I'm learning performance techniques in my high school brass band, and I'm also learning composition from the teacher who comes to my lessons, and this is one of my favorite songs I've ever heard. I want to become a composer someday and write wonderful concertos like you.
In Japan, this product played by Kawaguchi City Ensemble Liberte in All Japan Band Competition 2023. They let our listen wonderful music.Their performance is very wonderful, cool, and hot. Mr. Day, I recommend their performance to you.
My band has the honor of preforming the 4th movement of this piece at Chicago Midwest this year! Mr. Day, I’ve never seen my friends/fellow musicians so in love with a piece that we’ve played as they are with Soul. You are a musical wizard. Love from the Westlake HS band💚
Zoe, thank you for the kind words and I'm so excited for Westlake's performance! I will be at Midwest and will hopefully get to come to one of the rehearsals and of course the concert. Best wishes to all of you.
Wow. Mr. Day, this piece is phenomenal. I’m in the University of Minnesota Wind Ensemble, and we are currently working on it. Without a doubt, it’s one of the coolest pieces I’ve ever had the opportunity to play. It’s so unique how you brilliantly infused jazz into a wind ensemble piece in such an intriguing way. We are really looking forward to your residency at the UMN next week!
I've been listening to this piece ever since the UWEC Wind Symphony played it, and I have to say- Of all the pieces I've ever heard and listened to, this is by far one of my absolute favorites. It's an absolute masterpiece, and a joy to listen to
Kevin - what a fantastic work you have added to the repertoire. I am so very glad you showed your first sketches of this to me way back at that 2019 Midwest Clinic. Myself and the musicians of the Brooklyn Wind Symphony cannot wait to begin working on this next month. Congratulations on completing this masterpiece.
Kevin, what an incredible piece! I've been having some fun learning the soprano sax part for this (UWEC Wind Symphony). You've merged many styles of music into this piece with grace and finesse. Wow, I can't wait to hear from you in October!
I heard a preview of this piece in the GMEA Virtual All-State Band earlier this year and have been waiting for the day I could hear a live performance of it ever since.
Around the 3 minute mark there is some references to the euphonium concerto he also composed. Or is it just me? I don't know it sounded similar I thought that was kind of cool.
Many composers can not make the forces of the large wind band sound unique when using traditional harmonic language. Mr. Day can. The orchestration of this piece is great and far out.

Love it, sounds straight out of Whiplash !!! Wonderful clarinet part and players :DD

How do I know when and where this masterpiece going to be performed in the future?
