We played this for state adjudication while in high school, i can still disbelief in the judges voice when our band director handed him his copy of the score. we aced it, it was magnificent
that was really well done. I always liked this piece, but I feel I understand it a bit better now that you have shown some of secrets behind the music!

I first played this in Summer Band Camp ( In the '60s schools were afraid to play this NEW music) Age range Junior/Senior HIgh School . Fantastic directors!! Thought 'Old boring stuff'... then started getting wild! ... then WTF "I'm all alone!!!!" No Warning! shock and awe --- Wonderful!!! (Primarily: Bass Clarinet, Secondary: Bassoon) We were able to play/learn different instruments. (We were short staffed) This duo was with me throughout college UofMN
I'm playing this in a community band for our fall concert next month. This is absolutely my favorite tune that we're playing, and it's really caught my attention in a unique way. I learned what an octatonic scale is a couple weeks ago and was confused how anyone could ever make it sound good. Chance proved me wrong. He proved everyone wrong. There's a lot to take away from this piece for my own writing!
My high school symphonic band is going to play this for our spring concert this year, listening to this piece initially sounds very chaotic, but this really helped me under stand what's going on
I stumbled upon this after reminiscing with a Jr. High School friend about band. I loved playing this; it seemed so exotic. After finding this recording and seeing your notes, I have to say, it's a pretty heady piece. We felt so adult playing it, I am reminded why!
I just discovered your channel and I was absolutely delighted to discover you've analyzed a bunch of my favorite pieces! Please keep the videos coming, I absolutely love them!

I played this piece on a euphonium when studying music at our military's school of music. The conductor was also in training, and chose this piece as his final. We were randomly selected to play it, just as part of our regular training. That conductor managed the rehearsals as if his entire life had lead to that moment in time, and the actual performance (which was not at all public) was nearly flawless, but for the staff member who hadn't attended the rehearsals screwing up the bass clarinet part at a critical point in the music. Our performance of this music lasts in my memory as one of the most amazing experiences in my life. All that you've displayed here, I had the honor of experiencing over the course of the rehearsals, fully grasping these nuances and running with it.
I played it in euphonium in college also. I love tricky parts. We did a wonderful job, except the clap board. It was a girl who was beautiful, so the director kept laughing it off. And true to form for a musician, she played it exactly as she rehearsed it. I call director’s fault on that!
This was awesome. Loved the Devo and Batman inserts lol. Any chance you could do one of these for Blue Lake Overture or Nelhybel Symphonic Movement? I loved this. Thanks again.
I had to sight read this for an audition sophomore year, and they gave me one of those horrible split part pages of music. During auditions, I get really nervous, and at this point my eyes were sweating themselves, and I ended up playing the second part for half the excerpt because I couldn't see the music.
TheMystic Pyro oh i bet! when I make these videos I’m always thinking about what looks super hard and what fingerings are tough af. This one has some difficult clarinet and bassoon stuff Fersure
I kinda forgot I commented this…update, now that I’m out of high school the new hardest piece I’ve learned is either “four Scottish dances” or “king fishers catch fire”
actually that's one of the few places where i can hear the maracas while there's full percussion going on. it's panned waaaaay over to the left, but it's still there
wow what a slapstick part
It's not just for 'Sleigh Ride' anymore! :)
I play that part lol
LMAO!!!!
the "visual" at m.m. 7O was PERFECT!!!!
HAHAHAHA!😁
Loved the Batman slap! Perfectly illustrated!
One of the first original works for band (1960) to have extremely prominent percussion parts. Great composition!

Lol at first I kept thinking JBC = Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger. I didn't realize until halfway through that you were referring to the composer.
FYI, this recording was done by the Keystone Wind Ensemble, conducted by Jack Stamp
Wow, this piece! As a clarinet player in high school, I truly discovered how to stagger breathe during that looooooooonnnnng chord! Well done, sir.
5:24 when the trumpets hit goddamn that's good
that was really well done. I always liked this piece, but I feel I understand it a bit better now that you have shown some of secrets behind the music!

One of my favorites from high school and college (clarinet)
You could say...

Incredible editing 🤩
私の高校時代の部活の顧問が、前任校で、全国大会に出場した曲です。おそらく、当時(45年前)、全国初登場の曲だったたと思います。
涼しい。 とても古い曲です

I would love to see Aurora Awakes by John Mackey, or Angel's in the Architecture by Frank Tichelli
I love these score studies! I think they're helping me to learn music theory and music writing a bit!
What I want to know is what temple blocks they were using, because they sound so cool
This was awesome. Loved the Devo and Batman inserts lol. Any chance you could do one of these for Blue Lake Overture or Nelhybel Symphonic Movement? I loved this. Thanks again.
This was pure gold
Just got a new slapstick for christmas, and I knew what piece I had to practice first!
What are the low clarinets in this piece?
2:39 and 7:06 are my favorite parts.
that was awesome, love this piece! Great analysis as well.

Awesome work.
This is the hardest piece of music for bassoon that I’ve played
Those sixteenth notes really caused me some pain
TheMystic Pyro oh i bet! when I make these videos I’m always thinking about what looks super hard and what fingerings are tough af. This one has some difficult clarinet and bassoon stuff Fersure
Aye, trills across the break as well (Bass Clarinet) I know your pain :) and pleasure.
I kinda forgot I commented this…update, now that I’m out of high school the new hardest piece I’ve learned is either “four Scottish dances” or “king fishers catch fire”
Magnificent
Lololololol Robin got slapped!
Sort of a concerto grosso in one movement for percussion.
hahaha, amazing
Thanks, dude!
Seemed like they left out the trombone parts
I was trying to play along with what I remember of the flute part from high school but the batman slap took me out
You tried nobly, in the end you fell.
Such a great recording but its missing the contrabass clarinet. Great analysis as usual
Playing this on tuba
👍バットマンにビンタ！
7:06 XD omg
i try to be funny
Fanfare and Allegro by Clifton Williams?
Gui Kirsch I’ll actually be releasing a video in a few days of Caccia and Chorale by Clifton Williams!
笑ってしまったwww
What key is this piece in? Ive looked at the score and it is all in C, even for the transposing instruments..
most of the time its in 2 flats (G minor or D Phrygian)
CrAcK tHaT wHiP
6:28 lacks maracas in the recording.
good ear
actually that's one of the few places where i can hear the maracas while there's full percussion going on. it's panned waaaaay over to the left, but it's still there
