Which corps performed a piece with the word 'Rite' in its title?

• A. Cadets 2013
• B. Blue Devils 2013
• C. Phantom Regiment 2012
• D. SCV 2013

Answer: (B)

The question tests recognizing repertoire by title in a drum corps year. A piece with the word “Rite” in its title points to a performance of Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring, a work that has appeared in many corps shows. In 2013, the Blue Devils included a segment based on or titled The Rite of Spring, making the word appear in the show’s title. None of the other options in those years feature a piece with that exact title. So the Blue Devils in 2013 is the best match for a show containing a “Rite” in its title.
