Played this piece in high school(more than once), and it's by far one of my all time favorite pieces I ever played. I played 1st clarinet, and it's such a fun part.
Sick, I just site read this yesterday and it is an amazing piece, I also played The Witch and the Saint last year. I play bass trombone and the parts are so much fun to play.
I played this once in middle school and it immediately became my all time favorite. I played 2nd horn, basically first because I played all first parts except the solo.
Played this for honor band. At the ending, i could visibly see all the other school band members who were forced to play only classic marching music watch in awe.
Such a rewarding piece when it's all put together. Played it my Freshman year of high school, and after making GMEA my Senior year and playing hundreds of pieces throughout High School Band.... This is still my all-time favorite arrangement.
Hi Emma! I don't know what your college schedule would entail, but we just played this as our extravaganza piece and we're playing it again next Tuesday. You should totally come to the concert!
My band just got this for our spring concert, and as someone who's played tuba for 7 years, this is a he'll of a song to get introduced to tuba by, it's brutal
@@antcorn738 haha I'm responding from my other account. I loved it so much. I actually picked my trumpet back up for the first time since 2016. It's getting repaired and cleaned. I joined a community band and I may become one of their other tuba players as well after I get back into it
I love this piece. For my final senior assessment piece in Music, I chose to conduct my school's symphonic band in a performance of this. It was incredibly rewarding, and I'll never forget just how fun it was to conduct this piece, and how beautiful it sounded. 100% I recommend playing this piece in your school's band at least once.
I loved playing Steven Reineke back in high school. There's so much good parts and every section gets to shine in his piece. We won a competition while playing pilatus mountain of dragons and I still can remember my director shaking at the end because we played it so well even with the stress. So many great memories
I've probably played this 2 or 3 times over my high school year. In competition too. It was so much fun, I go back every few years and just listen to it. I miss band😢😂
Also playing for winter concert this week, on bass trombone. Probably one of the best pieces our band has done (it’s only been around for 3 years as of right now)
@@xlordzz8740 it went very well! Piece came together nicely and ended the concert on a great note! Take it all in when you play, and enjoy it most of all!
I am playing this song as the closer of my collage concert and my band directors last concert piece. Before graduation and moving to elementary music next year.
I played this back in seventh grade at a competition. We traveled for it and everything, then landed a superior with distinction. It is still one of the greatest experiences of my musical career, such a fun piece. I was lucky enough to play 1st clarinet
@@TheTwitchyGreenI didnt play this last year but was playing music this level (at DBC). First band directors are a bit insane with the music but skipping lunch to practise actually helps a lot
Played this for competition and nyssma majors and I could just see the absolute amazement on how this piece sounded. Every detail of this peace was written so perfectly. The horn gliss at the end never fails to give me chills. The trumpet solo was perfectly written. They way everything comes together in the piece never fails to amaze me
I played this a year ago with my highschool band for our spring concert, and it's stuck with me since. If I recall correctly, low brass represents Loki, Norse god of mischief, and at the time I admired the whole god of mischief thing, and was glad to play their role in the piece. Well, a year later, and I change my name because I really disliked it. And my nickname, given to me by a friend of mine, is Loki. I suppose it all came full circle. This piece means so much to me, for more than just this, but especially this.
I loved playing this song in high school especially since our director had us come up with a story to go with the music so we could play the song while imagining what was happening in the story to help us "get into the feelings of the song"
Played this song in 2 concerts last year and i need to play ut again. I literally learned and switched to bass clarinet over the summer deom flute cuz the bass clarinet part was so cool. Especially at 6:10. Playing first flute with my best friend was also amazing and wish I could do it again too
I played this back in 2002 when I was in HS, and it inspired me to switch from flute to Oboe in my hs symphonic band... firing me off on a long career in music performance and songwriting. Can't understate this piece's importance in my life, and it still holds up today!
I am currently using the ballad section of this song as the ballad of my Drum Corps Show. This ballad fills you with a sense of inner peace right after a hectic and stress inducing situation. And that perfectly fits what I intended. W music 3:45 - 5:23
Played this last year an was told that my high school had the best low brass in the state. We were compare to college level or even professional bands by other professors.

CLARINET BROOOS

Just got this song for high school band as the only piccolo and let's just say it's a banger to listen to during all of my resting
I love it as a fellow piccolo, but switching between flute and picc kills me 😭
High school? I’m doing this in 7th grade!
@@cjodol3271 thats great. Lets stay humble now.
@@cjodol3271 7th?! IM DOING IT IN 6TH!
lmao my friend plays picc and she always looks at me while I'm playing and she's resting with a sad look on her face and I start laughing
I played this piece on Alto Sax for our spring concert. Nearly cried playing... In my head of course 😊
Loved playing the flute for this. Nostalgic of those high school band days lol
I know right! The flute is such a fun part.
I played first flute with my best friend and wish I could do it again
Such a rewarding piece when it's all put together. Played it my Freshman year of high school, and after making GMEA my Senior year and playing hundreds of pieces throughout High School Band.... This is still my all-time favorite arrangement.
Played this for my spring concert last year. Best piece I've ever played. Everyone in my class wants to do it again this year
Agreed
Dude, Im playing this At my Spring Concert this year!!!
@@spyder2290same
My class did play it again the same year and I hope that I can somehow convince our director to play it again
Brings back memories of tackling all of the percussion parts with just 4 percussionists, such a chaotic fun experience
i had to play all of the mallet percussion😍there were only 4 people in our high school percussion class
my band had 2 percussionists 😭
Just 4? 😅 we had ONE. 2 on a good year for timpani lol
I played this in Eight grade. Now I'm a college sophomore and I still get chills. I played the xylo in this song.
Doesn't xylo only have like 8 bars the entire song
@@cypherpvz dont remember + dont care song is still a banger
@@cypherpvzyeah it does had to play it last year. loved this song but hated that i played literally ONCE
Playing this for my spring concert on Euphonium and I’m so excited !!
Played this my senior year and it is easily one of the greatest pieces I've read
I played this piece in my junior year of high school and even as seniors our whole band sings PRAISES to this piece
I will never forget playing this in high school, as a trumpet and having so much fun with those solos💛
Hi Emma!

@@Woofrie if I can, I will!
When I graduated in 2017, our band chose this as our senior song. I was a tuba that year but previous years I was trumpet. Still love it

1:58 is my favorite part of this song dude
Agreed.
Played this for 8th grade, best ever ngl
I'm in 9th grade band currently, play 2nd alto sax, and this is my favorite song I have ever played in school. I love how the melodies keep returning.
I'm the trombone soloist at my school for this song. I'm really excited!
I played this at a university's summer band camp one time on the tuba and it was by far the Greatest experience I've ever had
I'm playing this for my winter concert this year.
Edit: We moved it to our Spring Concert. Also I play alto sax
Good luck. I played xylophone, bells, and chimes for this piece last year. It was so much fun

Played it my senior year with euphonium, all low brass almost cried when we played this for our last concert
Good piece, has a lot of Planets Suite-sounding parts in it.

I am in 7th grade, and I am currently playing Eiger by James Swearington. Good luck with this piece lol
@@Hywars Why couldn’t I get trumpet 1 in 7th grade🥲
Ah I just got flashbacks to high school band! One of my fav pieces. 1st chair alto sax was such a fun part to play ❤
I played this 16 years ago. It was one of the most memorable pieces.
Just got this piece the other day I play first clarinet and I already love this piece
Got this piece for spring concert this year, senior.
I'm the only French Horn, wish me luck!
