My school is doing Somniphobia. Its a really dark, minor piece. And we're going to have a bed as a prop, and from what I heard its going to be the first year the marching band will use props, so it'll be interesting!

freshman year: Music of Gustav Holst: included Moorside March, 2nd Suite in F, Song of the Blacksmith, Jupiter
sophomore year: Music of Leonard Bernstein: included Candide, Lonely Town, New York New York
this year: "An American Salute" (apparently the title might change) purportedly in honor of VA's 400th aniversary

we're all a little skeptical about this year's show.

Freshman year: Reflections by Richard Saucedo
Sophomore year: Clocks by John Meehan
Junior year: Pompeii by Key Poullan
Senior year (this yeaaaaar. ;D): The Legend of Atlantis by Key Poullan

2 years ago: Queen
1 year ago: James Bond
This year: shhh! cant tell yet!

We just did The Best of the Doors. Dunno what we're doing this year yet. I'm a freshman but i know the years before I joined they've done The Incredibles and Styx

Our band has done:

1st Year: It had Reve Rouge in it, alone with A La Lune and Distorted

2nd Year: Mission Impossible

woo i love marching :]

9th: tito puente
10th: the newsies musical
11th: chuck mangione

chuck was by far my favorite and i cant wait until next year since they have gotten better every time

9th- Takin it to the streets (with What a fool believes, Minute by minute, and this is it)

10th- quidam

11th- musical mayhem (random songs that had nothing to do with each other)

this year we have no idea yet!

Well, Fresman year: FIRE AND ICE! (all russian, Opener was the russian national athem, then Battle On The Ice, then Fire of Eternal Glory, then Shostakovich's symphony #9, the allegretto part)
Then this year(sophmore year) Immortal Beloved(opener was Bethovans Pathatique piano sonata, then Moonlight sonata, then Ode to Joy.) that worked quite well. My band director has connections to Phantom Regiment, and J.D. Shaw and Jamie Thompson.

next year's show is going to be- The Beatles

freshmen year: the nightmare before christmas
sophmore: various: mission imposible, gladiator, the patriot
junior: carmen
senior(this year): fantasia 2000

Openner - "MY" Favorite Things
2nd - "MY" Funny Valentine
3rd - "MY" Girl
4th - "MY" Sharona
Closer - "MY" Way.

It was really good. If you want to see the show, you can see on our website. robinsonbands.org
