While you guys fight it out, I'm happy for both of your contributions. These songs may or may not still be known in the UK, but thanks to RVW, they're known all over the world.
i'm playing piccolo for this and obviously ralph williams hated all piccolo players because he wrote a 42 measure rest and then a solo. i mean come on my instrument cools down in that time!
Then there's the ridiculous amount of trumpet solos with barely any break, leaving us to get completely tired out by the end, which has the most trumpet-focused solo. Fun.
+Theodore Thomas I was just commenting on the music. Of course I did that but it doesn't keep the instrument as fresh as playing it would. Please don't pretend you know the limitations of my instrument better than I do.
+Theodore Thomas Honestly you're the one being the know-it-all here. Nobody asked for your input, and anyway my initial comment was a humorous statement that clearly went over your head. I'm sorry though that I have less musical training than you and clearly am not able to feel comfortable with this type of music when I am currently at a high school level. I'm sorry you seem so arrogant to think that telling people not to jokingly complain on TH-cam will get any positive results. For better responses to your helpful criticisms, please try reading what you wrote before posting. Peace
OMG! I have been listening and playing this piece for over 40 years (yes, 40) and this is the first time I heard the "12 Days of Christmas" verse in there.
I remember a gal in HS played the flute part solo for us in a test. There was dead silence, it was the most impeccable performance I heard as a young person from another teen. Lovely piece. You know you're living in Covid 19 times when you start looking up sheet music from 30+ years ago.
omg i loved that part too i played this last year for top band in varsity i loved all the woodwind parts i play baritone but when they would have woodwind sectionals i would stay and listen because the beginning and the 3rd movement beginning sound sooo amazing
As a clarinet player, this is one of my favorite pieces, even though the 6/8 in the first movement kills me @120 bpm. This and Lincolnshire Posey are my favorites of alllll time
I gotta play this for my bands spring concert. I dont wanna play Dives and Lazarus because of how high it is and how fast it ends up being when we play. I play flute. Save me
This is an amazing staple for concert band literature. The 6/8 in first movement is, probably, my favorite part, and the part towards the end of the third movement where it changes from 6/8 back into 2/4. This is such an amazing piece!
Oboe player here, one of the most spectacular pieces I've ever had to the privilege of playing. My Bonny boy gives me chills, and always will. It's an honour to be able to introduce a movement, and then hear the band carry the momentum forwards into something a little bit more refined and beautiful, less timid, but more melancholy.
Aaaaah, Bonny Boy 3:27 so haunting! Also his riffs on the tune are jazz-like and almost psychedelic, reflecting ahead and behind the main line. Cutting in a snatch of The Cutty Wren at 5:41 as the "lift in tone" is just inspired :-)

Mr. Piazza was my high school band teacher. He retired and moved to another state in 2018 but is and always was like a father to me. He got me through some terrible times and taught not just music to all of his students but, life lessons, confidence, love, friendship, and just about everything good in life. He helped me get to first chair flute and eventually confident enough to learn and play 3 different instruments, which I never thought I could do before freshman year. This piece always makes me think of the amazing times I had in band class because of my love for music, my awesome bandmates, and the best teacher I have ever had. Thank you so much Mr. P. You were more of a father to me than my own father was. I’m a decent person because of you and will continue to be until I leave this world. MHS band forever ❤️❤️
Playing Bari sax in this song over spring break in Orlando for a competition This piece is as satisfying as a perfectly buttered dinner roll. God damn!
We just played this and it is an absolutely beautiful piece. This is a great recording, I highly recommend this as a resource for those who are learning the piece.
@@katwilliams8548 Me too - I'm the only young oboist in my extremely musical town, so I get to be in the youth orchestra, even though I have only been playing 2 years. I get this solo and it is lovely!
Oh my, the memories. My 9th grade symphonic band played this piece back in 1983. The following year, my first year of marching band, we did Folk Song Suite as the opener to our field show. It's a wonderful piece in both formats. 😊
i remember playing this piece as a 1st seat 1st trumpet over 45 years ago in high school and still have it memorized! We won band competitions with it! Beautiful!
I auditioned and made high s😮chool honor band in either my sophomore or junior year. Can't remember as it has been many years since. We opened with this song and I remember vividly who conducted the band. His name was Carl Chevellard (sp?) who was the guest conductor that year. I remember him because for some reason he asked the baritone/euphonium section to play each a tuning note. I think I was either last or second to last to play. He said "finally, someone under pitch!". I think that was a good thing.
"You are a Symphonic Wind Ensemble that just happens to move." ~Clifford K. Chapman My high-school band director. As he showed us excerpts from this for marching band season.
When I played this, as a trumpet player, there were solos for TRUMPET in Pretty Caroline, My Bonny Boy, AND On a Morning Dew! I still can't find a recording where it has them all!
This popped into my head today, so I looked it up. I played the flute part 40+ years ago. Hearing it again, it's funny how well I remember it. I loved it then, I love it now.
Were playing this for the spring concert but the 6/8 section in the first movement is killing. I cant only play like half of it currently ant full tempo
Played 1st Bassoon for this piece recently, the accompaniment to the oboe/horn part right before the March segment in the first movement was beautiful to play.

Playing this perfectly constructed, exuberant piece in high school concert band made me interested in twentieth century music. That will seem odd to German musicologists, but It was the sheer joy of performing the clarinet and bass clarinet parts.
Ah how I remember playing this song. The one thing I miss from my high school days is being in the concert band. Always loved playing music and this was a fun song
I played this as a clarinetist in college. I was in the band, and we played this song a few times. This was a very fun piece. I especially liked the first and third movements
I hear this suite and I'm transported back to SHS high band, as I played snare on the first movement * TRIANGLE * on the intermezzo and bass drum on third movement. Oh, the pure joy...and our cymbal player went postal on the third movement!
My band was going to play this for our December concert, but unfortunately a tornado hit a week before, and didn't get to play it. This is an amazing piece, my favorite section is the slow moving part :) I am a clarinet player btw
I played this when I was in band. I played flute. The only way I could do it was to just memorize it because looking at the mess of jumbled music notes on the sheet of music was too hard for me.

Rankurusu777 "only a horn player" DUDE do you not understand how important and loved our instrument was to Vaughn Williams, Holst, Grainger, and Wagner JUST TO NAME A FEW!
Rich Chameroy I love it too but if you're a flute player and playing this I'm high school and having to learn it in a couple of months is hard as can be because those notes are written way above the staff. But do have to admit I love this piece and the low brass part during the triplet section in movement 1.
3rd movement is most definitely the best. We played this in symphonic band last year and the 3rd movement was my absolute favorite from this piece! I play flute, and the parts starting from 8:57 are my favorite!

The 6/8 against 2/4... I played this my sophomore year in HS on bari sax and that section always got me soooo excited. Just hearing the piccolo and flutes and clarinets struggle while I had the same part as low brass... hehehe
So thankful that the Alto Sax gets to brap with the low brass at 65. My brother plays bass trombone and it's amazing to turn around after our part and share the excitement 😂
If you play it for a concert and then you wait for a year to play it again for enjoyment, it's pretty amazing how well you can remember it so well for so long.

I’m in 7th grade at the time of writing this, my band instructor knows we’re good and one of the best he’s had. So he decided to give us hard music to play. I play French horn along with two others. Our band is fairly big. 50-60 ish people. So we have to play a bit louder to be heard. Anyway, I feel as if everyone hates the French horn and gives them music so easy that when we do a chair test it sounds like our warm ups. Every time we get new music I hope it’s hard or challenging it never is. That false hope is always there though.
Appreciate being young, and being in school band while you can. I know that you can't really comprehend the depth of what I'm saying, or what it means. But one day you will. Cherish this time while you can, it won't come again. I miss band everyday of my life!

its so cool how half the band is in 2/4 and the other half is in 6/8
Ikr? It's awesome how that works out.
I think it stops being cool when you have to conduct
No, not really, I think it'd just be a matter of the conductor beating in 2.
Thats my favorite part
You can either count it in 6/8 or count them as triplets in 2/4. Either way, the conductor conducts in 2, and no one in the audience is any the wiser.
I’m our high school’s solo trumpet and this piece is killing me. THE STAMINA THIS NEEDS!!! Godspeed to any other trumpet soloists on this piece.

I’m only @ you bc you’re right
I agree if you r a base. But rip me ima flute

great ♫♪♫♪♫♪☺ BRAVISSIMO @/bisbis 🎶🎵🎼 great music! a well tuned ensemble that sounds like an organ ! Fabulous basses!
Such a classic. I played it in high school band, then my daughter played it in her high school band.
I played this when I was in band. I played flute. The only way I could do it was to just memorize it because looking at the mess of jumbled music notes on the sheet of music was too hard for me.

I may be only a horn player with nothing too exciting in the Dives and Lazarus part but...
*H O L Y S H I T* do I love that section
Rankurusu777 ME TOO
Rankurusu777 "only a horn player" DUDE do you not understand how important and loved our instrument was to Vaughn Williams, Holst, Grainger, and Wagner JUST TO NAME A FEW!
But at least the horn parts have the Picardy 3rd at the end of movement 1 and the awesome part in the second half of the third movement
Rankurusu777 I’m a flute and that part sounds legendary but its a nightmare to play it’s a fun challenge though
Played this in high school - trumpet. Loved that they called Movement 2 My Pony Boy.
I have heard many recordings of this delightful piece but this remarkable. Brilliant!
Playing this for 10th grade this year along with Sky Dance BG Richard L. Saucedo and they are both so challenging but yet so fun. I play flute!
n the first day of christmas my true love sent to me... in the third movement.
No wonder why it sounded familiar. XD
Bum. Now I won't hear anything else. Bugger.
"On the first day of Christmas my true love *gave* to me..."
James Duffy sent*
@@harryroberts4453 it might just be different. James Duffy and I myself sing it *gave* , and you sing it *sent* .

every-time i hear this music it reminds me of the animals of farthing wood or watership down, it feels like it belongs in those kind of stories.
Playing this arrangement in Grade 9. I love it! Percussion is fun in many parts.
me too!
It's so awesome to see so many people get to know this song before university; Ralph Vaughan Williams is a stellar composer to know.
The Nickster I played this this year on saxophone with an alto clarinet part.
ooo same tuba life tho
The Nickster nickelback is the best
I have played this piece a few times, and I am obsessed with the first and third movement.
I play clarinet on this piece and I love it especially at measure 65
Miguel Deleon honestly, same. The rest of the section complains about it and here's me, just jamming out to measure 65 😂
Yeah I love that part too. It's so fun to play, I would say the only thing that I don't like is that there isn't very many places to breathe.
I play the bass clarinet and its way more fun to play the part at 1:09 was lit
@Miguel Deleon Doesn't everybody love that part at Bar 65?
Not the cough in the silence 😂 5:42
Love the Triplet passages in the upper wwds.
Rich Chameroy I love it too but if you're a flute player and playing this I'm high school and having to learn it in a couple of months is hard as can be because those notes are written way above the staff. But do have to admit I love this piece and the low brass part during the triplet section in movement 1.
3rd movement is most definitely the best. We played this in symphonic band last year and the 3rd movement was my absolute favorite from this piece! I play flute, and the parts starting from 8:57 are my favorite!

I play baritone/euphonium and i realkly enjoyed playing this piece
This is just the best piece I’ve ever played
I love this piece. I played this piece a little more than a year ago on 1st and 2nd clarinet. I wish I could go back in time and play this again.
If you've got the part, play along with this recording. :-)
@@gracegorman3306 I don't have the part. But I can actually read my part on the recording and play along. :D

I have this piece, its one of my favs
This always makes me imagine being a pirate on some epic adventure across the seven seas
I love this song so much, and go euphoniums! (I play euphonium lol)
Just finished a concert I also play the euph I’m glad there are people out there who loves the euph just like me and pls tell me you still play
As a cellist, I love this piece

Played e flat clarinet in this a few years back, so much fun!!
Robert Schumann Quote : Composing something real unique is writing down a melody/set of notes that no one else ever had done before.... ♫♪🙏 ✨ 🙌 ❤ 💛 💖
The 6/8 against 2/4... I played this my sophomore year in HS on bari sax and that section always got me soooo excited. Just hearing the piccolo and flutes and clarinets struggle while I had the same part as low brass... hehehe
And now I have a new reason to
Be excited: my college band is playing Folk Song Suite!!!
The part where the woodwinds are playing in 6/8 and the low brass blasts a melody over it in 2/4 is my favorite thing about this piece.
English folk is amazing
Any Low brass here (Trombone)
Euphonium!!! Low Brass FTW
trombone!
Wereverchiquen moi. Baritone, Trombone, Tuba, Euphonium as needed
Yabohl!
Euphonium counts as low brass so hi.
So thankful that the Alto Sax gets to brap with the low brass at 65. My brother plays bass trombone and it's amazing to turn around after our part and share the excitement 😂
I played this song for my region clinic in January 2019. It felt good to be a part of something. I feel empty and purposeless now.
I have only about 10 classical CD's, but this is one of my favs....!
@stevendphoto u chosen wisely and tastfull choosiung this too!!!! ♫♪
Played this in the bottom end of the band (bass Trombone and Tuba) in its concert and brass band versions. Great piece
Ayyy same, I have a contra trombone and it sounds so cool
im a proud 2nd violin and i absolutely love this song
I remember preforming this piece with the Honolulu Youth Symphony. The sun was shining.
I really like on the first movement when part of the band goes on 6/8 while the rest is on 2/4!
Juan Velasquez trust me its harder than you think playing this piece.
Amethyst Gamer and that's that I have been playing this piece since January!
If you play it for a concert and then you wait for a year to play it again for enjoyment, it's pretty amazing how well you can remember it so well for so long.

I’m in 7th grade at the time of writing this, my band instructor knows we’re good and one of the best he’s had. So he decided to give us hard music to play. I play French horn along with two others. Our band is fairly big. 50-60 ish people. So we have to play a bit louder to be heard. Anyway, I feel as if everyone hates the French horn and gives them music so easy that when we do a chair test it sounds like our warm ups. Every time we get new music I hope it’s hard or challenging it never is. That false hope is always there though.
Appreciate being young, and being in school band while you can. I know that you can't really comprehend the depth of what I'm saying, or what it means. But one day you will. Cherish this time while you can, it won't come again. I miss band everyday of my life!
Oh it gets way harder, look at children's march by Grainger or American overture for band of you want examples
Such a beautiful piece. x
This rocks, super fun to listen and play I hope. Crossing my fingers…
