About the show

The 2004 edition of the Irondale Marching Knights from New Brighton, MN marks their 15th competitive season. This year the Marching Knights perform contemporary wind band pieces by Samuel Hazo, Philip Sparke and Alfred Reed to present their show entitled “IT'S ABOUT TIME.” The Marching Knights use each piece to explore different aspects of time: passing time - hours and minutes, reflection - decades and years, deadlines - seconds and moments.

"Time is what keeps everything from happening at once."

Musical selections are Ride by Samuel Hazo, “Lento” from Dance Movements by Philip Sparke, and Symphony for Brass and Percussion by Alfred Reed.

Irondale will be performing at several competitions throughout Minnesota and at Valley Fest in Des Moines, IA as well as the BOA Super Regional in St Louis, MO this season. We would like to thank all of our parents and boosters for all of their assistance during this season and to our alums and fans for your continual enthusiasm and support of this activity and our program. Everyone at Irondale wishes all competing bands the very best this season!
