Since I have not yet heard other performances of this, I cannot make comparisons. However, I have watched and listened to this performance at least 7 times now, and I think it is a wonderful combination of incredible virtuosity, musicianship, and a very powerful and image evoking composition by the composer. Hats off to this great brass band, its conductor, and Dr. Graham. For me at least, an inspired performance.
I have so much respect for peter graham but man he copy and pastes a lot of stuff from his other music. New York Movie at 9:52 and some pretty obvious Triumph of Time quotes at 11:26
11:26 that actually is just the same melody as the slow section of "Journey to the Centre of the Earth". Also 14:05 with the vibraphone, you hear that same melody in the beginning of "The 39th Parallel". I mean as a composer, I'm not ashamed to say that I copy paste stuff too. When you've developed a style its pretty hard to not have a habit of putting something from a previous composition on to a new piece.
A Revelation to John 12:1-17 12 Then a great sign was seen in heaven: A womanawas arrayed* with the sun, and the moon was beneath her feet, and on her head was a crown of 12 stars, 2 and she was pregnant. And she was crying out in her pains and in her agony to give birth. 3 Another sign was seen in heaven. Look! A great fiery-colored dragon,b with seven heads and ten horns and on its heads seven diadems;* 4 and its tail drags a third of the starsc of heaven, and it hurled them down to the earth.d And the dragon kept standing before the womane who was about to give birth, so that when she did give birth, it might devour her child. 5 And she gave birth to a son,f a male, who is to shepherd all the nations with an iron rod.g And her child was snatched* away to God and to his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God and where they would feed her for 1,260 days.h 7 And war broke out in heaven: Miʹcha·el*i and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels battled 8 but they did not prevail,* nor was a place found for them any longer in heaven. 9 So down the great dragonj was hurled, the original serpent,k the one called Devill and Satan,m who is misleading the entire inhabited earth;n he was hurled down to the earth,o and his angels were hurled down with him. 10 I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come to pass the salvationp and the power and the Kingdom of our Godq and the authority of his Christ, because the accuser of our brothers has been hurled down, who accuses them day and night before our God!r 11 And they conquered hims because of the blood of the Lambt and because of the word of their witnessing,u and they did not love their souls*v even in the face of death. 12 On this account be glad, you heavens and you who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea,w because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger, knowing that he has a short period of time.”x 13 Now when the dragon saw that it had been hurled down to the earth,y it persecuted the womanz who gave birth to the male child. 14 But the two wings of the great eaglea were given to the woman, so that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is to be fed for a time and times and half a time*b away from the face of the serpent.c 15 And the serpent spewed out water like a river from its mouth after the woman, to cause her to be drowned by the river. 16 But the earth came to the woman’s help, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river that the dragon spewed out from its mouth. 17 So the dragon became enraged at the woman and went off to wage war with the remaining ones of her offspring,*dwho observe the commandments of God and have the work of bearing witness concerning Jesus.e

Andy Waynick i agree with everything you wrote
Nicht gerade die beste Komposition von Graham!
I love that Vertommen's chewing gum while conducting
It's vulgar.
@@tsjukemar what are you his mom
I also thought it was distracting… and kind of unprofessional..
@@markbakema unprofessional? He was/ is one of the best belgian conductors at the moment
Graham and Vertommen look like twins
I adore how untimid the crowd is in cheering
Brilliant
A bit disappointed after "The Triumph of Time" / 2:22 Spectrum (Gilbert Vinter) 2.0

Die Musik ist der Wahnsinn, aber es irritiert mich sehr, das ein Dirigent nebenher Kaugummi kaut. Am besten die Musik hören und das Bild abdecken.
Close your eyes
Liked more the 1st version
Hair standing up on the back of my neck at the sound of the last few bars tremendous sound
More music, less show on this version ;)
A Revelation to John
12:1-17
12 Then a great sign was seen in heaven: A womanawas arrayed* with the sun, and the moon was beneath her feet, and on her head was a crown of 12 stars, 2 and she was pregnant. And she was crying out in her pains and in her agony to give birth.
3 Another sign was seen in heaven. Look! A great fiery-colored dragon,b with seven heads and ten horns and on its heads seven diadems;* 4 and its tail drags a third of the starsc of heaven, and it hurled them down to the earth.d And the dragon kept standing before the womane who was about to give birth, so that when she did give birth, it might devour her child.
5 And she gave birth to a son,f a male, who is to shepherd all the nations with an iron rod.g And her child was snatched* away to God and to his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God and where they would feed her for 1,260 days.h
7 And war broke out in heaven: Miʹcha·el*i and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels battled 8 but they did not prevail,* nor was a place found for them any longer in heaven. 9 So down the great dragonj was hurled, the original serpent,k the one called Devill and Satan,m who is misleading the entire inhabited earth;n he was hurled down to the earth,o and his angels were hurled down with him. 10 I heard a loud voice in heaven say:
“Now have come to pass the salvationp and the power and the Kingdom of our Godq and the authority of his Christ, because the accuser of our brothers has been hurled down, who accuses them day and night before our God!r 11 And they conquered hims because of the blood of the Lambt and because of the word of their witnessing,u and they did not love their souls*v even in the face of death. 12 On this account be glad, you heavens and you who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea,w because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger, knowing that he has a short period of time.”x
13 Now when the dragon saw that it had been hurled down to the earth,y it persecuted the womanz who gave birth to the male child. 14 But the two wings of the great eaglea were given to the woman, so that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is to be fed for a time and times and half a time*b away from the face of the serpent.c
15 And the serpent spewed out water like a river from its mouth after the woman, to cause her to be drowned by the river. 16 But the earth came to the woman’s help, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river that the dragon spewed out from its mouth. 17 So the dragon became enraged at the woman and went off to wage war with the remaining ones of her offspring,*dwho observe the commandments of God and have the work of bearing witness concerning Jesus.e
