I have heard literally hundreds of performances of this piece of mine, but this is my favorite - so expressive and expertly performed. And your interpretation is spot on! Tempos and style are perfect! You nailed this! The piece sounds greater than I perceived it! Thank you so much!!!!! - James L. Hosay
Your words bring me great pleasure! I enjoyed conducting the piece, especially the clever construct of the fugue in its recap, leading to the grand ending of multiple counterpoints, is intellectually and emotionally satisfying. Thank you so much for your music!!! - Seow Yibin
Mr Hosay , this is one of the best compositions in my humble opinion . It'd be a great pleasure if you'd grant us the chance to listen to my junior college band's rendition of it titled 'SYF 2001- Victoria Junior college' . We played this 17 years ago and to this date this piece still evokes great musical euphoria and memories . Thank you !
I was in an Orchestra 8 years ago and Persis is always my favorite piece. Back then I was just like the guy playing the tambourine and suspended cymbal behind, and I get goosebumps every time the part at 6:53 begins. Many thanks for arousing lots of my great memories.
Here in Brazil, large brass bands performed this piece, the one that performed best was the Corporação Musical Lyra de Mauá, from the city of Mauá, in the state of São Paulo. And this performance has a lot in common with Lyra's performance, with a lot of strength, a lot of "grip", at the same time with incredible expressiveness. Of all the performances I've heard, from groups all over the world, yours is without a shadow of a doubt the best! Bravo! Bravo!
hi man! you played it yet? I have personally played this and performed this piece as well. it's a very hard piece, if your band cannot sound as perfect as this, I recommend you do not use this piece for a competition. it's either your play it and is good at it or don't play it at all. if you haven't then good lucky and practice hard!! all the running notes are hard and you have to express your sound with your emotions. :)
damn man would love to hear a recording. my band lowkey sucked at this 😔 no grace notes, no blending, out of tune, no emotions in their instruments. we played this for syf (Singapore youth festival) and damn I understand now why e couldn't get a distinction. 😂
I played timpani in this in my junior year of high school. Best experience of my life, until I got to play Xerxes on timpani last year, but Persis will still hold a very tender place in my heart!

Thank you for your masterpiece!!!
The bass trombonist in this video has absolutely incredible tone! If you ever read this, from a fellow bass trombonist - you rock!
The oboe solo made me cry... and need I say more about the FRENCH HORNS!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Few wind band conductors conduct without score, Mr Seow Yi Bin is one of a kind.
The song is very beautiful and impressive. I like this band and conductor who really cares about every instrument's emotion.
Love that bass trombone !!!!
I played this in high school. (Oboe) this was soooooooo good! I still love this song.

Healer CVS I haven’t played the song yet. It’s not my band I’m in it. We as a group are pretty damn good at this song.

When the one of the flute players comes to your school performs say their youtube channel and end up finding your school conductor..
very very good 👏

오 나도 이곡 연습중이에염 (트럼본) 아직은 좀 어려서 연습하면 언젠간 잘 되겠죠???
네오 지금은 잘 하실지 모르겠네요ㅋㅋ 근데 이 곡은 클라리넷하고 실로폰 말고는 막 엄청 어려운 곡은 아니라서 연습하시면 잘 되실 거예요!! 파이팅
클라리넷 1ㅅ
현우 S. 클라리넷 고생 좀 하셨겠어요ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 손가락 잘 안돌아가는데.. 저는 스네어여서 뭉치는 것만 빼면 괜찮았는데 제 친구는 실로폰 하다가 진짜 미치는 줄 알았다죠 실로폰이 특히 제일 어려워서ㅓ..
저도 트럼본인데 다른파트에 비해선 거의 날먹수준이더라고요ㅋㅋ
Why are there three guys in the trumpet section not doing anything?
tacet
They rotate I think so that they don't get tired
Thought of saying the percussion gal was cute but then came the Oboe solo guy
I see my principal playing
What orchestra is this?
bravo xyl
