The competition judges for Grade One were:

The weather was hot and sunny but the strong and blustery wind was problematic for sound recording.
Drum corps is absolutely untouchable this year.
Outstanding recording, outstanding medley, outstanding drum corps,outstanding tone,outstanding band. Congrats to Stuart and my bud Kegan as well as Andrew...well done boys!
Stuart and his team construct medleys as if they were writing for a choir - this is just a sublime arrangement and playing from beginning to end, early chanter notwithstanding, I'm not surprised it won.
It's perhaps redundant to comment on the sound quality at this point, dronechorus, but the various cellphone recordings I've heard from last weekend have a significant amount of wind noise. In true form, this sounds like it could have been made by the BBC! Thanks for posting these, as always. I'm now going to listen to this about half a dozen more times.
Yes… this! ☝🏽
Still gives me chills when I listen to it. My absolute favorite medley to date. Thanks for capturing it on video!!
Thank you again . Brilliant piece of work by band and DC .
Thanks again for these videos dronechorus, the audio and video are impeccable!! These videos deserve more likes 😎
Stuarts medleys are just incredible. I don't think this was the winning performance however but the judges are the pros. I love when they get into their flow it's music to the ears. Musically outstanding.
amazing - thanks for posting DC
Thanks for yous vidéos ! its great and superbe !and just for "the early E" !! it's not even one second on the whole set of the medley and the rest is brilliant ! we don't downgrade just for an "early E" i think;
Another amazing performance. Some really good runs from others but IDPB just miles ahead.
Awesome
Jigs 🔥🔥
I'm genuinely astounded they won with that early E... but in fairness, I'm not qualified to judge. It was lovely otherwise. Well done.
early chanter isn't the be all and end all in grade 1
@@connoro8610 agreed, but its like a penalty within the first 10 seconds in football... hard to recover and no one forgets it.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they just didn’t hear it, it’s easy to miss depending on where you’re standing.
@@TechnicalSika yes an early E and a bad strike in could make or brake a band, however the medley itself is too good lol
No wonder the judge missed the early E, he was too busy taking photographs it seems! Must be a fan!
Good thing thats a photographer not a judge
Thought I heard this, rewound it to hear if it was from a distant band but definitely wasn’t lol
It's the same medley as the 2019 one that won them the worlds
Winning despite the early chanter? Some ears on the judges these days.
I was thinking the same....
that's just old fashion, the whole performance more than makes up for it
@@MJFPiping 🤷🏻♂️ guess it’s alright to make a mistake too, you know as long as the rest of the performance is great.
I've been listening to some of the other bands, and while the early chanter was bad, the tuning of this band was tighter and held better than the other competitors, save fmm. In comparison, the early E is better than off drones
the judging this year is HORRENDOUS.
