Well I see the Colonel from the President's Own has found a new home. I always like the way he interprets Holst and Grainger, Sousa, too. . I don't what his new title is But I wish him all the best taking the Michigan Symphonic Band to new heights in their performances.
No one has answered your question but it's one on a part because when Holst wrote this for military bands, they were one on a part back in the day. The band is much bigger but they are playing this piece with the idea Holst had in mind when writing it.
Superb. It's almost like the conductor used to direct the Marine Band or something...

The clarinet solo in movement 2 was played so well
I'm playing this for band too
Very nice solo playing. Especially the euphonium in the first mvmt. Beautiful tone and phrasing.
That's one amazing group of musicians.
SO good! All about the music.
Can't wait to see how this recording is compared to the one with the small band
Very clean articulation!
The conductor is from my hometown
I swear I recognize one of the saxophone players from his perspective of Sleigh Ride a few years back
Bravo. This is so great!
Bass trombone at 10:25 (director grudgingly approves at 10:29 :) )
4:41
11:22 BRAVO PICCOLO!!!! 🤍
Very jolly 👍
sounds good
how do I get those emojis
Great sounding! Im curious. Is this an ensemble with the intent to have only one per part? It seems sparse. Just curious :D
He is the formal director of the President’ own, US marine band.
Fennell recorded this with only one on a part, both at Eastman and again with Cleveland.
