あんだけ壮大な第二楽章吹いておいて第三楽章吹ける体力残ってるのやばいな..........
I don’t think any brass band recording comes close to this. This is still the benchmark to beat… outstanding!
何度聴いてもやはり名演すぎる。金管バンドのサウンドにハマるきっかけを与えてくれた最高の演奏です。。
1番完璧に近い演奏って感じ
なんか次元が違う
When every player in the band reaches level 100........
高1のとき吹奏楽で吹いたことあって８年越しで聴きにきたけども、音圧に、絶妙な響きに、涙が止まりませんでした
音楽聴いて、しかも生演奏でなくて感動で涙するなんて初めて…最高です！！！
The decision to put an ad right in between II. and III. is criminal and should not go unpunished
This performance is something else... Up there with the absolute best performances of all time in brass band history.
Goodness me, just seen this on TH-cam after all these years. What a fabulous day it was for the band, they were on top form throughout that decade. So privileged and truly proud to have been part of it all. Wonderful memories indeed and an real honour to be part of that wonderful team of players. Happy days 😊
Didn't you play the trombone solo on this recording? God damn, some inspirational stuff, sir. Fantastic interpretation from you and the band.
That's so very kind of you, thank you. T'was a good day for all :-)
Great reprise of your solo yesterday, Nick!
Thanks Andrew, I'd forgotten what a great piece it is. Take care.
What a day, Nick Hudson!
最高の「ドラゴンの年」
キレありすぎてやばい！
圧巻の演奏
間違いなく最高の鼻血ドラゴン
こんな風にユーフォ吹きたい…
このトロンボーンソロほど泣けるものはありません
Btw after 15 years of playing for maestro Howard Snell, for me simply the finest musician I have ever had the privilege to work with, this was the only time I saw a tear in his eye in a performance.
I can tell you that many of us had a tear in our eyes too, listening to your solo in Mvt II. I and my colleagues in the Saskatoon Brass Band (Canada) would get together with a bottle of Lagavulin (back when we could afford it) or Highland Park, and put this on in a darkened room with a good stereo. We would be overwhelmed by the performance; meanwhile our spouses would sit in another room and snicker at our quasi-religious devotion to this music. We aptly named these gatherings Brass Band Geek parties. Time for another, methinks. Thank you for this and your other wonderful contributions to music.
Howard is a true legend. This is just awesome. And still holds up to today`s best performances.
Just simply superb!
No wonder Mr Snell had a tear in his eye. That middle movement and the blazing third movement would put a tear in anyone's eye.
Britannia was superb at rhat moment with a giant maestro and wonderfull players❤
Good gracious! This trombone soloist is the freaking golden child!
もはや人間業とは思えない！！ Finaleはもちろんだけど、Interludeの素晴らしさ！！ player全員に魂が乗り移った、まさに奇跡の記録！ 本当の宝物の１つです！
2楽章に圧倒されました…。ブラスの割れるギリギリの音圧が最高に心地いいです。吹奏楽でもこのぐらいの音圧の音源がぜひ欲しい…
同感です
伝説の名演！鳥肌半端ない！
That push up to 8:40 is just simply outstanding. GOOSEBUMPS
8:10 that descending line with the euphs and horns topped by the soprano is just magical.
That horn melody line from 7:51 to 8:40 is freaking breathtaking. Drama!
As for the composition Movement II is genius.
I was playing with a band in the Euro's that year and I remember sitting in the audience listening to this thinking 'I've never heard anything like this'. The last movement separates the boys from the men and I've never heard it played as well since.
この演奏が入ったCD欲しい
I was lucky enough to be playing at the Europeans that year with the band that came 6th and I remember listening to this performance live. It sent shivers down my spine then and still does now, all this time later. Superb playing

Yes, one of the great all time brass band performances. Simply incredible!!!
I assure you, it's still special - that performance would probably still win 9/10 contests.
The final section is rock hard, to get that kind of clarity and at that speed is absolutely sensational. The middle section is far more difficult than this makes it sound, especially with the warmth and control that this displays (a warmth that is sadly lacking from certain bands right now, especially right at the very top...)
Tylinar Jacobson I'm not sure I agree - there are lots of clean performances of technically harder pieces, but the trend towards low-risk approaches with the aim on not losing points means the truly hair raising, emotionally moving musical performances seem to be lacking.
Cory in particular I find rather sterile and whilst sensationally good technically, the sound and expression just doesn't satisfy me, personally.
YMMV
Deiniol Williams I was there with Northop for the concert and saw this performance live, still get goosebumps 26 years later

This song > life.
Which is the best passage in all of the brass band repertoire? 6:20 - 8:40 is definitely a contender!
壮大な嵐のようなInterlude
素晴らしすぎる
What a brilliant performance.The 2nd movement interlude sent chivers down my spine.Best ever
Interlude is Sparkes second prettiest melody...after the second movement of his Euphonium Concerto
Philip Sparke is the modern day Elgar!
The interlude in this piece is something that Elgar couldn't have written any better!
The playing by Foden's band in this performance is also something that no other Band in the World could ever improve on!
You need to hear Desford's Performance...their middle movement....the dynamics.....that's the best one in the world!!!
7.20 mins.... Some of the best tone progression/melody progression I have ever heard in a brass band piece. First time I heard this piece it blew my favourite test pieces out of the water, and immediately became my favourite. Well played by all in the band. So amazing. So brilliant. Well done Philip Sparke. I hope that one day my composition skills can get as good as you.
6:19 The best phrase in music I've ever heard
#SEMPER FIDELIS #QUA PATET ORBIS #JE MAINTAN DRAI ! ♫♪ great ♫♪♫♪♫♪☺ BRAVISSIMO @/bisbis 🎶🎵🎼 great music! a well tuned ensemble that sounds like an organ ! Fabulous banding! Compliments! #SEMPER FI #QPO #JMD🎵🎼🎼🎶🎵🥁🎺👌👌🙏🎺
I had the pleasure of being in the audience that day. Sat though every performance and this own choice was a knockout (although I did hear rumblings that the 2nd movement was a bit kitchy).I still think it is top class...and the last movement just blows me away, even when I played it! -Philip Sparke knows how to write fantastic brass band music, always exciting, technically difficult at whatever level and generally good on the ear.
Often find Sparke's compositions a bit formulaic and in some cases a little lacking in the substance department (they just don't catch my feelings and take me on a journey, they're transparently testpieces - often still fun to play, though) - this one is comfortably his best writing.
@@EnglishTMTB Disagree. he is an absolute master of counter melody
Pure class from first to last note
え、エグい
日本で金管ブラスバンドやりたいんだけど、吹奏楽みたいにコンクールないすかね
2:28 is godly

Yay!
7:40 is emotional
Why this video viewed number of 248,700 times????????????????
この演奏って、ブリタニア・ビルディング・ソサエティ・バンドですかね？？
10:22 for finale
That 2nd movement just gets me everytime. Who plays the trombone solo?
So true...
Nick Hudson...
thank you very much!
Peter Nielsen l
@@henrykreurich76 how can he play the trombone solo if he's the conductor?
everyone says this is the best performance.. of all the recordings i've heard of this magnificent piece, nothing is like Eikanger-Bjørsvik Musikklags winning performance from the Norwegian Nationals in 1999!
Now that was a great performance
How can I find this recording?
8:00
11:38
Can anyone get me this score ??
Does the instruction call for trombone sliding, cause there's a ton sliding going on in this recording.
In the rigid structure of brass band, just like in any other mass musician group, there is little room for maneuver in a written piece. But, solo work is different. Philip Sparke gave this solo to trombone for a reason, Sparke had a dream, and Nick Hudson recognized that dream. Nick connected. Some things you just cannot convey on a sheet of manuscript.
Too many gaps. I played in 1986 too.
Movement II is still a bit fast for my likings.
Just not quite as good as Desford.......
please post Desford performance. Because this is musical perfection. Middle movement is not bettered by live music anywhere in my humble opinion
Yes, please post where to find the Desford performance, all that is on TH-cam is a minute and 30 second clip...
@@mstrawson1 th-cam.com/video/CB-8qsxQoE8/w-d-xo.html
prefer this performance over Desford's
