Asphalt Cocktail by John Mackey. Norwegian Wind Band Championships 2016. Performed by Musikkforeningen Nidarholm. Conductor: Trond J Madsen Sheet Music: www.ostimusic.com/Asphalt.php
Oh man, this took me back Played this in my high school honor band senior year. 1st trumpet part. That last section is nearly impossible to play but it is fun! And this was a great performance! Put a smile on my face!!
@3:30 you can see the trash can in the back of the frame, however during the actual trash can part the player is to the left of the camera as it is facing the tom tom girl
@Simon Walrod I can guarantee you that there was a trash can involved :) You can see it clearly in the picture at 4:32. And yes, they smacked it big time :)
That girl playing the toms is jammin'
shoot i would be too, i can barely stay in my chair rn
i agree sooooooooooooooooooooo mutch
its a shame everyone else in the band is like a statue throughout all of this, at 5:23 especially
Definitely the best recording!!
best apshalt cocktail ever!!!!! beats all of the others
The original recording with the MSU band is the best, but these guys are no slouch!
5:13-5:36 The greatest moment in the history of the percussion section.
Contrabass Clarinet + Contrabassoon = Epic low Reed sound.
Jake Giganti Now THATS a true low reed section 👍
brenden wol Indeed.
Do NOT omit the Bass Sax as well!!! Now THAT is a low reed section!!!
Oh man, this took me back

Their attitude gives me so much chills!! (especially the clarinets hehe)
The guy in the baseball cap plays a mean bass trombone!
Indeed he did, at that point he was our oldest member and one of the cornerstones in the band. Sadly he died a few months later to cancer.
I thank the bluecoats for getting me here.
What a great piece of music and what a great band.
3:58 this moment reminded me at lot of Foundry by him.
5:23 im glad at least percussion and the director looked like they were having fun
You have to admit, 3:58 becomes the best part
We're going to play this on the same stage April 1th :) In the same division as them !!!!
Greåker Musikkorps
5:12 the horns were absolutely screaming 😳
WHY IS NO ONE PLAYING THE TRASH CAN PART
5:27 tom lady is clearly smacking the ever-living daylight out of it.
4:28 too
