That 7/8 6/8 3/4 rhythm is so catchy!!

And a bit of a nightmare to play

Horn solo go harder

[@leandermenezes7162]

What I like most about this piece is how it disobeys a lot of the Concert Band Norms. The Clarinet and Trombone unison harmony sounds good in the B section, and the Horn, Euphonium and Oboe countermelody later in the B section also sounds amazing. I only wish that the flute part wouldn't always be stuck with melody lines ;( Otherwise, quite an awesome piece to play!

[@mr.mashedpotatoes2597]

This piece is great both to listen to and play (I've got at least 5 hours of listening on yt and also my band), but as a player I wish the bass clarinet had more lines like 0:33-0:43 and the melody at 4:38-4:43 (although that 5 seconds of melody is more than we get in most pieces)

[@benjaminhuang2490]

This is very cool and changes time signature very often. It is clearly the best song.

[@kat4727]

this is such a wonderful piece

[@bradynickols9630]

I swear everybody gets a cool part except the trombones

[@cadenleonard8105]

Same. I also had the horn solo for this

[@isa-ot4lh]

I should talk to my director ab this just for the beautiful horn solo😂.

[@le_isha-micus6497]

The oboe solo though...

[@TheodoreBrown314]

I've got the oboe solo, and it's a shame that we didn't get to play this piece before the quarantine. I can't get the C# to F in the last part, but it's still a beautiful solo that I can't wait to play once band can continue
