While the trailer doesn't reveal any concrete information about the show, a press release put out on the Madison Scouts website gives fans more insight into this season's production:
The Madison Scouts present their 2023 production titled The Sound Garden. Influenced by the Seattle-based rock band “Soundgarden”, who are themselves named for an aural-based art installation, the show’s intent is to combine an energetic combination of musical styles, sounds, and visual textures to create and cultivate a blooming garden of sound.
The article later goes on to describe the musical inspiration behind the show and drops details on the repertoire for the program, teasing the show as having "a creative soundtrack anchored by selections from the rock group Soundgarden, as well as big band repertoire, sourced from both contemporary and classic jazz composers." The repertoire for 'The Sound Garden' includes:
- Rusty Cage by Chris Cornell/Soundgarden
- La Mer by Claude Debussy
- Hold Music by Jacob Mann
- Black Hole Sun by Chris Cornell/Soundgarden
- 23 Degrees North, 82 Degrees West by Bill Russo/Stan Kenton
“We bring to the field a show with a lot of power and energy right from the start of the production,” says Program Coordinator Jason Robb. “Our priority in design was to give our membership a show that can connect with the audience emotionally and provide an opportunity to entertain fans night after night as we make our way through this summer's DCI tour.”
Fans should get excited because, from the looks of it, this is going to be a memorable season for the Madison Scouts!
