@@cptsmuge2283 It was a lot of fun to perform here on the channel. I'm glad you enjoyed! I certainly love how joyous this piece is! :)

I totally understand where you're coming from. I wrote this using MuseScore 3, and when I came up with the percussion ostinato starting after the beginning of the first repeat, the bass drum and snare drum weren't exactly with each other. I personally don't really see anything wrong with the cymbals, I think it's just the way the music lands that makes it sound a bit off. But thank you for listening! :)

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro ou're a creative person. You'll definitely go far! 👏

@@shelzzyr Thank you! I appreciate it! :)

@@WoFfan13 For some reason, this piece just made me so happy while I was conducting it. There's just something about it that screams joy and fun. I'm glad you enjoyed, and I hope you're doing well! :)

@@katiefeighan6725 Aww, thank you! I hope you're doing well! I had a lot of fun doing this. :) ❤️

@@tylercoughranmusic I agree, it's a great piece! :)

I actually thought about trying that piece, so I think I could give it a shot sometime. :)

This arrangement was a bunch of fun, but also tricky with all the runs in the woodwinds. I liked Sparks, but I still need to practice it. There's a sneaky 3/4 section in there that I have to memorize, but it's a fun piece. :)

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro Yeah, that part where it switches from 4/4 to 3/4 and back to 4/4 is pretty tricky. When I played the piece I had all rests during that part so having to count it out was even more annoying

I appreciate it, and I want you to know how great of a job you're doing as well. I hope you're doing alright yourself.

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro I’m ok I just need a break from my art for a bit sometimes it’s best to step on the break

I appreciate you checking it out, and I had a blast learning how to conduct it! You arranged it so beautifully! :)

I actually just listened to your piece, and I am perfectly okay with you using the title! I'd like to think of your piece as an image of a cardinal just enjoying its day. Great job! :)

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro thanks i enjoyed your piece too especially how it keeps you captivated all the way through. You should conduct Sparks by Brian Balmages it has some parts that would be pretty fun to conduct I think

@@cptsmuge2283 I appreciate it a ton, and I'll have to give the piece a listen and a practice. I'm always looking for new pieces to conduct. I really enjoyed writing "Flight of the Cardinal", but the key change at the end of the piece was actually very difficult to write.

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro no problem

Thank you, I am very happy you enjoyed! :)

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro yea it was great what instruments do you play?

@@cptsmuge2283 The first instrument I played was the recorder back in elementary school, and when I got into middle school, I started playing the clarinet. I chose that because it seemed the most natural for me. What about you?

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro i play percussion and the euphonium. I respect your recorder talent

Thank you so much, Tyler! I have been having a wonderful time practicing your music, and giving it life through conducting. That's what it's all about. I don't want you to stop composing, and hopefully more of your pieces will see a premiere like this one did. :)

I appreciate it a ton! :)

Thank you so much, I appreciate it! :)

Thank you for listening! Personally, I think it already is big, since it gets remastered a lot. 😁

Yes, that's right. It's been a wonderful adventure.

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro A Wonderful World

You're very welcome! It was a ton of fun to learn and perform! I don't want you to stop composing, because you're really good at it! :) 🎶

Thanks! That’s really nice to hear! 😊

Thank you so much! And thanks again for letting me conduct it! :)

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro If there's a piece that you're looking to conduct that doesn't have a recording you can use or no recording at all, I'd be happy to create a sibelius playback for it (granted I either have the score or can get ahold of it).

@@5mirablue I greatly appreciate it! That's really good to know. I have already conducted all of the pieces I planned at the moment, but there is one holiday piece I've been wanting to conduct, and it's one of the ones I've actually played myself: "Variations on Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!"

Thank you, I really appreciate it! It felt super meaningful to me when I made this video. :)

Thank you! I did for the most part leading up to the start of writing. Everything just came together naturally afterwards, although I had a brainstorming sheet to write down experimental rhythms to go into it. :)

You're very welcome! This was a tricky piece to learn, but I'm happy I could practice and perform it! :)

Believe it or not, 3 of my 6 suits came from Goodwill, including the one I'm wearing in the video. I got really lucky in finding those. The only one I had custom tailored to me was my blue suit, which was also my most expensive one at $533. I have a black suit and a red tuxedo as well.

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it! :)

Thank you! Ever since I started being a musician, I never wanted it to stop. It's made me who I am, and I have amazing people like you for support. I appreciate it, and thank you for watching and being here!

Thank you so much! I'm thankful to be able to do all of it. Thank you for watching! :)

It certainly was a ton of fun! 😁 I have another piece coming out tomorrow afternoon!

I hope you enjoyed! :)

Thank you so much! I'm very surprised by how well I did, since I had just gotten home from a walk when I conducted it! Inspiration may go a long way, but imagination can go even further. :)

That's so cool that you played this piece! It's absolutely a fantastic piece, for sure! I'd love to conduct your pieces! Also, I have two more videos coming out here in the next week which are pieces brand new to my conducting repertoire! I'm happy you enjoyed! :)

That's funny! Very clever! :)

I really appreciate it, and I agree. I picked this one for the sole reason of being happy and finding the joy in your heart. So this one means a lot to me, and I'm extremely grateful for our friendship. Also, I can't wait to see your new baton in a future video! Thank you for watching and listening. 👍♥️

It's possible, it's quite a famous piece! Someone recommended this one time, so I decided to conduct it. I have another piece coming up soon.

Thank you, I am doing well! I hope you are as well. I did conduct it before on my other channel, but I hadn't figured out how to conduct the rhythms corectly yet at that time. So, I recorded it again, and it was just there in my archives. So here it is! Also, I've seen your recent conducting videos, and I love the passion and enthusiasm! I have two videos so far scheduled for June, so look out for those! :)

Thank you so much, I got to see her yesterday. She's doing much better than she was, which is good. I hope your mother will get better soon. Let her know she's in my prayers. I hope she had a wonderful Mother's Day as well! ♥️

Thank you! The background color in the audio I used was yellow, and the wall in the room was red. I guess it makes sense, since we're currently in the warmer season! :)

Thank you so much! I didn't know you started writing yours so soon after mine! This one only took 4 days to write, and I finished it on the day that happens to be the day William Shakespeare himself passed away back in 1616, if I recall, which was April 23rd. Thank you for listening, and I plan to make a video soon explaining this piece! :)

Thank you! That's what I hope to do, but not at the moment. My composing and conducting are both mostly self-taught. Over time, I've watched and learned from many great people.

Thank you! I hope to make more joke videos soon! :)

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. That's so cool that he shares a birthday with one of the greatest conductors ever! Here's another fun fact: He shares the same birthday as the current President of Ireland, which is ironic, because we're of Irish descent on his side of the family. Thank you for watching. :)

Thank you, I hope to release more like it soon. ☺️👍

Thank you! I can't wait either, it's going to be a lot of fun!

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro I have so many new works in store to release and for us to conduct, it’s gonna be WONDERFUL!!!

@@WoFfan13 I'm so excited! I hope you had a great day today! :)

Thank you so much! It was such a blast being able to work on conducting all of them, let alone this 15-minute masterpiece of yours! In the video scheduled for release later today, I'll explain how this whole thing was thought of. I'm excited for your two conducting videos, it'll be a blast seeing you get back into it! Oh, and I'm working on my first playthrough of Super Mario Galaxy 2! 😁 Happy Birthday!

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro That’s exciting! Thank you for the birthday wish! Be on the lookout for them around this afternoon or so!

@@WoFfan13 I certainly will! 👍

Resplendent Glory is such a great one as well. 👍

It was all you! This work and A Childhood Remembered are possibly my two favorites from Galante! Glad you enjoyed! Tomorrow will have two videos, actually. One is the final piece of the concert special, and the other is the concluding remarks.

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro Can’t wait for them both! I see you record this videos i think the night before then release them the next morning?

@@WoFfan13 So how it went was: I recorded these all in one day. Specifically, these date originally back to Valentine's Day. But I recently had them scheduled for their assigned dates to be uploaded, because the way I wanted the final project to be didn't work how I wanted it. I hope that makes sense.

@@johnnytheyoungmaestro Oh! These have been in the Apanovitch Archives for a while then! Very smart!

@@WoFfan13 And the concert order was planned as well, I wrote down the 5 pieces in an order I deemed appropriate, and I uploaded them in that order. 😁
