Instrumentation Requirements

The more low brass on these two, the better.
  • Night on Bald Mountain
The more low brass the better. Also a strong front line.
  • The Batman Theme
Sounds best with a balanced band.

Roadmap

  • Theme from Jaws
The first 8 measures are the familiar "baa dum ... baa dum" which is cool, but too hard to hear. Start at measure 9.
  • Night on Bald Mountain
Again, the beginning is familiar and classic, but a little hard to hear in the stands sometimes. Also, with only 15 seconds, you hardly make it out of the opening. Start at measure 8.

History

  • Songs were sometimes unofficially referred to by their own number (eg: Night on Bald Mountain would be 0.23).
  • These songs were removed from the library when their contents were incorporated into the new cheer sheets in early 2007. It is unlikely this page will reappear in the active set.
