It’s a music pun :D based off the scale mode phygrian, this is in D phygrian (D, Eb, F, G, A, Bb, C) like minor, but flat 2nd. It sounds like refrigeration and idk if you were joking but if you didn’t know, that’s the background behind it
i would cut my toe off just to play this piece in band i love it sm edit: please stop giving this attention 😔😔 edit 2: it’s now my senior year, my band director has finally started taking suggestions again for our final concert so this will be my fourth year in a row submitting this piece along with a few others i’ve wanted to play. will update when we get our final pieces final update: it’s the day of our final concert, this song is a part of our program, and i’m sick. So i can’t even play the song i said i would cut my toe off for. Love my life
Honestly doesn’t actually look all to bad. Except for that euph part. From my experience they don’t know what to do when they get featured and they freeze up
It wasn't until after listening to the piece twice and analyzing it both those times that I realized that the title "Rephrygeration" Was a pun. Future band director here guys... lmao
I remember reading a comment on the score video for either counterbalance or critical mass and they basically said that Todd Stalter is a god when it comes to creating fast pieces
My high school band took this to state, I remember loving this song. We didn’t have enough percussions to play this song, so I had to play bass and suspended symbol at the same time, and switch to slapstick. Overall it was a fun experience
@@awakenedxxz and?? brother my school has played my chemical romance, nirvana, nine inch nails and danzon in our shows. music is flexible. not just for one concept

That moment when you want to play a song so much but your band is a non-varsity so the director won’t let you play it and gives it to the higher band instead
Our marching show included part of this in it as the majority of its opener. It’s very fun but a bit low difficulty for grade 4 in my opinion, but I do live in Texas so I don’t really know about the rest of the country.
For me this is by far the hardest song Ive ever played. But then again, The hardest piece I played up to that point was Cut to the Chase by Todd Stalter
I mean I get that, but most bands only have 1-2 bassoons and 1-2 Tenors so they may be the same but you still wouldn't be able to hear it over the rest of the band if it was just tenors or just bassoons.
we just got this piece today, i’m really excited i might link some of my practice clips here, but idk (euphonium btw) either way, it’s incredibly fun so far
Yeah. I'm a percussionist too, and even though we are not playing this song in school, I still enjoy the use of timpani and other auxiliary percussion. I'm not complaining though; it's a great addition.
My band teacher was going to make both the Jr. and Sr. High bands to play this, but the Jr. high band couldn't play it, so he made the Sr. High band play it with out us. I'm in Jr. High band
... the highest note is a D in the staff if I'm not mistaken. I play bass clarinet and that is a GREAT range compared to most parts. Usually my highest note in a piece is an F at the top of the staff, and I've played pieces with a pianissimo attack on a C above the staff. Or lyrical parts with a staccato B above the staff after a regular lower note. This ain't high.
My band is playing this, but I don’t understand why the low saxes don’t join in with everyone else that they have the same part as when they come in. They join in like 8-16 measures later. Kind frustrating
i feel like this would be a good piece for a movement of a marching band show
kristian we actually had this piece as the majority of our opener this year. Doesn’t really relate to the theme of Rain, but it’s a little excerpt.
we are playing this for the opener of our marching show this year
agee
This would be good in any sort of band
I feel like this would be even better in concert band. Marching seems great too though.
Todd Stalter’s pieces are the music equivalent of crackhead energy
honestly
Sam hazo: laughs in arabesque
And I love it
While accurate, I can’t stop listening
@@nahfam2735 that song is painful
Finally euphonium part is important
Ever heard of Arabesque by samuel R. Hazo
Menaceing_GAMER_ 05 I Agree
yessssss omg when i play this part i feel great and it sounds awesome!!!!
We’re not just mumbles for once
*cough* The Melody Shop *cough*
It’s weird to think that this piece is about keeping food at a comfortable temperature
Jake it is ?!
It’s a music pun :D based off the scale mode phygrian, this is in D phygrian (D, Eb, F, G, A, Bb, C) like minor, but flat 2nd. It sounds like refrigeration and idk if you were joking but if you didn’t know, that’s the background behind it
@@evelynlewis8057 well the name is rephrygeration
Blue Diamond true lol
Legit confused
Xylo is so lit in this piece
Yes, unfortunately my hands would fall off.
There are about only 2 guys back in my school who I think could play this.
Fr
I would love to play the xylo part
Ive played this and it was so LIT
U can hear the Alto Sax part so clearly it's amazing (Tenor as well)
Ikr in most music recordings, the alto sax is barely heard. Sometimes it doesn’t even sound like a saxophone
Recently alto saxophones have been getting a lot more attention in music other then jazz
Yea its a little bit less in real life tho, but stil nice and juicy 😁
You can’t hear our saxophones at all 😭
i would cut my toe off just to play this piece in band i love it sm
edit: please stop giving this attention 😔😔
edit 2: it’s now my senior year, my band director has finally started taking suggestions again for our final concert so this will be my fourth year in a row submitting this piece along with a few others i’ve wanted to play. will update when we get our final pieces
final update: it’s the day of our final concert, this song is a part of our program, and i’m sick. So i can’t even play the song i said i would cut my toe off for. Love my life
LOL
A little much but me too
Same
Wait wat u did?
It's an awesome piece! I'll just say that... In-person is better than the recording
Alto saxes:
French horns: HOLD MY BEER
HA
This is the most realistic depiction of ADHD I have ever seen
as an adhd, I am realistically depicted
I just had a stroke looking at the sheet music and finding out the tempo is 160 bpm
not fast at all if you're in marching band
YaBoyEj YES
@@floheart1 eyy that's true our show last season was at 160bpm in 9/8, it was so fun
Julian Ganseco I agree but my band got scored superior on this piece at mpa so I can’t hate it too much. I actually miss playing it
Honestly doesn’t actually look all to bad. Except for that euph part. From my experience they don’t know what to do when they get featured and they freeze up
It wasn't until after listening to the piece twice and analyzing it both those times that I realized that the title "Rephrygeration" Was a pun. Future band director here guys... lmao
Max Behymer how?
TheRagingInfernape Rephrygeration, Refrigeration. See it? It says so in the description I think
TheRagingInfernape the song is based around the mode called Phrygian it’s a play on words
Ikr lol
At first I thought Phrygian was pronounced fy-grian and the pun was lost on until I figured out it was pronounced fridge-ian
Almost all of Todd Stalter's songs are very fast and sporadic 😂
Terrarian Doge thats what makes them so dope. Todd stalter is definitely one of my favorite composers
Oh you're that guy who thought Ride by Samuel Hazo was the TØP song you thought. 😂
I remember reading a comment on the score video for either counterbalance or critical mass and they basically said that Todd Stalter is a god when it comes to creating fast pieces
bum. bumbum. bumbumbumbumbumbum. buuu bum. BUMBUM. BUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUM. BUUUM BUM. So lit
TheRagingInfernape why can I hear what you typed
I know right
excuse me what
I know right; We played this last year in our band and it sounded better in person than the recording gives it credit to.
TheRagingInfernape I was listening to that part as I read the comments
A piece as good as this would sound cool in Star Wars.
the tuba and bass clarinet at 1:21 sounds like a cello... which is really dope
there is a contrabass doubling the bass part
My favorite part to play in this piece….bass clarinet.
My high school band took this to state, I remember loving this song. We didn’t have enough percussions to play this song, so I had to play bass and suspended symbol at the same time, and switch to slapstick. Overall it was a fun experience
This has to be one of the best written songs in musical history!
Bohemian Rhapsody takes that spot though
No
@@rolandvermiglio9105 no
sightly agee
Ride tho
I know this has already been commented, but the french horns at 2:08 are FIRE
This song was rearranged and it became the closer to my school’s marching show this year!
oh god no this is a concert piece
hi brenna
@@awakenedxxz and?? brother my school has played my chemical romance, nirvana, nine inch nails and danzon in our shows. music is flexible. not just for one concept
My band played this last year, and we're so obssesed with it
2:32 is soooo lit
i would literally kill to play this piece
Composed for my group, and we are playing it this year. Absolutely amazing :)
The euphonium part is lit
so is the first clarinet part
Nahtanoj Enotsylb so is the tuba part
Nahtanoj Enotsylb this whole song is lit
Nahtanoj Enotsylb hell yah euphonium is the best instrument
hell yeah
Are we not gonna appreciate the trombones?!
Gotta hand it to trombones dude
no
no ❤️
absolutely not
No 🤭
amazing piece, my band took it from australia to hawaii and played it for months
I love the saxes melody...❤️❤️❤️starts at 0:13😀😀😀
Yeah, as a sax player, your fingers are pretty much moving light speed lmao
We have to play this and I want to cry
This was arranged to be my marching show last year and it was so much fun.
I sight read the xylo part the other day it was fun
I love the euphonium part of this song!
Fr fr it’s so fun to play
No Common Sense made an arrangement for 6 trumpets i transposed into 6 euphs and am using for a school ensemble piece
The French horn parts are insane!!
Idk if I will be able to play that lol
I don't know why but I am in love with this song and I'm showing it to my band director for concert season
Horn part at 1:03 and 2:08 is EPIC
fr
is this pronounced like refrigeration
I know right.lmao
yeah. the name’s a music pun because the piece based on the phrygian scale
Julian Ossa i didn’t know that until like last week XD
I can’t even sightread this and I’m in eighth grade symphonic band! Amazing stuff.
Finally a fun part for the bass clarinet
Band teacher be like : Kid- are you having a sezier? teacher- n-no just conducting!~

1:21 I enjoy this soli so much... i wanna play it on tenor sax
It’s a tuba bass clarinet duet actually
I’m playing Trumpet in this piece and THIS PART gets me all giddy every time
i hear it 1:21
I would literally sell my left kidney to play this piece in concert band for the euphonium part.
My band is playing this for festival in March
That moment when you want to play a song so much but your band is a non-varsity so the director won’t let you play it and gives it to the higher band instead
Our marching show included part of this in it as the majority of its opener. It’s very fun but a bit low difficulty for grade 4 in my opinion, but I do live in Texas so I don’t really know about the rest of the country.
This is pretty similar to other grade 4 music to me
For me this is by far the hardest song Ive ever played. But then again, The hardest piece I played up to that point was Cut to the Chase by Todd Stalter
2:38 is amazing
Great bass clarinet part!
The opening to the piece sounds like an RPG battle theme and I love it
Agreed
Yoko Shimumara
As a timpani enjoyer, THIS IS PERFECT
goodness gracious! I love this!
2:32 Sounds sooo cool
Number one thing that bothers me is when full parts are identical for two instruments (Bassoon & Tenor Sax)
And I play both so it's like hnmmmmm
I mean I get that, but most bands only have 1-2 bassoons and 1-2 Tenors so they may be the same but you still wouldn't be able to hear it over the rest of the band if it was just tenors or just bassoons.
He's my band director and I can say that he doesn't really care about the tenor saxes.
I'm a Tenor sax player and I play the same music as the bassoon player
It's very common to double tenor voices up to grade 4. When you hit grade 5 and 6. There is lots of independence in all voices.
This peice is so good that it could replace any fight song In a movie and be better than the original
This and the bass lines to arabesque would be better than any fight song in a movie
finally omg a fun bassoon part 🤞
2:18 is sooooo good
This is so cool
Bro this is our marching show😩
The sixteenth notes are too fast!
Not really
No it’s made for the music style with the background of it
Oh honey.
we just got this piece today, i’m really excited
i might link some of my practice clips here, but idk (euphonium btw)
either way, it’s incredibly fun so far
I would drop outta band if I had to play this
I played this in concert band and rember on of the keyboard/xylophone players actually fainting when we got our music
I felt them I'm outta breathe from moving so fast across the keyboard
We pkayed this last year but now we play grade 5 and up. This dong sounds and looks easy which happens when you get a grade level above.
yo dis shi hard asf
bro that timpani at 0:43
I NEED TO GET MY BE TO HAVE US PLAY THIS ONE
I've noticed this songs channels have a big focus on timpani.
Akash Geo in band I play the timpani and mallet part, it matters what day it is. Mon,wed,Fri I'm on timpani, Tuesday, Thursday I'm on mallets
Yeah. I'm a percussionist too, and even though we are not playing this song in school, I still enjoy the use of timpani and other auxiliary percussion. I'm not complaining though; it's a great addition.
Timpani for the win (he also has a focus on low brass)
0:02 at the top left it says 3 1/2 why does the first screen and thumbnail say grade 4?
At my school we are doing this piece in band lol.
sight read this in concert band today. it went allot better than i thought it would.
That's really gay I bet you sucked
Nahtanoj Enotsylb kinda. me and josh actually sight read it pretty well.
Geatle
Geatle ok pro
If Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov was still alive and watching this he would laughing so hard that he starts crying😂
I discovered this cool song on my school computer 😇
as a flute player I have a love/hate relationship with this song
Flutists have a great time playing this 😂
My band teacher was going to make both the Jr. and Sr. High bands to play this, but the Jr. high band couldn't play it, so he made the Sr. High band play it with out us. I'm in Jr. High band
I FINALLY GOT THE PART FOR XYLOOO 🤗🤗
Im in hell on this piece. I have the bell part, and I SUCK at mallet percussion
At least you don’t have xylophone like I do 😂. That articulation every-time will get you
Imagine playing this in a band with 18 people, 6 of which are percussionists… couldn’t have been my high school band…
Playing this in middle school
Yeah saxes!!!!!! 🎷0:13
I am a euphonium player and I don’t get to play this piece but I’m really upset because the part is actually good on this
Well guess who’s gonna be playing this in their spring concert
Edit: It’s been 4 years. Fuck covid for taking this from me
I've been practicing the shit out of this song
speedY KP what instrument?
im trying to master it on Trumpet, Clarinet, and Bass Clarinet lol
Robert W. Smith writes some awesome pieces man
Wrong composer buddy
LOL WRONG COMPOSER BRO
This is Todd Stalter Buckaroo
@@Terrandor UH OH forgor lmao but i aint wrong bout the RWS writing this one is great and i love it
@@JaviDavis-k2n Dang i was readin the name when i typed this comment to i appologize yall lmaoooo
I love the sound of 0:39 it sounds so nice lol
2:17 is my favorite part.
mine too i love this part!
All the people who love/d this song were not flute players. This is the devil incarnate.
Put it on double speed for chaos
Nice Bassoon part
I knew I should’ve stuck with euphonium
my middle schools honor band is playing this
xExotic_ Izzy stfu liar
he’s probably not lying, (he is in middle school) because I’m in 7th grade and my schools 8th grade advanced honor band is playing this
@@keditsyoutube I agree with you. I'm in the summer between my 6th and 7th grade year and I can just barely play this good
Nah yo, my eighth grade wind ensemble played this song. It was awesome!
The Grape Gachacle it’s a grade 4 piece. Colleges play this level. Maybe u played an easier version or y’all played WAY below tempo
Bro I remember playing this in school, we couldn’t get to 160 only like 120-140
Being the only trumpet in my school band I'd be scared at 25 if I mess up
I randomly saw this in my music playlist and what the fuck did I put in here Sounds fire tho
2:21👌🏾
I’ve never seen a bass clarinet play that high, but, ok
As a Bass Clarinetist I find how high it is kinda offensive
I’ve played higher in my band lol
I-
... the highest note is a D in the staff if I'm not mistaken. I play bass clarinet and that is a GREAT range compared to most parts. Usually my highest note in a piece is an F at the top of the staff, and I've played pieces with a pianissimo attack on a C above the staff. Or lyrical parts with a staccato B above the staff after a regular lower note. This ain't high.
I play bass clarinet in my school wind ensemble and trust me we go a lot higher 😭
My band is playing this, but I don’t understand why the low saxes don’t join in with everyone else that they have the same part as when they come in. They join in like 8-16 measures later. Kind frustrating
I came for the title
Base clair 1:20🔥🔥🔥🔥👌
Timpani all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trumpet 1 checking in.
Hehehehehehehe
I gotta do a calisthenics workout b4 I tackle this
