Horns: Bells up, sounding like beasts and destroying everyone within a five mile radius Cameraman: shows flutes, pans across the strings, zooms in on the trombones
All this would not have been possible without Maestro Noe's thorough knowledge of the score and his patient rehearsal technique that is no less than genius. He DID have the score completely memorized, even in rehearsal, and his precise beat patterns and expressive cues are all a textbook for anyone studying this monumental score. Be sure to watch the video of the final rehearsal to view the Maestro's amazing control of the orchestra and their intense, at times delicate response. These students had to be TAUGHT this music (at times, measure by measure) in two and a half days, since most had NO IDEA how their part fit with the totality. I was there for several rehearsals and the performance and am still thrilled by the success of these amazing students and their superb teacher/conductor!
What blows me away, besides the actual performance, is the conductor did it all from memory. He did not have his sheet music in front of him. If he did, it appeared to be hidden well.
I’m from Kansas, but my cabin mate at Interlochen this past summer was the 2nd chair bassoonist in the orchestra, which is crazy because he was a freshman at the time. I long to play in an all state ensemble as advanced as this one. If 20% of the players in the Kansas all state orchestra were at the TMEA all state level, I’d be happy
When the All State Symphony did Shostakovich 10 several years ago the horns were incredible. To be fair, Texas always has great horn sections. This year was no exception. Fantastic performance for only having 3 days to rehearse.
@@chloeyang8660 An Alpine Symphony was equally amazing as The Rite of Spring. Both pieces are super fun to play and listen to, but it's more impressive to say "I played The Rite of Spring in high school" than it is with An Alpine Symphony since the Sacre is more prestigious. Who could forget its unforgiving devilishly difficult rhythm?? But mastering it and performing it, just the satisfaction and overall sense of accomplishment from performing Millennium Canons and The Sacre and saying "We just did that," is so rewarding, even more so since we did it as high schoolers. Thanks to everyone who made these recordings possible, including our inspiring conductors! But you're right, nothing will ever come close to our Alpine or Sacre recordings! Thanks Jung-Ho Pak and Kevin Noe
okay why is this so good can i move to texas Anyways, this is the first time I’ve seen a youth orchestra play the original version, and you guys played it amazingly!! Love it!
Not really the attitude to have about music education. Definitely Texas produces some amazing quality, but no other state is horrible at their All State level. Florida, Michigan, Indiana, California, Nevada all produce great All State ensembles. Obviously this is a phenomenal performance, but that competitive attitude is super toxic to the arts.
@@PlushChronicles I agree. Im from Illinois and the music program here builds amazing musicians and has in wind bands, orchestras, jazz, etc for decades. Our All State groups are amazing as well as most states. Texas bands are actually viewed as a negative stereotype here. When you call something a texas band, you are referring to having many many players with not enough dynamic contrast, with great technical ability, but lacking emotion in the music. I feel that might not be exactly true, but the point is all places around the country have their strengths and weaknesses and Texas bands are not all without fault.
Had given up on US H.S. musicians. Everywhere seems lees than when I was that age. (probably a Japanese grade school doing this from memory somewhere here). But, this was great.
Oh hell yea, this orchestra is some of the best musicians possibly in the nation. All of these kids are prodigies...you cant make it into symphony orch if you arent. Im a pretty darn talented cellist yet Im not sure ill make it into even the lowest orchestra. Then again for cello its insane competition.
Is this the whole state? I'm from Florida, we do entire state here but from viewing the Texas all state band performances, the state was split into something like 6 separate sections. Also, is this 9th-12th grade or only 11th-12th?
Well, it's kind of complicated. It is the whole state, but the performing groups are broken up into sections, and the audition process is also broken up into sections. When you first audition it's within your region (lets say 50 mile radius), and then a cut advances to a bigger audition region, and another cut advances to all-state. The evening before the convention starts you undergo another 3 auditions to determine your state chair. From there you have your choice of Symphony, Philharmonic, Symphonic band, Sinfonietta, Concert band. But there are also 2 path-ways to state depending on how big your school district is. If you belong to a smaller school district you can opt to audition the "5A" route, for which there are a couple "5A" all-state groups, but you can't join the "6A" groups unless you audition through that pathway. That sounds convoluted lol.
Great camera work. It caught all of the conductors' cues and all of the sections of which they were given to. Also the sound never sounded as if one section alone was leading the orchestra.
Orchestral committee: How many players do you want in this orchestra, Mr. Noe? Mr. Noe: YES ... No one: *The dance plays itself* Sacrilegious boiiiis!!! We did that #twosetviolin
Hi marky! I really loved the 2018 alpine symphony performance by the TMEA all state symphony and I can’t find it anymore. I don’t know if RUclips took it down from your channel or if you took it down but can you email it to me if possible please? If you reposed you this I will reply to the comment with my email to see if you can email me the alpine symphony performance:)
Since one euphonium player was given a bass trumpet for this piece, which chair of the flutes was given the alto flute, and for clarinet in a, and for piccolo trumpet? Idk
V15_ first chair trumpet was given a piccolo trumpet, we were told to bring one to be prepared so he and a few of us did but they still provided one. Others, I don’t know.
If you make all-state orchestra (doesn't matter what state), the clarinetist is expected to have the A clarinet with them because there are times when the music asks them to switch between the Bb/A.
@@markyochoa Haha how did you get that? Almost all of the TMEA videos got DMCA'd on RUclips? I had one up for 6 years before they came and took it down!

Nope. From memory. He has a true passion for this piece.
Kevin Noe conducted this from memory with the UT Symphony at TMEA back in the early 2000s. Hes known it like the back of his hand for a long time.
Excellent performance. Camera operators: KNOW YOUR MUSIC PLEASE. The camera work is egregious.

Stravinsky is a monster.This student orchestra is incredible to perform such an abstract piece.
1:27 THE BASS CLARINET DUO ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Easily one of the best All State Symphony Orchestras I’ve heard
First TMEA in history where you can actually hear the horns
When the All State Symphony did Shostakovich 10 several years ago the horns were incredible. To be fair, Texas always has great horn sections. This year was no exception. Fantastic performance for only having 3 days to rehearse.
i’ve never been happier to be a texas horn

It tickles me when the strings have to count like the rest of us! HAHA
Hahahaha as if we actually did
Lol try being viola in any other piece

Best All-State Symphony in the US 2019 fight me

NYSSMA comes close sometimes but this is better
Wait which state is this?
@@lucashoffses9019 This recording is Texas NYSSMA is New York
@@lucashoffses9019 WHAT THE WHAT HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT STATE THIS ISSSSS 😂😂😂
They are indeed amazing. So clean with such a large ensemble.
things we did: that (but we can see ourselves this time😎)
The best experience was playing Sacrificial Dances by ourselves (but ofc we still love Maestro Noe)!
the part where he walked out on us was gold
Better than Alpine?

@@chloeyang8660 never
I loved his reaction when he walked in and we were playing the dance without him lol
Also rip to the people who barely played in this piece, talking to the harp players, the piano player, and the bass trumpet
Of course I'd find u in this vid smh
Jason Tran who are you?
There are no harps in this piece
Or piano for that matter
Glad that you’re back!!!!
okay why is this so good can i move to texas
Anyways, this is the first time I’ve seen a youth orchestra play the original version, and you guys played it amazingly!! Love it!
No state comes close...maybe in 15-20 years, perhaps longer until others play Rite or Alpine.
Iowa couldn’t do Rite, but it is still a dang good all state for... Iowa. When I was in orchestra we did An American in Paris and Mahler 1!
Look upon this, other states, and weep. Texas HS music programs rule. Great job, you guys. Camera crew, eh... not so much

Kevin Noe conducted the Oregon all state orchestra I played in. He’s such a god

JK
I know this is the professional recording and all, but I really like how I can hear myself and other parts way better in this version (5th horn)
6 horn parts?
@@obinnanwakwue5735 there's 8 horn parts in rite of spring but there was 9 of us in the section

Nice opening scene with all rests for the contrabass😆....oh, but excellent excellent work by the young musicians and maestro!!!

They sound insane

Holy Horn-section!
rip euph/bass trumpet(?) player, practically just sitting there the entire time
Yep rip for him
don't know the conductors name, but he GETS this music. audio is however sub standard
Correct on the conductor... But this is the official audio recording dubbed over video... So are you saying the symphony itself is sub standard?
absolutely not. listen to the bbc proms Holzt Planets w Edward Gardner. THAT is excellent audio
Oh man these high schoolers dont have the same audio set up as the BBC proms imagine
