Series: MakeMusic Symphonic Band
Grade 5
Embark on this musical road trip on the legendary Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica, including references to the music of its heyday in the 1940s, the quirky attractions, neon signs, and the towns that have since faded following the end of the fabled highway's era. From the opening symphonic fanfare to inspiring jazz and everything in between, Sixty-Six, by Robert Sheldon, plays surprisingly well and is guaranteed to bring down the house!

Sheldon cookin' with these pieces man
I am about to play this in my all county band with Robert Sheldon conducting
Congrats, how it goods well
i think we’re in the same all county band lmao
same
@@ajquestion9559 Most likely also what section are you in?
@@alisepzo What section are you in?
finally a high E above the staff for bari sax! we never get high notes like that
I just want to say that Robert, you did a great job of capturing the spirit of Route 66. The piece makes me smile and is all I hoped it would be. Looking at my pictures, I'd probably change a couple around and switch out a couple, but there are just so many great photographic subjects along Route 66, it is hard to choose. Your music, however, is so reflective of Route 66, that nothing needs to change. And thank you for providing a piece of music that is right on in difficulty that I was envisioning: something to challenge a good band, but still something that less a experience band can aspire towards. It was a pleasure working with you and hope we can do another one.
Wow! Just wow! Love that 50s/60s TV show big band sound.
Alachua All County Gang 😎
gang 🫡
AYO I am from the county east of y'all. Legit Legit. How is it doing?
@@WolfgangXP65-67 all county was a success! I’m sad this was my last year, but hopefully I’ll have the opportunity to play more fun music in college!
@@SalemXenon awesome 😁. I took part in my county's honor band with one and a quarter's day worth of rehearsal. We didn't play this, but I am begging my director to play this one day.
My county played
Palatka Port March,
Forevermore by Christina Huss,
Fortress of stone (easy piece idk why)
West Highland Sojourn by Robert Sheldon,
And Hollywood Milestones (sure you know).
It was ok but at the time I was in an emotional sinkhole due to a poor reaction on my part to a social situation. Again, we were given less than 24 hours of rehearsal so it couldn't have been better but honestly, we would have been better if we had the time. I am glad yours was a success.
I’d recommend this
Same.
3:10 my favorite part
i should show this to my band teacher lmao(gl to wind ensemble even though ill be there nest year)
such a good road trip piece. definitely will send to my high school music teacher next year for my symphonic band music request. the part violins 1 would most likely get is the flute/piccolo. for violins 2, they probably would get the oboe/english horn or a little bit of the clarinet parts. for violas, either the tenor or alto saxophone part. for cellos, probably the bari sax or euphonium part. for basses of course its the tuba part on the concert pitch. Ill help the down and up bows for the string parts so my music teacher doesn't have to do all the work by herself. i will also go for trombone 1 because of the solo part from glissing to G to E. we might have a violin player play the guitar solo part. im about to be a freshman in high school and this is something i would like to do for our spring concert of 2024.
those beats at the beginning are so hard to count
It’s a grade seven, so I would think it would be!

Sheldon Strikes again with a great work. Idk how but he still makes great works and will always add something new. I thought I would be the only one who would put acoustic guitar in a concert work (Check out Waterskating Dances Overture. The ballad is the best, the rest is ok since it's a lot of repetitions). He does it amazingly and not only does it make me want to continue putting guitar in concert works, but this piece is also just one of his best. A lot of musical textures and experimentation with not only instruments and sounds, but also genres to match the aesthetic of what the piece is depicting. This is true, Robert Sheldon is an immortal composer. ❤
i believe michael daugherty has an acoustic guitar in one of his pieces as well!! Bells for Stokowski has a small piccolo and guitar duet. Truly an astonishing piece, i recommend it!
Holy tenor part 😭

Jeez I feel bad for brass players.
For an 8 minute song, all those high notes must be pain.
Yeah lol. I feel that after playing a solo with high and low notes for Trombone lol. But I see you're referring to the Trumpets lol. Sheldon was never afraid to write higher notes that wouldn't usually be played otherwise. I still see high Gs being played for Trombone in this recent work, like how I saw them in Manatee Lyrics Overture in 1984 (or '86) and Southwest Saga in 1987, to Skydance in 2018 and this in 2023. Most melodic concert works today won't even dream of pulling notes above top F on Trombone. Not him though, (nor I since I placed top A on Trombone on my recent work that has been scored for two pianos unplayable for pianos, Lively Unknown Pt. I).
Even then, it still would be pain, but for those daring to make it through, it's a lot of fun. It just takes courage and confidence. And one day, the pain won't be felt when you are used to it.
Don’t feel so bad.
They CHOSE to play the instrument and with that comes consequences.
I clicked on this cuz of echo 😭
Idk man, this a lil weird
