Description:

    Everything old is new again!  This head-first exploration of public domain literature uses 8 well known-classical repertoire, but the arrangements are filled with unexpected twists and fresh-sounding contemporary treatments of familiar material. The Classics moves swiftly through arrangements of timeless music like Symphony No. 40 (Mozart, 1788), Canon in D (Pachelbel, 1680), and the Mars - The Planets (Holst, 1918), just to name a few! 

    This show can be a great way to introduce the history of classical music and iconic composers to your ensemble and inspire creativity with the modern approach to classical music. The full details of composers/arrangements used are listed in the score.

    This show was originally commissioned for Chino Hills HS for the fall of 2012 and was released for the 2014 indoor season as a custom version adapted for indoor percussion. The Classics was the WGI A Class Bronze medalist with Edwardsville HS in 2014.
