a hint ill give you one, but only the starting note lol. its not that long and you could easily try it down the octave when figuring it out :p Good luck :D
imagine if all of these sleeper lead players were in bd! Speaking of which, either modern corssman are getting bad shows or their leads are not what they use to be :(. Bring back 2011-2012 Corssmen!!
This video is the reason why I started learning trumpet. It's also the reason why I want to join Crossmen and do Drum Corps in general.
Look at you now, a blue devil
Who’s Adam Zaph?

GOD THAT TRUMPET SOLO GIVES ME THE GOOSEBUMPS EVERYTIME!! I love Crossmen!
Still one of the best openers in DCI history.

The drumline on point
they did this song justice.
Lead trumpet dudes got some chops!

Dangit! Ah well i got it from the comments and it looked a lot like a GR i own myself so i was like, hm, seems legit. Best solo of 2012 undoubtedly :p
The Kool Kazoo Krew will be doing a kazoo cover of this opener. Excited 😁

At 1:14 no microphone dang
Joshua Park he had no mic in competition either
Wrong again :) I used a Curry 50S, great for lead players as well. lol
can someone give me the notes for the baritone solo pls?
www.crossmen.org/page25277926
i was actually visually distracted by those.
Learning, id say a 7c mate :p thats the standard mouthpiece
What kind of mouthpiece is recommended for learning trumpet?
the one you think that play the finest. at my band they learn it on a 3c. but i'm using a 1 1/4. you should check them out.
Figure it out :D if you need a hint ill give you one, but only the starting note lol. its not that long and you could easily try it down the octave when figuring it out :p Good luck :D
What kind of mouthpiece is he using? Any answers?
If only zach played that solo :/
@Aggro Swifty. Collins?
It's just a 3C
what are the notes for the trumpet solo
anyway i can find the trumpet solo music
Its on google put crossmen solo earthsong
Go to musescore and put Crossmen 2012. It has the full score for earthsong
Blaise bowman has a transcription here on outline
Little bit sharp, isn’t it?
brilliant but the song is too short. half way of eargasm :(
imagine if all of these sleeper lead players were in bd! Speaking of which, either modern corssman are getting bad shows or their leads are not what they use to be :(. Bring back 2011-2012 Corssmen!!
Sorry bud. Not everything you hear is true.
