Apocalypse Now!
Repertoire
(Original Music)
During the Pre-Show, all of the different sections of the band will be gathered as sections "warming up" while our two main characters (man and woman in the guard) are sitting by a TV listening to a broadcast that the end of the world is here as disasters strike the whole world.
As the news is broadcast the band gathers in a block formation and chaos breaks out as the band (world) doesn't know how to handle the news. And our two main characters are lost within the chaos of the band trying to reunite again.
During the 2nd movement (ballad) things slow down and the band seperates into sectionals and has their own section feature as the other sections kneel in prayer.Our main characters locate each other and embrace as the band plays the last note of the ballad.
In the 3rd movement the band accepts the innevitable and gathers together. Trying to play happy tunes, the low brass plays dark chords giving a minor feel to the music. As the end nears, the band gathers together in scatter drill with the two main characters in the center of the band. The band plays a clashing chord, the climax of the show; then suddenly ends and the whole band falls to the ground as the world ended.
