played this my junior year of high school with my sax quartet (i play bari), we challenged ourselves to memorize the whole piece and play it memorized at state. We got 1’s and till this day i can remember how nervous i was 😂 this isn’t a easy piece, so i give you props on making it sound amazing, good job guys
@@Julio-om5mi Thank you so much! Congrats to you on your musicianship and success! Memorizing a piece like this is definitely challenging, but it makes communicating and rehearsing much more effective. Me and Preston (the soprano) were seniors when we performed this, and Will and Spencer were sophomores. It's good that you can play such high level literature at a young age!
@@JoshuaTheClarinetGuy It was really challenging and i couldn’t had done it without the support of my peers, the alto and tenor of the sax quartet were sophomores, i was a junior at the time and our soprano was a senior. I graduated this year but those memories are going to live with me forever, music does bring people together.
@@Julio-om5mi Absolutely, music can unite people who speak different languages, have different beliefs, and beyond. I'm glad that you graduated high school with such a positive band experience! I'm a freshman Music Education major at UCO right now, and, by God's grace, I hope to share the love of music with others as an Oklahoma band director
If I heard this a room away or and started play I would’ve got chills
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

that bari is killing it! such good low register tone and strong but steady volume
@@turkeycat9864 Thank you so much, it's all by God's grace! The bari part in this piece is a lot of fun
i think those guys are pretty cool
Yeah, but the tenor sax is kind of meh though...
Jk, you're awesome bro 😎👊
@@JoshuaTheClarinetGuynah you were right first, he sucks
Another great recording of this piece is the Centauri saxophone sextet
Yes, I've heard them, they are incredible!
What state?
Oklahoma!
