2006 Marching Bengals
Last year the Marching
Bengals presented their Fall
2006 production titled: The Promise of
Living.
This show represents some of the
lesser known works of Aaron Copland. The
show opens with youthful optimism in An
Outdoor Overture. Gratitude and hope for a
better life are represented with The Promise
of Living. The show concludes with the
energy of The Red Pony and the triumph of
The Fanfare for the Common Man.

The 2005
Blaine High School Marching Bengals
In 2005 the Blaine High School Marching Bengals
were proud to bring you their fall
field show production entitled "La Nouba!"
This exciting production showcased some of
the most memorable music from the exciting
theatrical production of CIRQUE DU SOLEIL.
Four pieces were selected, they are:
"Distorted", "Reve Rouge", "A La Lune" and
"Urban".
Once upon a time...
A door opened and two worlds collided.
Dreams clashed with reality. The mundane
mixed with the marvelous.
It was no longer possible to tell where one
world began and the other ended.
This new place was called La Nouba.
