I'm a highschool student and I play alto saxophone in our band. This has been one of my favorite pieces forever, Sean O' Loughlin is my favorite composer. I've always loved this song. We're finally doing it in band this year and I'm so excited!
ahhh flutes and clarinets at 69 after the eigth note is beautiful and first sax(which I play) at 71 is beautiful and the amazing contrast at 135 with Saxes flutes and clarinets, then trumpets, low brass, and French horn. All of those parts make this the amazing piece it is!
this is our marching music, this tempo, and i am in the 8th grade, and i am getting the hang of it. just dont know how in the world i will memorize it. ours sounds almost exactly the same. but our band directors changed it a little bit.
This is just an epic piece in general and so much fun to play. We are doing it at Mississippi State University Honor Band this year in the lower band. Its a great piece and I would recommend it to anyone :)
Oh my god, I played the flute part with the other flutes for this song in 7th grade and absolutely loved it. ❤ I love you for putting this on RUclips. :)
I absolutely love watching middle school kids who don't know how to shut off their computers fight over shit that's not relevant. Please continue, I'll go get some snacks
Oh...i see now. LOL sooorry. I love horses so i just read the horse part and not the rest. :D Oh pitt...i was in it for marching band. Its kinda fun! Thats good practiceing. I rly dnt have time too do that so...I onli practice at school.
3:30-4:00, and roughly 4:35... YAY! French Horn solo! *first time playing it all the way through, gets to those parts (7th grade symphonic band)* "wait-- I didn't know that was a solo!" Nope... It isn't... My section mates didn't know it... so it was an unintentional solo... I'm only second chair, though... GREAT SONG!
I'm a girl, 17 and nope. How about you? Oh thats cool, I learned at school from the start and i jus practice at home wen i need to, Its rare for me to take my oboe home. LOl
Well, I was nowhere near as good at that part as I am now, but it was almost a guessing game for the longest time for when you were supposed to hit those staccatos. TA.....TA........TATA......TA.......TATA...TA......TATA..TA..TA
I love how all the adult band geeks all come back to this song for the best nostalgia 😭❤️

Ahh the memories. I loved this piece so much my freshman year of band. What I wouldn't give to go back to high school and play more.
I'm a freshman this year and played alto sax for this song. Absolutely to hear this song from within. Reliving for you!!
Absolutely *amazing*

Me too, but I was the only one who could play full tempo and that’s what really made me sad

i played this song and im in the 8th grade. we kept it at the original tempo
Oh...i see now. LOL sooorry. I love horses so i just read the horse part and not the rest. :D Oh pitt...i was in it for marching band. Its kinda fun! Thats good practiceing. I rly dnt have time too do that so...I onli practice at school.
i cant wait until my middle school band plays this
the bit after the 25th measure I believe is one of the easier parts of this song. Overall it is very challenging! Love it anyway!
@poppycracker33 actually were not playing it anymore, it got replaced by arabian dances
I’m playing this song in band and it’s so hard 😭
I was ready to die when I got the only 1st alto saxophone part because are band is pretty small and I was the only one that was actually trying lol.
We played this in 8th grade and I'm going to try and get our band director to let us play it
This song is only a level 3 and it’s hard especially for trumpets like me that have to deal with 00:15
Bass clarinet FTW!
Yeah my boy
My midde school band is playing this peice, im playing 1st clarinet its not as hard once you get the feel for it.

This sounds so similar to his piece called Ricochet.
Yikes, are the alto saxophones using vibrato?!?
Why the comments so damn old or from older people bro 😭
