YES! FINALLY!! I LOVE THIS PIECE (if you can't tell....). Brings me back to freshman year of high school, 9 years ago. I played 3rd Clarinet but was holding it down. Robert W Smith is such a fantastic composer! I hope to meet him in person some day to tell him how much I appreciate his work
It's like you take into the storm and great locomotive chase and then put them together, but ironically this song is older than both of them. So this time two of my favorite Robert W. Smith's pecies came from this one.
We got to perform this during All Region. Omg I died the first day, especially with the sight reading. I enjoyed finally having more people in my section. Any other lonely Bassoonist out there?
o bama I have, I’ve played trumpet for 2 years and played alto sax for 6. I know how it can hurt, but still, positioning of mouth doesn’t depend on instrument skill
oh dear that had to hurt i feel you there we were supposed to play moscow 1941 but then covid hit, we played this back in 2018 for my 8th grade spring concert
I played tenor sax on this 18 years ago in 8th grade, and--thanks to the typo in the trombone part that my band director liked to joke about--to this day I still intentionally mix up the words "vicious" and "viscous"
Ugh I'm so excited to play this for festivals, I love this song piece, I'm a clarinet player and I play 3rd clarinet for it and my friend plays 2nd clarinet Edit: I am in my 2nd year of highschool and I am a 1st clarinet player🎉 Another edit: R.I.P Robert W Smith. You were the most amazing music composers for us and my highschool band absolutely loves you're talent. You're soul is now of musical joy and we are honering you by playing Encanto
Just wondering why an A clarinet? Maybe to allow an aspiring orchestra clarinettist to get some experience on the intonation on an A without playing with the strings? Or just for it’s slightly darker sound? Either way, cool!
I'm a clarinet player, freshman at Avon High School. I don;t know how I can do this because our school got put back to E-learning for a while. It's REALLY hard to learn a piece by zoom... help
We are playing this for state band contest. I'm an 8th grader in high school band and I'm really stressed out because I'm not used to playing stuff like this.
JESUS CHRIST THE FLUTE PART NEARLY KILLED ME 😭😭😭
Which part?
@@adamtherobloxian9974probably measures 31-39 lol bc that’s like the hardest part it took me sooo long to get it down 😭
@@CharlotteTK. i play the timpani for that part so its easy 💀💀 (for context, im talking about being in a band class)
It’s about time I get to play melody as a bass clarinet
Same
contra alto clarinet didn't get it though some bs lmao
Nice I play bass clarinet as well I feel like we're the forgotten section.
Same dude
A great time for Bass Clarinetist indeed!
I remember playing this in High School. Rip Robert W. Smith.
WAIT- HE DIED😳😭
@@bluesteno64yeah :( last year
I played this in 7th grade and I still have the sheet music.
I play this tomorrow wish me luck guys
Forgot to update, went well, had to play from memory cause I only had one sheet
Why is it that this guy always makes great music?

I'm a freshman in high school and I'm 3rd clarinet on this piece
I’m in 7th grade and I’m playing the 3rd part for clarinet.... :P
Let's go 3rd clarinet
Yep same
I played this piece my freshman year on the piccolo (I’m a senior in high school) and I loved this piece

I can’t wait to learn this for my next concert :3
Smith has a lot of obsessions. Storms, songs, Ritual, Magic, Steam Technology running away, the list goes on.
Steam tech running away Im dyingggg😂😂😂😂😂
@@inspiredbymusic2845 IKR!
Playing this as first tenor is like a life changing experience
agreed
God I love Robert W Smith's music, it's so cool 😩
I love measure the whole part for measure 31 that whole part is amazing to play- Alto Saxophone
I remember playing this in yr 5, love your music, brings back memories
5:08 literally the best part of this piece
FR
liar
@@poopfanpoopfan3332 then inform me, what is the best part?
@@newmariobrothers4617 2:00-4:00 i believe
@@luck1luvr the slow section
5:15 my favorite part ❤❤❤
We got to perform this during All Region. Omg I died the first day, especially with the sight reading. I enjoyed finally having more people in my section. Any other lonely Bassoonist out there?
my best friends a bassonist lol
he's on his own when we play this-
We played this for all region symphonic band. We sight read it all first try. We then cleaned it up and performed. This piece was the best
I wish I got to play this for region lol but I would’ve 100% failed
This reminds me a little bit of Into the Storm but that might just be because they are both by the same composer
Robert smith has a thing for having similar sounding pieces, all of them sounding amazing
Played this in HS over 20years ago. I still love this.
Same.
I play this on the French Horn and it’s so Much fun lol
So do I and I always crack up laughing at the last horn flutter part
i’m playing this song right now for wind ensemble in 7th grade and i play the french horn so yeah i can relate for sure
Me too we, finally get to play an important part
About to play this on all city honor band wish me luck!
Echo Creation ur trash kid
The clarinets at 0:38 oMFGGGG I PLAY CLARINET AND THAT PART HURTS MY MOUTH SO MUCH😭😭
I used to play clarinet in 6TH GRADE and it was not hard
oHaeItsShae or maybe just not suck at clarinet
o bama stop bullying her, the way her mouth feels doesn’t have anything to do with your skill at an instrument
s0n4r it does if you play too loud or hold your mouth wrong it hurts a whole shitload more I bet you never even played a horn instrument
o bama I have, I’ve played trumpet for 2 years and played alto sax for 6. I know how it can hurt, but still, positioning of mouth doesn’t depend on instrument skill
Clarinets and Mallets is my new favorite combo!
I played marimba on this when we performed it for State competition. It was such a fun part.
Me and my band mates have to play this everyday and practice it because we can’t get the fast parts. I’m a flute player btw❣️
Grace Giles i’m a flute player tooooo!!
I mean, I bet you’ve already played it but good luck anyways/ how’d the concert go?
nobody cares ♥️
@@jaeheekang yes, there are many flute players in the world
I wish I saw some newer comments of ppl who are also flutes T-T (I play flute too)
Got to play this in band, i loved it, rest in peice robert
one of, if not my favorite concert piece i've ever played
Damn, apparently my band director studied under him, R.I.P. Robert W. Smith, he was indeed a W man.
It just goes all the way back to the beginning because of that sign from so far in the piece
The cota?
3:42 that transition back to the 12th measure is just 🧑🍳💋👌
This is so fun to play
Our band just had moa this week Tuesday and we played this for one of our songs and we got all 1s and 1 in cite reading
Played this during competition and got 1st place overall
I’ve been selected against my will for honor band and this one of the pieces 😭 I have one day to look over it 😭
Justin McElroy's high school band brought me here.
Mathieu P don’t give a shit
@@person5480 exactly. You take shits not give them, I cant believe people like this thank you for calling him out on his bs
Omg my band director let us hear this piece today and I immediately fell in love😍😍😍
7th grade was truly such a simple time
when i played this back in middle school, when the pause occurred the audience started clapping and then we continued playing. pretty funny
Played this song for my band's competition as a freshman. I was on Alto Sax 1. This song was really hard! However this song was really fun to play!
1:11 my favourite part, also one of the most challenging parts of this piece. super stoked to premiere this at issma
I am doing this for my highschool symphonic band, as a bari sax player, i feel sorry for the clarinets. But also my part is ridiculous. 😂😂😂
hi justin
YAY BASS CLARINETS RULE!!!

PR?
My favorite piece from 8th grade
I'm in eight grade playing this piece, I'm a oboe, my mouth wants to die, I love it, not the like 30 measure rest that repeats
The baritone goes hard on this one
Assessment concert here we come😭
The flute solo tho * CHEF KIZ
As soon as I heard 1:21 I knew it was Robert w. Smith
Because it sounded like into the storm
we all did i have played at least one of his songs every year of school
1:15 is mine
@@isaackimble9294 he always gives the woodwinds crazy lines
Not to mention the excessive use of low reed and pipe instruments like bass clarinet and flute
im playing this peace right now and i love this so much ( im an alto sax player) this is difficult though
This so good on bari sax
i love this soonngggg
I play tuba and this song is very fun
Im playing this for a festival my 8th grade band got invited to!

Tenor sax part goes hard
ANOTHER TENOR SAX
TIS A MIRACLE
TENOR SAX GANG

Sounds kinda similar to buffalo dances
Into the storm but easier
1:11
And bassoons are once again stuck with baseline…
Finally not the bass clarinets for once. You guys get your melodies in orchestra.
Euphonium part was easily the best, aside from that bass clarinet and clarinet part.
Orchestra kids clicking on this wondering why its a grade 3 instead of a grade 4: 😟
Trumpet lol
Clipzzz Zambi3 sksksks hi mason
@@prblmmedioxre hi dana😂
Hi Mason
Hey Dana
Trumpet it's really cool especially the 2nd time in measure 20
Do you know the best part about this song is that Not an electric bass in sight 😌😇
