      @Zoey5374 2 года назад +1

      That's unfortunate, hopefully my band teacher doesn't get the bass clarinet part from the other band teacher. I play bass clarinet but my teacher doesn't have the bass clarinet part, so I get to play the 3rd clarinet part. Honestly after having this peice for a week I can play my part fairly well and would gladly continue with the 3rd clarinet part.

    If you have the instrumentation, go for the Douglas E. Wagner edition. 👍🏼 it’s much more interesting

    • @sweetICEmen
      @sweetICEmen 5 лет назад +1

      If you have the instrumentation you should go for the versions of either Henk Ummels or Roland Smeets. Much closer to the original. The trumpets in the beginning of Wagners edition just don't fit in my opinion. But that's just me. Glad you enjoyed it though ;)

    • @timgarcia7877
      @timgarcia7877 5 лет назад +2

      sweetICEmen I agree with going with Ummels, I was just considering if a young high school group could pull that arrangement off.

  • @Nakoda
    @Nakoda 5 лет назад +14

    This arrangement is so...how should I say it...dull and boring? When you hear a choir sing this it's with excitement and energy....this was just sad and pathetic...The marching band version was lit though having low brass as a main melodic feature in this bad move should have stuck to the roots on this one. You tried to perfect something that was perfected already. I pray this doesn't make Christopher Tin have a heart attack.

    • @chrislss8
      @chrislss8 5 лет назад +4

      As this is a Flex Band arrangement, the point is to go for pliability. This will allow you to play with limited instrumentation. I agree it is way more dull, but that makes it doable with an ensemble of 10, that many small schools have to deal with!
