The 2019 Concord Marching Spiders Present...
NOIR
Our theme was developed in order to explore the darker themes of life. The theme from the Black Swan explores the traditional darkness you expect from hearing a powerful symphonic work. It really sets the stage for our production. Feeling Good as performed by Michael Buble is a really great Jazz tune that explores the night life. Imagine yourself in a smokey room, throwing dice and having a good time. This tune transitions to Nights in White Satin by the Moody Blues. The night... dreams... wishing for something more. And Paint it Black... More than just the literal sense. Darkness surrounds the life of many during the late 60's, especially those affected by the Vietnam War.
The band members are really excited to play some really powerful music this year and cant wait to start camp in a few weeks!
