I decided to listen to all the pieces I wasn't able to play because of covid and I am so sad now...
Played this for my final concert of my senior year, I miss that band
Hope you find a new bad fam again soon!
Me too!
I'm playing the snare part for our wind ensemble on this. This is like Ravel's Bolero on steroids.
Just repeat the measure 60x…or until existential crisis. That’s what I’m doing
@@AskChristopherP I managed to make it groovy with our drum set player and the concert was successful.
Now we're working on Lincolnshire Posy and Music For Prague 1968, and I got the timpani part for both.
Cheers!
So is it whtever the single stroked 3 note drag is
Our ensemble is getting the music soon and i’m trying to find out if we need our good snares on it or not because our next best can only do a drag
Also is mallets done with 4 because those same 2 snares r the only ones who can play with 4 mallets and one of them is the best set player in the district
And for set i’m the next best but i can only play swing 3/4, any 4/4, any 2/4 and any 6/8 or 12/8 i can’t play 3/4 tho and he’s playing insane fills every 5 seconds whilst staying in tempo
1 day later i can play it if that’s the part
Edit from 1 day after: snare part acquired it’s fun yet difficult when i’m shaken up from a crash cymbal falling off the strap after my last crash
I'm playing it now. I love it! Great rhythm and lines up so well with the other voices.
played 1st trumpet on this at a college concert back in February, kills the chops at the ending but literally the most badass piece ever
Drum set pulls it all together, insane writing by Thomas
playing this with my districts band currently, it absolutely kills me as a brass player but it's so fun
My HS Band director ordered this for us to follow Movement For Rosa! We're still waiting but I'm probably gonna be playing the Bass Trombone part for it!
Literally the flash theme.
I had the pleasure of playing this piece with the WIBC U Band this past November with Dr. Turner. Amazing! Thank you for introducing me to Omar Thomas.
Playing this for my All county band, can't wait to see how well we do.
Nice!
Was assigned drumset on this for my university symphonic band, I'm excited to play it!
Me to but playing snare. It’s 3 pages of the same measure. I wrote “Repeat 60x…….Or Until Existential Crisis.”
The Youth Symphonic Band (10-12th grade) at a university I go to for Junior Winds (8th-9th) played this. We were all stunned by how well they played this. It’s definitely an unforgettable experience of mine.
saw this live last night and am so upset i didn’t get a recording of it. glad this is here at least!
When you're ready to fight the final boss with fire gear
I’m playing marimba for this piece in my highschool symphonic band, and it’s so fun to play!
i was playing this piece with my 8th grade band and boy was it a treat to play! Tuba part was amazing!
wow yall must be good then bc im playing this at a college rn
So awesome!
OK, so I've listened to it ten times in a row...
Same
About to play this with my HS wind ensemble, I’m on a contra alto clarinet playing bari parts 😂
If anyone here is struggling with the clarinet runs.. if you chunk the notes into 3 note blocks theyre a super easy repetitive pattern
I played this at my all-state clinic (clarinet 1) recently and it was one of my favorite pieces! Excellent recording but I wish there was more picc (especially with the C at the first 7/8 measure)
Were you at the clinic this year?
@@scottmcleod8342 yes i was, were you?
@@jacksonv.1410 I was, I was in the 11/12 band
@@scottmcleod8342 your concert sounded so good i can’t wait to be in the 11/12 band next year
@@jacksonv.1410 Yeah it was probably the most enjoyable clinic I've had with the clinician and everything.
my school's wind ensemble is gonna play at the sping concert! we have a larger flute section😂I'm sure audiences that sits the closest is gonna have ear problems
This sounds exactly like the Spider-Man
i really want to play this but i dont think my bd will go for it

Anyone here from OAM?
I am, It kinda sucks that we had to drop it since we didn't have enough time to rehearse it.
@@grilledyogurt149 yeah i really liked this piece. Same thing with Illumination
@@bluetie1058 kinda funny seeing this reply after the trip. it was super fun but I'm extremely happy that I'm back. Which Bus were you on if you dont mind me asking? I was on the Yellow Bus
@@grilledyogurt149 LIME BUS BEST BUS
@@bluetie1058 as much as I disagree with that statement, we can both be glad that we weren't orange bus. they had the worst out of everyone.
Everything was going fine until that euphonium player on the right played that g (in the staff) in measure 86 with 3rd valve.
As a euphonium player: that hurts 😭 Above the staff that is PERFECT, but on the staff it's so out of tune 😭😭😭
That guy is me :D
Love the piece! Don't love the oboe part haha
The clarinet part isn't too fun either!
Lol, I was given this music last night to practice for a performance, saw my part (oboe), and audibly groaned...
still not better than arabesque
Arabesque is unbeatable
Looked at the baritone sax part. im ready to quit.
After all those 16th notes in the beginning, it’s not that bad honestly
Very talented group but they played the rhythm in the last measure wrong
