Marching Bands do a lot of covers. for example, there's a Styx show on www.arrangerspublishingcompany.com and I've heard tons of bands do other shows.

Thing with Marching band covers, though, is that after I listen to them for a while, I start prefering them over the original. Of course, only if the band is good...

I once heard a pep band do a cover of Black Sabbath. It was quite...interesting. Zaia was on one of the horns, I forget which.

When I saw the title I wondered if it was the U of A...World's First Alternative Music Marching Band! Although the audio quality leaves a bit to be desired :(

When I was there we did Pink Floyd, Smashing Pumpkins, and The Who for our main shows. Also had a smattering of other things such as Carmina Burana. Year before I started was Red Hot Chili Peppers.

I'm curious about how you guys managed to march Carmina Burana and which movements you used.
