- Because why shouldn't a brass quintet play Euro Disco?!
A high energy hit in 1978 by German pop/disco group, Boney M. The song tells the sensationalised tale of Grigori Rasputin, friend and advisor of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia and his family during the early 20th century. The song describes Rasputin as a playboy, mystical healer, and political manipulator.

Brass groups, I'd suggest to perform this one with commitment! High energy, excitement, dancing (definitely not sitting), and don't forget to encourage your audience to join you in a bit of shouting!
Instrumentation: 2 trumpets, flugelhorn, trombone and tuba. In the video I play the tuba part on my flugel down two octaves.

i never get tired of finding new arrangements of this song and this is one to add to the list
Criminally underrated
I had no idea that Rasputin was going to greet me this morning, but here we are. I think you have created a cult-classic. What great fun! Loved the chest-thumping, knee-slapping, foot-stomping, & hand-clapping at the beginning. I think the New Zealanders have had their influence. The arranging is top-notch, the playing and production values are always good, but the energy is what really sells this. Thank you for a great start to my day!
Haha! Thanks Bob, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for listening.

Another great arrangement. The song brings back memories.

Oh yeah, Baby! This is just fantastic - for the lack of a more suitable expression. The arrangement, the playing, the recording, the attire, the props, the energy... Congratulations Maeve! Top notch work!

It delights me every time I see the joy you feel and experience performing your beautiful, music. You are a great inspiration to anyone who watches and hears you play.
Great stuff! I love the rousing beginning: will get us all on our feet for the exercise regime most of us need so badly! And inspired touch to leave in: Ohhh, those Russians . . .
You're amazing and deserve to have all the subscribers!
I have no clue how many times I have watched this now, but this is my go to video on RUclips, I am trumpet player myself and I have been trying to learn it!
Majestic Marvel Mind-blowing 🎺👍

You are so good 💯😊
I absolutely LOVE this! Maeve,.. you are easily one of the most talented and creative souls I have ever had the honor to know,.. Keep them coming, girl! :)
So soothing to hear. After years it was since scl days I wonder abt this song where we usually play this our band on parades
Hearing this song through the musical instruments without singing or dancing is also very good
That was a good bit of fun :)
Great！
My god, this was amazing! I've been waiting for someone to make an instrumental cover of this song for such a long time, and you did a great job with. Nice arrangement, crisp sound, lively groove, just great all round!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
this deserves more views
Absolutely and subs
te amo
Great
Fantastic 👍👍😂
Yeeeha - hold onto your hats! (Or hold onto your vodka bottles?!?) SO good Maeve - well done! Took me back to uni parties jumping around in a circle singing this at the top of my lungs!
Haha 😂 I think I remember those parties...

Wowwwwwwwwww 👌👌👌🔥🔥
That's brilliant, thank you. ( As a trombonist I'm also glad that you've turned from the Dark Side and are using a proper slide trombone! )
Haha thanks John! Still learning but getting a little better each week 😊
Heyooo! just swinging by telling you that this is awesome! We are trying to get this working on our trombone trio!
I love you ❤️💕😘
Singing this famous song through the musical instruments only is very good to heat
In part very obviously an old Ottoman song known as 'Kâtibim' or 'Üsküdar'a gideriken' dating back to the 19th century, possibly earlier. It remains popular throughout the Balkans and further afield. Your grandmother used to sing it to us when we were kids. I have no idea where she learnt it, possibly through the 1953 recording of it as 'Uska dara', by Eartha Kitt. There's a nice instrumental performance of it here ruclips.net/video/r9No8kVSXqQ/видео.html The words in Turkish and English can be found there en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kâtibim with lots more information.
Wow! That's a cool link to learn about. Thanks Dad!
@@maevelander1 Ah, this is your father. That explains so much.

Back to my teenage years (which were quite a long time ago). Such a happy song, beautifully done. I feel sorry for the sad soul that felt they had to dislike this, perhaps if they listen again they will see it is brilliant
Haha thanks Sam!
👏👏👏👏👍
it's a pitty that i can't put a rank in it, if there as stars, it would by 10/10
My brain at 4am: Hey, wake up!
Me: Huh? What? What time is it?
My brain: Never mind that. Do you think there’s a brass version of Ra Ra Rasputin on the Google?
Me at 4am: I hate you…
Me at 4:01am (clicks on this video): God bless the internet!
Me at 4:11 am reply this.
You’ve got the groove! Excellent work. You just become my mentor! I know you are working hard with the trombone. Great job! 💪🎶🎺
Thanks Rune
❤❤😊😊Can you give me the distribution of this piece for the saxophone 😊😊😊😊
Is there a way I could buy the backing track
What software do you use to edit your videos? I've been trying to create multitracks on my own, but im not having much luck finding programs that can do that
Logic Pro X for the audio and Adobe Premiere for the video. I made a behind the scenes video a little while ago explaining the process which you might find helpful? ruclips.net/video/ea_giAq4fb4/видео.html
@@maevelander1 awesome, thank you!
Rumour has it the Boney M song is based from a Turkish folk song "Üsküdar'a Gider Iken". Good recording, though!
I didn't know that! TIL 😆
" Its melody has been compared to that of the traditional Turkish song "Kâtibim", but the band denied any similarity. " (wikipedia)
Anyway, great music, intriguing stories surrounding it.
Do you have sheet music?
In the description
@@maevelander1 thanks.
Ohhh...those russians....😂
You shouldve had a male friend say the spoken part
