Fantastic playing all around of a complex piece. Love the direction. The preciseness and Fettig’s use of language is very inspiring. Reminds me of Robert Reynolds
Col. Fettig,
It must be wonderful to rehearse musicians at this level, knowing
that they will respond instantly and almost perfectly to whatever
tone colors you want to achieve.
Especially Hindemith who is so demanding!
Thank you,
Frederick Spector
Please keep these coming. The digital rehearsals are an awesome resource.
I really enjoy these digital rehearsals!! Col Fettig, you are the best!
FANTASTIC!!!!!!
I wish I could be in the room walking around soaking up all the great sounds.
Wow…just….wow. Who could possibly wish for anything more.
It would be great if you did movements 2 and 3 as well! Outstanding job from someone who played the E flat clarinet part back during her undergrad years.
An amazing work on so many levels. The contrapuntal puzzles are ingeniously worked out. The weblike woodwind textures (for example, at the beginning) are unique to the band literature. The three-part structure of the 2nd movement, with the third part being a combination of the first two. The use of saxophones as their own undisguised section. The virtuoso solo writing. Not only the greatest work ever written for band, but one of Hindemith’s own very best works, period.
Fantastic rehearsal! Attention to detail from every single member of the band....what a dream that most of us don't get to experience! Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful interpretation of this great piece of music!
Awesome Symphony.. the musicians and conductor are fantastic.. Marvelous piece of music.. a great pleasure to hear you all .. 👍❤️
Love it!!
Really cool und helpful for conductors!!
I’ve played the piece with 17 years old, so good and great memories with it. Great to hear it performed by the marvelous marines!!
Greetings from Germany
Very interesting rehearsal online, and interesting to see how USMB refers. My absolute favourite piece for symphonic band! I played it first time when I was 15.
Interesting conductor. He has good ideas on this marvellous piece of music:)
I’m seeing faces that tell me this was recorded some months ago. :-)😊
Playing flute 2 for this. Let me tell, I definitely didn't sound like this reading this piece for the first time!
Belo ensaio!
You guys ever consider having a bass sax as a regular member? Bass is the most coolest and underappreciated of the saxes.
Note….in the finale, the second trombone is much more important to the contrapuntal texture than you may think. Punch it and make it heard!!!
Who’s the piccolo player?!?!? I haven’t seen them before…. Where’s Courtney?
Can't wait to watch a digital rehearsal of Percy Grainger's "Molly on the Shore" just to see the woodwinds challenge their hands for 3 mins 😂😂😂
Your wait is over lol..here’s a recording of Molly on the Shore from 3 yrs ago. ruclips.net/video/P4q3oK8_BQ0/видео.htmlfeature=shared
U got any jazz moves like the Harry Begian wrist-roll geste towards the soloist?
This sort of thing has to be passed down and kept up.
Where abouts in America are this band?
Washington District of Columbia, our Capitol
Little early in the year for those sweaters? You guys have to be hot! Of course, the music is great as a.ways.
IMO, The Hindemith Symphony in Bb is the ONLY work for band that stands comparison within the great pantheon of music history…..well within the German symphonic tradition of Brahms.
If I were forced to choose five works for band to take to a desert island, this would be one of them. And…no one plays it better than this amazing group of musicians.
Not even Lincolnshire Posy?
@@coloraturaElise Lincolnshire Posy is a collection of miniatures….folk songs, brilliantly and colorfully orchestrated. It has little to no symphonic structure. This is where Hindemith’s masterpiece shines.
@@LyleFrancisDelp Ok, how about Grainger's The Warriors?
@@coloraturaElise The Warriors is a ballet...theater music...and it's pretty amazing. But it wasn't originally composed for band, was it? (However, I have transcribed it for band with all original percussion and pianos included.)
How about the Persichetti? I performed both the Hindemith and the Persichetti symphonies while I was an undergraduate and while nothing quite touches Hindemith's genius, the Persichetti is fun and challenging as well.
Maybe it is the sound engineering, but I find subtle things that are better every time in these rehearsals with Col. Fettig, compared to when they are under someone else's baton.
The masks keep the percussion from fraternizing in the back during rehearsals?
I was in a very good band, but this we never tried. Sorry about it.
