Played this for my highschool band and one day we were doing sectionals, but the my section (the low brass) and a few saxophones came together and just ran the entire song. That was probably my favorite moment in my time in band, especially when we got to around 3:39. My only disappointment with this song was the fact my band didn’t have good enough French horns to shine during that part. Such a beautiful song, I wish I could play it again.
We are playing this for movement 2 of our band next year!
this is one of my favourite concert band pieces, i played the timpani part in highschool and it was great fun!

Our high school band is playing this right now! The saxes and low brass sound awesome in sectionals together. Im a clarinet player btw
Omg it's you, Shadow! I was a part of that section. This song had one of my favorite grooves of all time
Very nice!
