Rossano Galante. This last weekend, a few members of my band and I got to see him at a festival, and he conducted this very piece for us. Galante is young, but extremely talented, and you can tell that he puts every piece of heart and soul he has into every piece he writes. Thank you, Galante.
my high school band director passed away about 2 months ago, and she always loved playing galante's pieces, and finally listening to these again really hit me. this was one of the last galante songs i got to play wit her, and it's so beautiful.
I’ve been playing in a concert band with other secondary school pupils for the last five years, and we played this in the National Concert Band Festival in Manchester a few months ago. Yesterday as of writing this I just came back from a tour we went on to Spain for a week (plus a day in France at the end) and it was incredible, but being in Year 13 that was the final thing I did with this group, so coming back to hear this piece again really sent me. It represents all my memories and feelings about this group and leaving it behind so perfectly, and despite not being an overly complicated or difficult piece it is one of those pieces that proves you don’t need those properties to be moving and memorable. I’m going on to study Music at university in September, and my life and the impact music now has on it wouldn’t have been the same without this group, so from the bottom of my heart I thank them all.
Whenever I play this piece at flute it makes me so happy! This was the first song I played at orchestra and it’s generally a beautiful piece, we usually have to swap out the oboe solo for a flute solo and I’ve played the solo twice in concerts! I do absolutely love this piece though! The whole concept beautifully goes together
This is probably his “easiest” song. But I bet it is difficult when you start playing with an ensemble. Especially if you are in an ensemble you aren’t familiar with.
@@austindavis5319 i am playing it at a music festival in two days time. it is hard, especially for a string bassist (me) to play but not overshadow the ensemble
you probably dont care but does anyone know a trick to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow forgot the password. I love any tips you can offer me
@Markus Cason Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Rossano Galante borrows a lot of his sounds from original scores (not to diminish his accomplishments; this is a great piece), so that is why you've probably heard some parts of it before. :D
Yeah, that had me scratching my head. And what are you supposed to do if you have just one tuba and no string bass? I guess some parts would have to be omitted and/or carried over to that one tubist.
Definitely has that kind of richness to it. He has created a real orchestral sound without having strings. Yes, I know there is a string bass part, but that is more common in bands and wind ensembles than you may think.
Beautiful piece of music that I really like, but why is it scored in such an annoying way with no key signatures? That seems really strange, especially for a piece that is clearly for more capable players who don't need every accidental written in.
Sometimes it is easier for composers to not have a key signature to worry about. Look at composers like John Mackey or Dana Wilson and you will see what I mean.

YOOOOOO!!! Same! I was 1st Trumpet. Matthew V.
@@rileymooneymusic agreed!!
lmao 2 years ago he was 53. I agree he's talented but not so much with the young part.
@@wouterberings6535 haha.
@@wouterberings6535 I agree.

"Yo whisper"

so touching!! certainly should be a score to a Hollywood movie (:
reminder this is composed by a dude who worked on Avengers Age of Ultron, Logan, amongst others. (like Sausage Party-)
galante's great, man.
The solo of the flute is amazing!

My district band played this and it was hard at first

MTSBOA mid-state used this for their silver band this weekend. I made 5th chair! woot!
5th chair in what?
@@jackdonohue7893 MTSBOA mid-state Silver band 9/10th grade.
I played this my last year of middle school. This is a trip down memory lane.
I SWEAR THIS SOUNDS LIKE A DISNEY PIECE OR SOMETHING FROM DISNEY CUZ I SWEAR I HEARD THIS BEFORE LIKE DAMN.
Rossano Galante borrows a lot of his sounds from original scores (not to diminish his accomplishments; this is a great piece), so that is why you've probably heard some parts of it before. :D
i hear a lot of little excerpts from “i see the light” from tangled
I hear more Joe Hisaishi (Studio Ghibli)
It doessss
you guys this video was posted on my birthday, and we're playing it this year. what a coincidence! great song btw
I remember playing this at my high school concert band during my junior year and my marching band show during my senior year
There really is a lot more to music than the notes, rhythm, dynamics and articulation.
Beautiful...
Played this senior year of high school... we had 9 flutes...
Lili Fleming my 8th grade band is learning this 😂
My 6th 7th and 8th grade band are learning this
Ouch, 9 flutes is painful, we’re lucky if two flutes turn up, it’s usually me who just turns up out of the 6 flautists who play in our orchestra haha
This sounds so pretty!
Beautiful piece! Love it! Thanks.
Love this! So beautiful! Have been listening to it many times.
The beggining is like after life and crosslands. Galante certainly has a clear style
Just because there is no key signature does not mean that it's C Major or a minor. Look for the leading tone.
Joseph Carl Breil Galante does this a lot.
@@andrewnicholas9672I know it’s been 5 years but can you elaborate?
Absolutly stunning piece and performance!! Just amazing
This sounds more like a Grade 3.5 than a 3
I played this in my 8th grade band. I wish I never quit band.
Rossano Galante for Jurassic Park after John Williams.
Yup
Why does this give me Jurassic Park vibes 😂
used this in our marching band show :) beautiful.
bailey jacobsen how do you use this in a marching show
@@karvz1 you arrange it
wonderful,my favourite.
What key is it in at the start?
beautiful
sir may i borrow?
Hey I played that
Ok I was looking for songs that would be really cool for concert band and I found this but this is my marching band song 😂😂😱😱🤔🤔
How do you march to this?
Trumpet Girl wut
@@7kaemon why wouldn't you be able to march to it?
Wait, there are 2 Tuba parts???
Michael Fox Haha, don't know why
Yeah, that had me scratching my head. And what are you supposed to do if you have just one tuba and no string bass? I guess some parts would have to be omitted and/or carried over to that one tubist.
sounds almost like something from Joe Hisaishi.
Ikr?
Play this in 1.25
Getting a Star Wars vibe
Getting a Legends of the Fall vibe
Definitely has that kind of richness to it. He has created a real orchestral sound without having strings. Yes, I know there is a string bass part, but that is more common in bands and wind ensembles than you may think.
Sound like a Disney music 😂
Diamonds Lps why is it funny?

I think it has more to with if a piece changes key and modulates a lot it is just easier for everyone instead of changing keys very often
Zachary McKinnon That is true as well. But when there are a lot of accidentals in the piece, then you should use the open key signature.
I think it's pretty cool without a key signature. I don't see very many accidentals.
That is just what Rossano Galante does, my band plays all kinds of his music and it's something he is really known for I believe.
