    One time Balmages came to rehearse with my band and he told us to give him 4 notes and we did. C,Db,G and F were the notes and he slowly walked to the piano and he started playing and my god it was the most amazing piece I have ever heard. He sat there for about four minutes and played the most beautiful and complex song I have ever heard...
    Edit: Oh my god. I’m sooo sorry for this embarrassing excuse of grammar. Ooooo, that’s horrific.

      I pretty much did the opposite, I started out a trombone player and switched to tuba. My band teacher basically told me that, "My time [as a trombone] has come." when you are in the best band in the school, if you don't have a tuba it just makes it sound top heavy.

It was the last time I got to see her even virtually before she succumbed to her disease, and she loved hearing the music, even if she wasn't really sure who I was.

    Played this piece back in middle school! Us clarinets had this inside joke that we used up until we went to high school, where whenever we'd listen to a song for the first time, and a hard-sounding part came up, we would always say "I bet this part is on measure 102", in reference to that dreaded clarinet part at around 3:08 in the video. It was a really fun piece to play, in all honesty, and I wish I could go back in time and do it all over again!

    Currently in the process of writing some stuff for a D&D campaign that involves a lot of worldbuilding for a location known as the Elemental Plane of Air. In a nutshell, its a dimension full of open sky, the most beautiful clouds you can imagine but better, and hundreds of floating islands scattered all over the place. Right now I'm working on the imagery for the location, and this is one of the two songs I'm listening to a lot for creative inspiration.
    And as a sidenote, I played this song with my school's band this past school year. I played the Alto Saxophone part.
