Frontier Drum & Bugle Corps presents:

There And Back Again

The destination is not important; it is the journey.  Each trek involves different paths and directions, new and exciting challenges, and behind each door, a choice and an opportunity.  Where will it lead?   Where will it end?

"There and Back Again" takes Frontier down some familiar paths along with a few detours.  “Living in the Past” by Jethro Tull and clips from past Frontier productions are heard throughout the show, connecting where the corps started, it’s home, heritage, values, and it’s foundation.  The corps will then progress into the future.

Samuel Hazo's “Ride” opens the journey with optimism and drive, propelling the corps through contemporary jazz and symphonic sounds.

“I'll Be Seeing You” brings the emotions of a journey to the forefront.   This includes the longing and missing those who have traveled far or away, and hopeful wishes for a return home.

“Caravan” has long been associated with traveling.  Individuals never truly want to be alone, so the caravan is a safe place to take risks, knowing others are there to support, guide, and keep one on their path.

“Scootin' on Hard Rock” highlights the elation of approaching one’s destination.   The road may be bumpy (much like the road this piece is based upon), but it provides the necessary path.  The excitement is in finally arriving and enjoying that last stretch home.

Frontier's slogan is 'Our Heritage is Our Future.'  Knowing where you began is knowing where you are going.  It is a nod to remembering those who came before and laid the groundwork that stands today.  Heritage is important, but there is a drive into the future.  Bigger and better things lie ahead.   The corps is embarking on a journey.  Enjoy our travels.
