The show announcement trailer gives fans a taste of the Mardis Gras/Louisiana-centered vibe that the show is likely to deliver based on the imagery throughout the video. In addition to the vibe of the show, the Mandarins also formally announced the repertoire for its 2024 program which includes the following musical selections:
- Selections from The Jungle and All Rise by Wynton Marsalis
- Agape by Nicholas Britell
- In the Sweet By and By by Joseph P Webster
- Lie to Me by Trombone Shorty
In previous announcements surrounding the repertoire, Mandarins had only released the composers/artists, not the individual pieces the corps will perform this summer.
Here's what Creative Director, Becca Anderson had to say about the 2024 program:
The talent that walked in the door this year for the Mandarins is stronger than anything we’ve seen. It’s literally off the charts. With that already setting a high bar, we knew we needed to bring something to the table to showcase who we are at the highest level. This year’s production is jam packed with variety, nuance, color, creativity, energy and full out excitement. We can’t wait to share Vieux Carré with the drum corps world.
Mandarins are building off a stellar 2023 season, where the Sacramento-based corps had their best-ever DCI World Championship finish, placing 6th overall (93.775) with its fan-favorite show, 'Sinnerman.'
