Every time the brass comes in singing, I get chills. This band is amazing!
The Opener was Verdi's Requiem
The ballady opener part was Mozart's Lacrimosa
The fanfare was more of Verdi
After the fanfare was Mozart's Requiem
The closer was Prayers of Kierkegaard
the best colorguard at Grand Nationals!! Awesome job Avon - keep it up!!
Avon rocks the entire marching scene in Indiana, especially their guard.
I just wanna say to these Kids and Band directors, YOU are the APITAMY of what high school marching band should be!
Great Work !
Funded by the entire city? Uhhh NO! Are you insane? 200 + members...YES and it takes an incredible talent to control 200+ band members on the field. A lot of hard work, ALOT of fundraising and alot of time makes this band AWESOME!!!
I was a sophomore this year...I feel so old watching this because I still remember marching it so well.
BACK TO BACK NATIONAL CHAMPIONS GO AVON
Getting better every year
RELENTLESS
What's amazing is that this isn't even BOA finals performance, yet it is of the same quality a month prior.
I love all the BOA finalist shows this year, but unlike the others, I can sit and watch Avon's show 5 or 10 times in a row. I think that's what makes a truly amazing show. great music, great visuals, great marching. and i am very partial to their sideline. :]
I must say that this is the first Avon band I enjoyed in every aspect. The playing is much improved! This is just fantastic. Congrats on 2nd at nationals. If this kind of band shows up every year then, you'll have your eagle before you know it! Just splendid.
i play for John Adams HS in South Bend, IN
this is prolly my favorite show of you guys, excellent visuals and great music
im in the drumline, and your drumline is sicknasty! awesome band
good lord. the first bit of this show is ridiculously demanding.
great job.
Marcus - Won Texas 5A State Marching Last Yr, Percussion Program PASIC World Champ 9 Times, Mid-West Featured Group 2007, Many Texas 5A All-State Players, Beat Bell at San Antonio Super Regional 2007
i remember seeing thins show at regionals 2007......i was in the band that got silver jeffersonville high school marching band.....we didnt do that great that esp. in the 1st movement.....but you all were amazing really
I loved Avon's show so much, even though i saw it about a million times. i really wouldnt have minded seeing them Grand Nationals Champs myself. I CAN SEE US IN THE BACKGROUND WOO
My pleasure. You guys have earned it. It is amazing what you kids accomplish each year and I believe this year was the pinnacle of it all. Until next year? I can't wait.
Man, Avon rocks! And don't think I"m just saying that.... I'm a Carroll student. I heard Lacrymosa in there. Loved your show that year. Push was still the best. Good luck this year guys!
Man, when Avon was in class B, they were neck and neck with schools like Northview, Greenwood, and Concord (I go there), now, in Class A, they have practically no competition!
Awesome show Avon! I like it even more than 2003. Congrats at nationals!
Thank you. Yes the show certainly has a lot of variety to it.
you won my heart in the first 20 seconds....then you played a note.........and now i'm hooked. great job guys. amazing show, amazing performance, and amazing band.
keep up the good work!
@koribae , yes this is a high school, Avon HS a suburb of Indianapolis. They have dominated the Indiana state championships the past several years and rightfully so, they are awesome!
So proud to say I am a part of the avon marching band
the grand nationals performance is by far the best, it was incredible.
What a massive marching band! (Especially color guard and brass section!) That is AWESOME!
I want this sound back.
Thank you all SOOOOO much for all the nice comments on this video! I was a senior and the section leader for the flute line this past year at Avon and the impact your words have on me is incredible. Thank you all for being so supportive and I hope you're all in the stands with me next year! :)
After school practice at Avon must be intense, they never stop moving. I go to Lawrence Central, so I understand completely. I was there too that night, nice show.....you will always be my enemy (nah I'm just playing lol).
Their 2009 show was the best in my opinion. Last year's wasn't too great until BOA, then they pretty much had it perfect.
No show will compare with 2009. That was in every sense a near perfect show by Grand Nationals. It rivaled Phantom Regiment's 2003 show in intensity.
Avon is like the biggest High School i have ever seen. I practiced there last year with my marching band before BOA.
inspirational....!!! AWESOME JOB!!
im in the guard for avon and i sometimes think that too and i was in both shows...but i guess there was just something about the massive show that made it to Nats standards...and just a fact there were about 8 or 9 freshman in the guard '07 year..we have (well since i have been in it) about 40 guard members...we are really acostombed to having a big guard...
this is my favorite show by far
This was easily my favorite music at Grand Nationals.
I can see why Avon won the visual caption at Grand Nationals. Thats some squeaky clean drill.
When I was at DCI Finals this year I realized that the cadets show had a good chunk of this in their show
Not anymore. I was in marching band for 5 years 8-12th grade at Dorman High School and then, 4 years in college at Western Carolina University. I was drum major for 2 years in high school and 3 years in college. I still help out with a band here and there, but I've shifted over towards choral conducting as my main occupation. I'm still addicted to band though and I had a double concentration as an undergrad in instrumental and vocal music education. I follow BOA and DCI 'almost' obsessively.
i cant believe they didnt win it this year.
Lawrence Central finally got it.
wow, you guys continue to blow my mind hahaha.I saw you guys last year at grand nationals and loved your show! I'm in the Gateway High School Marching Band. Too bad we got 33rd and just missed semis.
the only thing the same is the fact that we ran off. we were spread across the field whereas they were in tight spacing and they ran off in different counts and we ran off all at the same time.
Indeed we are, but many of us also have friends in the Carmel program. We compete a lot in the same contests because we're only 45 minutes or so apart from each other.
i go to snider we placed 10th this year i had to watch them from the side it was intimidating
...and actually, I met one of your staff members last year judging BandBeat in Charlotte, NC. Jeff Queen. I was the drum major judge there in 2006.
and btw this is the first time my band has been in class A and we qualified for regionals again! we'll play at Laffayette Jefferson
Amazing show! :)
ahh thanks so much everyone for the support. we dont say were better than anyone we just work really hard to achieve what we do. So please dont bash us its for one not sportsman like and 2 its just really rude, all of these kids sweat to the bone to achieve this. we practice Tues/Wed/Thurs 6-9
saturdays if we have shows we can have 8 hours days or if we dont sometimes we have mini camps for 12 hours and fridays sometimes
we practice in any condition and always do out best
all bands r great
AVON IS THE SHHHH
holy hell! this band is huge!
great show
Dang, you guys are good. Really good.
Hey Conner. That's the Dies Irae from the Verdi Requiem. It's pretty much awesome.
I counted 21 or 22. BA had 26. I really liked Avon's show
That's because the Japanese band kids do music for 8 hours then they go home and practice for another 6. But hard work and a stride for perfection is something that is ingrained in the Japanese psyche.
yeah its Verdi's Requiem. i really wish they would have won.. darn LD Bell.
You guys are so good, gosh, I wish I could march in a band this good! Haha.
um...thats the Verdi Requiem they start with. For a high school band to pull it off like they did is a result of extremely hard work, and even more so because they're doing the marching work with it.
I KNOW!!! everyone says massive was the best show, but i agree this was our best show ever, and we ended not winning nats with this.... i'm sorry flipped on what shoulda won nats
beautiful ! your forms are right on target, yall look great :]
Actually we are more famous outside of Avon than in our own school, half the kids at our own school don't even realize what we've accomplished.
lolol interesting, we only played 3 songs. Hopefully you weren't talking about the bouncy song with all the body, cause that song is amazing. The most fun song I've ever played.
I wish we could be this good
wow!!! this is probrobly the first school i've seen that dosn't need microphones for the pit!!!
wow! I love it! Especially the intro which was Verdi's Requiem!
I love 6:20 to the end sooo much
Avon is definetly one of the best! Luckily I go there. Sadly i chose not to continue trumpet...
I agree that this is a great music and visual performance, and a refreshing change from all of the too weird and boring BOA shows as of late. However, they did not take first mostly because of field music and not ensemble...which you can't really notice in a high cam tape like this.
LC was clean and sounded good, but I've heard Avon's closer was basically the high point of the evening. It's a mystery.
Very Well played and marched i'm impressed!! You guys were better than LD Bell
we arent really sure what happened. we had a great show. some of the judges just didnt want us to win. whatever. congrats lc.
their tuba line is really amazing
wow this is the same show nishihara high school band won their national championship with in 2005
Omg. I'd kill to be in this band. Honestly.
Kill.
The show was really great, music, marching, everything.
@wasid13 That was not added to the show until after state finals. As I recall, the first time it appeared was the Bands of America Indianapolis Regional.
This band is great. Mozart pieces are awesome! How do you all get to be soooo good? Do you dedicate everything to band? Our bands here in NM seem too as well, but we are no where are as good as this!
Technically they are, but it changes so much
that was sickkkkkkk!
i agree.
thanks
im pretty sure my friend is in this band...
somewhere...on the drum line...
this is pretty intense...amazing really...
This is an AMAZING SHOW!!! I'm such a band geek :)
2:30 always gives me chills
I agree with Bandyof07 - definitely better than last year.
The caption should be corrected Homestead got 4th (and screwed over...)
holy crap you are so freaking lucky.......
What show is this? I've heard it before but don't remember what it was called.
i wish i went to avon for this alone speedway has nothing like it and i actually care for marching band
thats why the end of our show it the 'mass exodus'
the first thing they played.. was that from harry potter quidditch world cup (video game)? haha i loved that game as a kid!
when hell freezes over, we will
@ahsspinner07 You might have heard Nishihara High School Marching Band (Japan) play the music first back in 2004. Smaller ensemble, enclosed field, but there band director was also a product of the Cavaliers Drum and Bugle Corps, as is Avon's director.
Incredible difficulty on marching tempo and formations! GREAT JOB!!! You were definitelt robbed off 1st Place!
awesome!
Are you meaning Greenwood only has juniors and seniors? Or Avon? Because Avon has freshmen on up to seniors...we even had an 8th grader last year in the band. Everyone that wants to do marching band is allowed in also.
Hate to spoil the fun.
Third was Carmel.
Is it just me, or is this show better then 08 when they won Nats...
Go Avon
damn, how big is your pit? realy suprised after seing this that you lost to Bell at Nationals. Good Job guys.
@wire22wire I totally agree that one made me cry because now I have a hero in marching band or a band hero lol I actually know a few people in the avon marching band, they work on their show starting in just then once it gets to july they have a competition that will approve how their show works and the theme and everything then another one in august the once november comes around its crunch time to get their pre show that was approved or changed at ther july show then november 20th is the day
Does Avon get a lot of support from the community? Our school district keeps trying to cut our music program...
This is just like Nishiharas show from 04-05 when they went to nationals
