You asked for it! Here’s a show that we think works as the back-drop to the futuristic world of Halo!
The fourth Halo has been discovered in the 13th dimension, so you can rock the house with this intense show. It'll keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.
It is the year 2587
Humanity has long been at war with the terrifying alien civilization that collectively calls itself the Covenant. This monstrous conglomerate of warlike species sees Humanity as a form of heresy against their religion. The only defense in this terrible and destructive conflict is the Spartan military force. Hear this battle for survival, between two species of the universe, rage on in the music.
This show has a superb balance between flashy segmental features and full-blown ensemble intensity.
A well-rounded show requires variety. "Halo 13" is uniquely constructed and gives the drum line a chance to bust out some different implements (ie; Rubber Tip Sticks and Dreds) towards the middle of the show.
Join our world.
