I was there. This is the world premiere of this piece. Now this piece becomes one of the most famous percussion notes, but no audience in there could expect it in that time. The performers were the all of 2015 BM class members of Eastman percussion, They were junior in this time. Actually, I'm dad of Sam Um who is one of the marimba players.
I'm sure you are, but you should be incredibly proud of your son. And you should be proud of yourself too; as the musician son of a musician, players like Sam don't come out of nowhere -- there's music in his blood.
Whats so interesting about this song is you notice how the parts are written almost a half measure apart from each other. Like the cajons and how they trade off at 1:13. Just like a shadow that is always behind you.
Throughout a lot of the piece, the vibraphone parts are the same rhythm except one sixteenth off. I found it very challenging when my percussion ensemble played this piece.
when everyone comes in at 6:25 it gives me such indoor wgi vibes, definitely miss playing this piece hopefully we run it back on our next night of percussion show
i have watched to the duet version but this performance is the reason that ensemble versions are always better. LIKE OMG THAT WAS AWESOME YOU GUYS!! WOO!!
Joseph Burns I like the Pulse version, but it didn’t really capture the raw emotion and beauty this piece holds for me and that’s a shame. I think the drumset addition may have killed the whole thing but that’s just me
Played this piece four years ago today for a talent show. Legendary. My most favorite and nostalgic piece. This crew performed it amazingly. Can’t even begin to think of how many times I’ve listened and watched this video.
my music teacher showed me this and I loved I showed it to my family and they loved it I showed it to my friends and they loved it these people are amazing! they seriously inspire me. I love you guys!
blows my mind that this piece is now 10 years old. it was a pleasure having the opportunity to audition in front of you back in January, Ivan! here’s to the next 10 years of this piece!
Ahh this type of music makes me tear up. Makes me miss percussion ensemble in high school and makes me wish I knew more people who want to make this type of music. Absolutely beautiful you guys, carry this passion throughout life. It's so incredible!
@@miaak.u6709 Good luck at your performance! 😁 I would highly recommend checking out Stewart Copeland’s music if you enjoy percussion and haven’t already!
wow. what an astounding performance. i love the way the “extra” instruments (vibes / Cajuns ) intermixes with the marimbas. i loved the regular duet and i think you did a fine job playing this with such musicality. i find it extremely innovative and creative of you to add in the vibes and other percussion. that is an important constituent in presenting musicianship, having your own way of performing. sure it’s great to not only play the solo but play it well but it’s an even better thing to do what you guys just did and add that little touch of your own. the vibes ring perfectly and the cajuns fit in excellently with the rest of the players. that what you call music my friends. fine job.
Man, they play this piece so damn fast, just amazing. I have a high school group playing it cleanly about 75% of this speed and I’m content with that. I can’t see us going a whole lot faster when we perform it.
Bravo !!! Mais quelle beauté cette musique et cette interprétation !!!!! C'est un grand plaisir de découvrir cette vidéo !!!! Merci pour ce beau partage
I played this song when I was secondary 3, I was in charge of marimba 1. Although this song is hard, the process is still good and I enjoyed a lot✨Catching shadow is a masterpiece.
Sono un nonno l mio nipote Giovanni Pietri di Sassuolo Modena grande appasionato di musica è molto bravo. La vostra esibizione con i marimba è meravigliosa quando Giovanni aveva 10 anni o regalato un Handpan cosi e cominciata la sua passione per le perquisizioni ora possiede marimba e anche vibrafono detto dai suoi insegnanti molto bravo. In Italia questi strumenti sono poco conosciuti speriamo che diventi bravo come voi
Ethan Concha yeah it is a good recording. I was just curious since all the audio equipment on stage may of been used for recording and not just hooking up to a sound system.
Hey i liked this peace very much, but i think the vib. was a little too dominent in the tutti playing. I loved it, but one question... Does this peace also has a brass band version(marimba+brassband) ?
MCriff1 I highly highly doubt it because most if not all percussion ensemble songs are written solely for percussion instruments because of their ability to play such fast notes and aren’t very translatable. This song is a percussion ensemble song
I am playing the Cajon part with the Hi-Hat, what is the pattern in which he is doing accents on the hi-hat? Playing on upbeats will take away from Marimba 1; so I am not sure where to play.
Matt McLellan hes just playing accents on 2 and 4 and then every 4 measures he adds "3..a..&." (the dots are just 16th note partials idk how to actually put it on here)
The kid on the right marimba is rushing so much... let the space between the notes have some time...still, great song. Kinda sad I never got to perform it.
My sole complaint is that in the initial buildup (and then again in the outro!) the two lads in the front right could have just as easily played a standard snare...instead of me being subjected to the 'acoustic box'. WTF?

I'm impressed by the sound that dude's getting out of the cajón

Yusef omg that’s why it’s called catching shadows
yeah this piece is very syncopated
Throughout a lot of the piece, the vibraphone parts are the same rhythm except one sixteenth off. I found it very challenging when my percussion ensemble played this piece.
I've watched this like ten times already, not stopping anytime soon.
Have you stopped?
Still here.
What about now?
Have you stopped ?
What about now? 🙂

Gods. All of them Gods. Ivan Trevino? God of all the Gods.
No, you're wrong
Blake Barger nah gene koshenski is a god
i have watched to the duet version but this performance is the reason that ensemble versions are always better. LIKE OMG THAT WAS AWESOME YOU GUYS!! WOO!!
I like how they added the two vibes in the back singing it really set the tone
Kamil Gomez itd be cool to have synth pads playing with the vibes too
Go check out pulse percussion 2019 lot tune
Joseph Burns I like the Pulse version, but it didn’t really capture the raw emotion and beauty this piece holds for me and that’s a shame. I think the drumset addition may have killed the whole thing but that’s just me
Yes indeed this sextet is amazing!!! 🥶
@kamil_of_2020 yes this sex tet is impressive were playing it this year💯 🥶 🔥
It's hard to find good percussion ensembles like this with nice pitched percussion voices and harmonies.
this and insomnia brings back so many memories, dude... amazing works.
I literally bought insomnia today. Me and my friend are going to learn it
Heard this in a perc. concert, and i absolutely adore it.
I love how you can see them really feeling the song, You can feel it. Great job!
0:00 to 8:56 is my favorite part
Anthony Fritz u mean the only two times in music where theirs silence ? Wowwwww
Anthony Fritz ok buddy :)
Lol funny
Saaaammme
@@t.a.b6328 he said 0:00 TO 8:56 which means he liked the whole song

Best ensemble I have ever heard. Incredible mood build up throughout the piece. Amazing.
I'm learning the marimba as a freshmen in high school and I aspire to be like that woman some day
Davis Folnsbee hell yeah dude you will get there :)
Progress check? How's it going
@@alextheshrimp. center snare 😎
@@PistachiOhMy BIG W'S WE LIKE TO HEAR THAT💯💯

This song makes me so happy and I'm going to preform olit with my percussion ensemble this year

6:26 though.... Omg. It's so perfect
so many good memories playing this piece
Absolutely beautiful and magical ! Thank you for your talent...

Like, the triple lateral section, dear God.
We are playing this price for our marching show and I’ve watched this like 50 times
Max Balasubramaniam where can I see this marching show? That sounds amazing
That wouldnt work
That breakdown is amazing
Bravo !!! Mais quelle beauté cette musique et cette interprétation !!!!! C'est un grand plaisir de découvrir cette vidéo !!!! Merci pour ce beau partage
Just subscribed. Love the musicality behind this.
Amazing and Beautiful!!!!............. Plus Sooooooooo. much hard work God Bless you Guys!
That’s fantastic.. Congratulations, great work.
Ooh, my friends are playing this in the spring!
Am I the only one looking at the cute marimba player in the middle that plays extremely well?
Lindo!!! Meu filho toca esse instrumento, porque faz percussão . Sou apaixonada por esse som!!
Woah... I am so showing this to my instructor for our ensemble to play.
And ? Did u play it ?
Lol nah I wish though. I distinctly remember him saying, "Yeah... no one's going to practice that hard."
this is a really musical performance! congrats all.
Freakin Awesome... I love this jam.
Reminds me of Animusic's Pipe Dream, very amazing.
I played this song when I was secondary 3, I was in charge of marimba 1. Although this song is hard, the process is still good and I enjoyed a lot✨Catching shadow is a masterpiece.

Wow!
I would love to play this great piece of music!!
I love this Song．
simplemente hermoso
too beautiful
Very good job on this beautiful piece!
What a phenomenal piece, the mood/atmosphere created is mesmerizing!!!
1:44 through 2:26 is my favorite part. hi hat action is so cool
Young Sam Um is so adorable!
This is so beautiful💕💕❤️
We tried playing this in my high school and we could barely make it half way
🤔
We did too. I think we had to skip a part in the middle
So awesome.
Super!!! Super!!! :))) Thanks
Incredible job
I always thought that us percussionists are stupid, until I watched this.
The Boredom Cure nah percussionists are the best
then that makes your comment stupid
I'm the best in my school and am I dumb
Zachary Cathcart Can't really verify any of that, but the second part seems legit
The Boredom Cure
my favorite spot to start is at 6:26
I think you would like it to
I'm in there!!!
The Shiny Gardevoir which one is you?
Amazing piece!
very good
Hell yeah Ivan!!!
Superb!
Does anyone know what mallets marimba 1 is using. I have a recital for my solo and I would like to use these mallets
Awesome!
BRAVO !
This is so sick.
Very Great 👍👍👍👍
Wait…is that a young Sam Um??????? I highly recommend everyone check out his performance of Libertango
Reminds me of John McEntire's drumming techniques from Tortoise. Nice!
where are you guys now. Great
GIMME DAT MARIMBA OMG O.o I WANT IT IT BOOTIFUL
Got 20 grand
Cute female marimbist! (marimba 1)/Love the ambiance!
WOW
Felicitaciones .. Es una obra muy bonita y la versión igualmente... Donde puedo encontrar la partitura gracias.
it was gr8 :D
playing this in week, the part i cant figure out is (of course) not on camera when It is plyed.
1:45 6:26
What type of cymbals are being used as a stacker?
Trash stackers. You can also just use two random cymbals
We’re doing this as our top percussion ensemble this year what mallets should we use
Shut up Kevin
they didnt perform this at pasic did they? because i knew i recognized this..
Is there a recording of this performance thats from all the mics on stage? Thanks!
Sevrin Eldred this is the best recording of this piece I've been able to find and its a great recording. Everything is blended perfectly
Ethan Concha yeah it is a good recording. I was just curious since all the audio equipment on stage may of been used for recording and not just hooking up to a sound system.

IVAN TRIVENO DADDY TBH (not rlly) BUT THIS SONG IS GREAT LOVE IT
Aaron Castleberry ok Aaron
Love the music and the total play style but the marimba NEEDS to hit the center of the bars for this piece dynamics are very important
Is there a snare in there and who is playing it?
Where can i find the score of this ensemble????
fuuuck i wanna find the music for this, especially the part the guy on the far right is playing at 1:44
I can’t find the music without purchasing it- I’m trying to piece it together by ear instead based on the notes I can see him hit.
What mallets
6:05. I heard that.
To be fair, this is about as difficult as level 7’s get
I am playing the Cajon part with the Hi-Hat, what is the pattern in which he is doing accents on the hi-hat? Playing on upbeats will take away from Marimba 1; so I am not sure where to play.
adam vu it's not written in. It's just straight sixteenth notes. I noticed I cannot to and strong beats, because it will contrast with marimba 1
Matt McLellan hes just playing accents on 2 and 4 and then every 4 measures he adds "3..a..&." (the dots are just 16th note partials idk how to actually put it on here)
Matt McLellan it also looks like he is occasionally diddling the last two 16ths of a measure
That's what I noticed and have been playing that. The accent pattern you mentioned makes sense and ill look into it. Thanks!
Who's the band?
4 Octave Vibraphones?! Excuse me.
If Minecraft had upbeat music
is this considered jazz?
Brock hedrick Nope. Percussion ensemble piece. Probably considered classical or contemporary
6:25
The kid on the right marimba is rushing so much... let the space between the notes have some time...still, great song. Kinda sad I never got to perform it.
is that the same girl who did 2+1?
+OfficialHurricaneMusic yes indeed
she is my idol
Check out this different version of Catching Shadows th-cam.com/video/4Ic-oet_OiE/w-d-xo.html
Alicja i tak zrobi to lepiej
Dont like it when groups pulse but this group laid it down
Groups pulse to keep tempo across the ensemble
+Anthony Duarte i know but alot of dci groups over hype it
it was good but it was majorly rushed....
nahhh
+Jullian Encinias the climax is supposed to be way faster than the beginning they were laying it down
He is right...They rushed it and as a consequence, they play a loot of wrong notes, especially in 7:15
Not majorly because when I performed it,it was about the same tempo
No it wasn’t
My sole complaint is that in the initial buildup (and then again in the outro!) the two lads in the front right could have just as easily played a standard snare...instead of me being subjected to the 'acoustic box'. WTF?
usmcfutball it’s a Cajon
no ❤️
@@mattdeveer3102 agreed
There's a rap song somewhere in here
