    My favorite part about this, besides the stunning music-making, is the joy on the other players' faces when their colleagues are creating something special. This is what music is all about!! Bravo to all!!

      If the conductor ain’t about to do the church lady dance himself during Shout...
      The band ain’t doing it right.

    I remember I was gonna play this at my last High school concert of the year back in early 2020 but then everything shut down and never got to play it. The last time we played this piece was one my favorite memories of band and it makes me a bit sad when I hear this because it makes me remember what could have been.

    11/10 for everything. They could've just sat there and played the music, and it still would've been good. They could stand when they did and it would've been better than just sitting, but just the energy of the performers and conductor added so much. fantastic performance

    I had a dream tonight with this song in it. Troy U played it last year and it absolutely became my favorite piece. The motions in the beginning honestly get me to tear up every single time. I only there for a year and had to leave because I had swapped majors, I honestly came to love everyone in the band as well. When I hear this it isn't just a good piece of music. It makes me think of home. Of the friends I made in the short time I was there, and the good times we had and memories we made. So yeah. This song really does mean something to me. It'll never get old either.
