A very happy (belated) birthday to one of the giants of the Brass Band world. Thanks for all the wonderful music (and nerve wracking euphonium solos! 😅) and for the music still to come!
Tonight its out turn for a tribute to you. We will play this piece, the land of.., elegy and ' not before time'....we will do our best to make it a great performance :)...greatings Jouster Fanfare Orchester
I’ve played the brass band version several times on both Eb and Bb bass. What an awesome piece, and the wind band version is just as good! Happy Birthday Mr. Sparke!
Hi, everyone. I heard this piece of music for the first time; I didn't know it before. Thank you very much for the end of the year. The 'basses' gave me goose bumps on my neck and shoulders several times; this effect was reinforced by the use of BOSE. Thank you for that too. Really completely convincing music to be able to go into the year 2022 strengthened. Thank you very much.
For some reason, this sounds very American to me even though I know it is not. I see a bustling town of the Old West with horses and wagons and barking dogs playing with children. The Marine Band has really found the fun in this piece!
Great performance and recording. Greetings from Austria! Wouldn´t be surprised if it were the Sennheiser MKH800s that contributed to this great soundstage😊
What a GREAT birthday surprise!! Thanks so much for this. Best wishes, Philip Sparke
Wow this needs to be pinned. Happy Seventieth birthday!
I heard this as an 8th grader back in the 90s. I've been a big fan of your music since then. BTW, your euphonium concertos are hard work 👍

I am a British brass band fan but also appreciate wind bands. This is a wonderful piece brilliantly played. Thanks to all concerned.

Stunning performance!

THANK YOU
Maravilhoso! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Phillip Sparke’s stuff is so good. I was familiar with the brass band version of this, but the wind band setting is very nice too; bravo!
Love this piece. It was actually on the required excerpt list for my first army band audition.
Great performance and recording. Greetings from Austria! Wouldn´t be surprised if it were the Sennheiser MKH800s that contributed to this great soundstage😊
I could listen to them play all day I guess because of being a Marine

I love this piece, and have played it many times, but boy, is it a bugger for the French Horns!! But off course, made to sound easy in this recording
Nice sound !
Who was the conductor?
Anyone know what grade this is?...I assume Grade 5 or Grade 6 on the UIL prescribed music list
Says here Grade 4: www.philipsparke.com/jubilee-overture-concert-band
