Description:

   "These are the ties that bind" is the final quote and of the show and the through line the connects each movement. Movement 1 focuses on physical bonds reflecting a dramatic struggle musically, the emotional bonds of movement 2 come to life with music that is hopeful and fulfilling, and the common bonds that bring people together are found in movement 3. 

    Bound has great potential for full ensemble integration of music, drill and props.  The original production utilized long elastic ties/ropes to bind the ensemble together providing a visual representation to the musical concept.  This show was a WGI Open Class finalist with Dorman HS in 2011 under the title Build.
    This show was originally commissioned by the Chino Hills HS marching band in the fall of 2009 and was released for the 2011 indoor season as is a custom version adapted for indoor percussion
