Thank you for sharing Sousa music. My high school band director, Major James O'Neal, had been in Sousa's band. Many former Sousa band members led Florida bands and we exchanged visits. Fillmore, Major's good friend, visited often - he was active with University of Miami's band, where my husband played trombone. Oh, the stories of yesterday. We salute you!
+Garen Crownguard actually, relative to where the solo lays on the piccolo, it was in the same relative register on the Tuba. Not in terms of absolute octaves, but middle of piccolo vs. middle of Tuba. Obviously, he'd be a God if he could play it where written, but still very skilled.
This is a Concert Band folks and John Phillip used to to tour with a concert band. I'll bet he twisted all the favorites just like this and I'll bet he would be tickled with this collection. I know I was!
Outstanding! As a former trombone player (mid 60s through mid 70s including a stint in the AF Band), I really enjoy a nice brass arrangement. This paid off in spades :)
I went to school immediately after the second world war.We were very patriotic and had a Sousa March every a.m.I still enjoy them and am still patriotic.
That had to be wonderful to hear Souza every day. I started school in 1959. I still remember my music teacher. I used to perform in bands that did a lot of patriotic music. I loved it.
When I saw this and started listening to the music, I said, this is cool. I have this music on a audio cassette tape. The audio cassette tape is "Red, White and Brass". . Glad you posted a video to this music.. Thank you.
I've been to many concerts nd it seems that Sousaphones are not used in a concert band. It is funny to do a tribute to him without hearing a Sousaphone. I thank the poster for thsi video - very entertaining.
@@woodrowelmore2521 A sousaphone is only a tuba that has had it's tubing rerouted so that it can be worn and played while marching. Incidentally, military bands in the UK do not use sousaphones at all, preferring instead to march with a full size tuba. Silly I think because it is much more difficult and directs their sound to the side instead of to the front. But as you heard, a tuba is fine in a concert setting on stage.
This seems like a pretty marchable tempo I think any level of marching band can handle. Unless you're marching with bassoons or something crazy like that, you can march pretty much any tempo with corps style marching technique which is pretty common in the states at least.
If you want to hear a VERY good marching band, find Mt. Carmel High School band playing "Barnum and Bailey's Favorite". Their director sensibly slowed it down until it was a good march tempo...AND everybody was playing their parts. No, they're not The Canadian Brass but it's a fine example of how a march can be slowed down until it's managable by the people you have.
Your doing souza marches, WHY ARE THEY USING CONCERT SNARES!!! that bugs me to no end, when a group says they are going to marches and use concert snares. And don't they go above forte? I mean come on, you need ff just to make it sound right.
I have never understood why conductors and/or musical organizations play a march at a tempo no marching organization could possibly march to. It's akin to play a concerto or other concert piece to a march tempo. It is musically wrong as wrong can be. I guess it is supposed to present a situation where the musicians can show off a little. I can assure you the Canadian Brass has no need of that, as they set the standard for brass ensembles the world over.
The selections: Semper Fidelis, Manhattan Beach, Liberty Bell, Hands Across the Sea, US Field Artillery, Stars and Stripes Forever. Fine musicians.
the two greatest things:
1) john philip sousa
2) the canadian brass
how could this video be any better!?

Canadian Brass, as usual they are top notch...
That percussionist is the cymbal of musicianship.
The sound on my blue “ speaker “: !! Makes the best sound , just great for to hear and REALLY enjoy !!!!!! thanks!!!!
Chuck Daellenbach: One of the few players articulate enough in the upper register to play the Piccolo solo from Stars and Stripes Forever on Tuba.
+Sam Tuttle
it _was_ many octaves lower...
+Garen Crownguard ye still awesome tho

BRASS RULES!!!
Jason don’t question a man who’s profile pic has him holding a tuba
Brings back marching band and concert band memories.Mr.Erickson was a big fan.

Linda Watkin ❤️❤️❤️
Awesome tuba-piccolo solo!
3:14 and 5:24 Charles Schlueter and his Mini King Liberty! Rare trumpet. Unique trumpet player. Superb. And what a group!
A salute to Sousa and nary a sousaphone in the production!!

Good job Canadian Brass You are excelent!!!
I wish they had a list of all the songs they played. It's hard to keep up. LOL
The selections are: Semper Fidelis, Manhattan Beach, Liberty Bell, Hands Across the Street, US Field Artillery, Stars and Stripes Forever. Enjoy.
''BEAUTIFUL'' John Philip Sousa Marches!!
Good to see David Ohanian. I worked for his father in Westport back in the ‘60’s.
Espetacular, envolvente, inebriante.
Vibrante,maravilhosa apresentação,bravo!!
They're Forever!!!
Love the bow ties!
Ahhh good old Semper Fidelis.

Eugene from Walking Dead has a mullet.
Canadian Brass..the best.
Grande compositor e grande conjunto de sopros.

Laura Cramer, I'm Gene Watts' son, and I thank you for being a fan!
Expected a Sousaphone to be played

Awesome
Excelente Dobrado.
I agree 100%
bonita musica y emocionante su ejecucion.
Tolle Nummer!
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm a low brass player (euphonium), but on this piece, I think I'd rather watch the percussionists.
Now off to practice :D
This seems like a pretty marchable tempo I think any level of marching band can handle. Unless you're marching with bassoons or something crazy like that, you can march pretty much any tempo with corps style marching technique which is pretty common in the states at least.
I'm here
Fve dislikes? All woodwinds?
BerlinBo And one violin.
BerlinBo it's because of the Stars and Stripes piccolo solo
24 dislikes... hmmm
Ignore dislikes, nobody's perfect!
This woodwind loves them. And this is an amazing arrangement of Sousa!
Thats all right. I only want mean that music must be sounding today and will sound tomorrow and all and all and all... and up us
👏👏👏
👏👏👏👏👏
@raptor888x Them with the principal brass from the New York Philharmonic AND the Boston Symphony! :D
list of songs in order please
Monty Pythons FLYING CIRCUS!!
semper fi
3:36 Enter Monty Python Here.
Прекрасно
I'm a bit surprised by the C trumpets. Why not use Bb cornets?
1:00.
Welcome.
Piccolo trumpets are very under appreciated.
@raptor888x Leonard Bernstein conducting?
Was that Warren Deck on tuba?
I think so
Cut time. Cut time people.
RIP Fred Mills
Trombones and baritones are interchangeable, so it wouldn't surprise me if Gene played baritone for some pieces.
Gannon Craig, he used to! I'm his eldest son, Kevin, and his practicing at the house, and for some pieces, he played the euphonium!
@@Overtake1 take a look at the original Canadian Brass Canon from Pachelbel up on CB TH-cam and you can see him do so :-)
Sousa is from North America according to the Canadian spokesman. Of course he's right.
Who is the conductor??
改めて ブラスの良さが 感じる演奏です。 マーチに対する 敬意を 感じる 演奏・・・・ただ 日本人は 無理だろうな。
Gave it a thumbs up but it needs the Oboes, Clarinets, Flutes and Piccolos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The bass drummer at 6:20
Pirate!
What's the one at 5:22?
Hands Across the Sea
+Nocturnal Howl thx
What is this whole song?
It's a medley of different Sousa marches.
Beauty epitomized
They made a collection of best Sousa songs... AND DIDN'T INCLUDE BLACK HORSE TROOP?!
No Washington post?!?!
Georg Tintner
lol at worked oot at 0:12
Marcio domene
1:00
7:02
6:56
Left handed tuba player at 2:28
B. Nutter, I think he’s adjusting one of his tuning slides.
Song at 4:32 and 7:38?
What's song 10:10?
Lucas Oliveira That's still part of Stars and Stripes Forever.
But the result sounds good...i mean
@canadianbrass no no, that's what (in my opinion) could make it better....or at least more theatrical :P
You start with a computerized, servo driven left hand...
I don't think that's even necessary. I've even seen many good bands and corps with field shows that have players running and playing at the same.
You forgot Monty Python.
Javitomanzano, you mean the Liberty Bell March?
Ridiculous trumpets for these great and very beautiful themes
If you want to hear a VERY good marching band, find Mt. Carmel High School band playing "Barnum and Bailey's Favorite". Their director sensibly slowed it down until it was a good march tempo...AND everybody was playing their parts. No, they're not The Canadian Brass but it's a fine example of how a march can be slowed down until it's managable by the people you have.
Conductor: Prof. Flitwik
