I heard Robert W. Smith passed away recently, I played this song in HS, and it gave me such an appreciation for his work. Thanks for the music Mr. Smith
Mine too! This song was a fav at our school and was played each year. I had the solo all 4 years and our director was really great by letting me play with the phrasing to make it my own.
What grade? Usually middle school bands opt for the Tempest in my experience. I’d assume you’re in 8th grade, but do take a listen to Into the Storm. It’s like if this song and the Tempest were blended together and set to an 11
@@t-greenrock404I play baritone in 7th grade and we learned this song really well in a couple weeks. We are now playing crush by Robert w smith. Crush is way better
@@t-greenrock404or The Great Locomotive Chase. All of them are great pieces and are a testament of Smith’s talent for writing music for all skill levels.
The performers did good, but I felt there ensemble was to top heavy. I play tuba and I was listening for them and I could hear them, but they weren’t as prominent in the recording.
I know if you were playing this on 🎺 and it would sound great. I play 1st and it's awesome. Love this song and I am playing this on the arts festival on May 13 2023.

I played this in 1998 and it remains my favorite to this day.
BASS CLARINET PART BE AMAZING!!!
I played bari sax but I played bass clarinet in middle school and it’s awesome
1:02 nah who squeaked☠️
LOLL
I'm the only clarinet in our band and the amount of solos for us is just auuuugh
Same buddy, that's why I'm here.
My fingers are going to cramp so hard during those repeating notes
@@tatertot8778 im playing this piece and once u get it down its no problem
Im in jazz band and I play drums and every year we have like 4 solos and it sucks, I cant imagine wiggling your fingings like that for months on end.
wa wa wa! wa wa wa wa wa wa!
1:01 what a mood
tbh
My first solo! Alto Sax 🎷! Special memories!

The band is playing this for all county 2024 and I am trumpet 2
1 st Flute part is fun🤣
It is! My HS played this and it's still my favorite
I am playing this for middle school and first chair it is fun
The alto sax part around measure 111 or something is my favorite part of the song.
Maelstrom has to be one of my favorite words

1:55 this part of trumpets is divine
2:44 is so amazing
Wait, where's the percussion? It really doesn't come together without the percussion.
facts
They're there
Just very quiet
You can hear the snare
That shaker thing
And that bass drum
I completely agree
@@ToasterStr00dle Why so quiet T-T
and the suspended cymbal
the one clarinet squeak....
my worst fear atm
The one little squeak and the percussion not paying attention😂😅
the flute is me and it’s 😩💕🤌
the trumpet is me and i mean 😏😏😎
@@gaiean same as me. The 1st part is definitely more better.
better than me ill admit that
Hello fellow Kadena High School band folk! Baritone represent lol
TC or BC
Playing this at lgpe soon
Moo
Liz Phelan I agree fully
🐮
no
cow go moo
me go sad
Oink
Me and my band play this and we are in 7th grade
Bass clarinet part could use “a little more”. still fun none the less.
good god i have to play this in like 2 months at a concert (and im the french horn so that makes it worse) (i have to do that solo like a minute in 😬)
I’m a French horn too and I don’t acc have the band period that plays this so I can’t practice with them it’s actually pain😭
0:26
Squeak
1:01 a mood yeah right
Good song. Very boring for a tuba player though (literally two alternating notes for over 100 measures
just not outstanding
