The 2026 Production
Twisted
Selections from and inspired by the music of Bernard Herrmann. One band. One field. Every frame of suspense.
Behind the show
We distort. Unravel.
Contort. Twist.
Twisted reimagines the film scores of Bernard Herrmann for the marching field, from the shrieking strings of Psycho to the hypnotic spirals of Vertigo. Herrmann scored the movies that taught audiences to hold their breath, and this fall the Leander High School Marching Band puts that tension in motion.
The design unfolds across the season. Every rehearsal adds a layer, every contest sharpens the picture. Watch the reveal, then come see it live under the Friday lights.
