Hypnotic Fireflies by Brian Balmages (Rehearsal Track)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ส.ค. 2024
- This imaginative work depicts a view of an open field on a summer night, when thousands of fireflies light up the darkness. Eventually, the listener is hypnotized by these lights and wakes up in the middle of the field, completely engulfed in magnificent glowing lights. A wealth of interesting effects (including a metal slinky) contributes to the unique and creative sound of this feature work.

This Piece, will be the death of me
Was lucky enough to have the piano part when I was with my High School band. Fantastic piece.
I’m playing it today for judges! It really is a fun piece to play
@@doggly8948 I just played for judges too, what school did you go to to play?
I get to play it this year and i’m so happy
Now I know there are some French Horns lurking in here, don't think I don't hear the part where you get to play super loud ;)
Mitosis yes sir!
First horn reporting!!!
You already know bro
How do you catch me 😨 I love that part tho, we’re playing this in band and I finally learned it
It says metzo forte but I ingnore that and say forte
about to play this piece for my last day of band/concert. love the song. its so deep. a b flat trumpet
The trumpet piece is amazing
Ahhh yes a fellow trumpeter who is playing this song 🎺
I almost did this for my 7th/8th grade mid-state honor band a few years back, it was one of my favorites and they cut it out :,(
Too bad... maybe you will get to play it again some day?
We are doing it for the Symphonic Band at our school it’s fun! It sucks that you’re band program cut it hopefully one day you get to play it at a concert 😁
James nah, it’s a nice piece, but the guest conductor cut it because the program was simply too long. Our actual band program is way too high a level now to play this, but it’s nice in theory. Thank you though
same and i was chosen for the piano part (i’m normally percussion)
Love coming back to this song every once in a while.. played this in my 7th grade UIL competition and I was doing the bell sounds in this piece with the piano and absolutely loved it 😩
Literally one of the most exhausting pieces I've played in a while.
I did this for my 7th/8th grade middle school year. I was Crach cymbal, and the amplified metal Slinky, and Triangle Love this peace. 2:20 my fav part.
I I’m doing this in honor band with china cymbal and suspended cymbal
Umm… what kind of cymbals lol
euphonium player here 2:20 is my favorite too
I wanna freaking cry every time I hear this piece
the piano part gets me so much man🥲 my middle schools advance band played this and it sounded so nice especially the piano it made me wish my band teacher gave us this song even though im in intermediate band😅
My hands hurt thinking about this song because I was assigned the piano part
That's actually quite sexy
@@strikefire6990 lmao what
2:30 sounds so ominous and I love it
YUS I'M PLAYING THIS IS BANDDD
Meme lord still In grade school o shiii me toooo
Me too
im playing this song for my school band and 2:20 feels just like the game terraria it just fits in
BenGon21 I think it feels more like Wizard101. I can definitely hear some Terraria in there, too, if I try.
Im doing this song for a concert im in 7th grade and me and 3 other people are going to Lodi High to play with 100 other people😳 wish me luck im soo nervouse😕😳😳😆
which state was the Lodi in?
@@michaelschiller8143 i just came back to this video after a few years and i didnt realize i commented on it lol, lodi is in california:)
I’m doing this song and the piano sounds like the breath of the wild 😭
You’re so right
The trombone part in this song is one of the most simple yet the most fun trombone part (I played trombone 2)
anyone else doing this for Texas UIL?
emma east me boi
i am
my dad cuz he’s a band director
Meee
Ye
we did this for the UIL competition, the whole band thought it sucked but it ended up being the only one we got a 1 on so guess not ;)
2:24 the band director said "FRENCH HORNS PLAY FF THIS IS YOUR MOMENT TO SHINE"
I play horn and I almost never get parts like this. Our band director told us to raise our horns 90 degrees to the side and play very loud. The part for horns is mostly rests, but that part completely makes up for it. :D
Why are all bands connected like how do you know that lmao.
@@mitosis6575 WDYM?
I bet all the band directors are in on it
Jackie Perez lmao
This is an amazing band piece. I played this in high school freshman year spring concert and senior year creepy concert.
This song is very special to me cause in eighth grade I got chosen to be a fourth clarinet in high school band for UIL and this was my favorite song
who else is here to discover what the hell happens there where you should play?
(I play the oboe in this and i agree that this is soooo beautiful piece :0)
Our band was lucky enough to meet the composer of this piece at one of our summer camps. He was amazing, and very talented. You could tell he was passioniate about his work. Great piece!
Wow, thank you for the story!
Back when I played this in middle school I always imagined this as a superhero theme, and to this day I feel the same.
Ik you said this like 3 months ago but when I played this in 8th grade I always thought of it as a superhero theme especially at the climax
I did this piece for the Troy University Clinic and Brian Balmages conducted… it was an amazing experience!! I did the clarinet part and it was so fun to play!! 💕
WireGrass how did your concert go?
This is for personal reasons feel free to ignore
0:00 0:15 0:20 0:23 0:26 0:35 0:43 1:01 1:05 1:08 1:11 1:15 1:18 1:37 1:45 1:54 1:57 2:06 2:20 2:34 2:43 2:47 3:04 3:11 3:19 3:30 3:50 4:10
I love 2:20 so much. Mainly because I play the trumpet and I love getting to play super loud lol
I did this for Senior SYMS last year! It was so fun! one of my favorite pieces yet! I played Glockingshpeal (bells).
I'm doing this song this year for a concert and I love it
I’m doing this for my final high school festival in a month and a half. So excited and nervous!
So um... They canceled the festival due to Covid-19 so...
BMORanger i feel so bad! this piece is amazing
You really feel like ur in a field with wonder in ur eyes in the milled of the music it really gets in you deep I can’t wait to play that music for our UIL
i get to place this piece for my 7th/8th grade spring concert this year and i absolutely love it. i play alto sax part 1 :)
My band Is going to play this for a UIl Competition. The beginning of this sounds Magical. It is a very beautiful piece
This is so beautiful ❤
I remember doing this for Senior SYMS 2018! (I was playing the bells)
Im playing this for my UIL concert ☝️🤓
the first time i saw the music i almost cried
i play saxophone 2 and its really nice sounding tho
The fact that the French horn part have me goosebumps is astronomical!
I'm working on this piece in my HS band right now and everyone's having so much fun playing it, it's genuinely such a great piece
2:09 is and will always be the best so good it gives me goosebumps
We’re playing this and the shaker gifts in my ensemble
We played this in middle school and got gold at completion for it. Now concert band is playing another piece from him ( When Spirits Soar) and im super jealous because im in the advanced band and i dont believe we play similar music 😤
i can’t be the only one that think 0:42 sound like the intro to barbie fairytopia mermaidia lmao
played this today for my first NEIBA honor band. it was pretty great
I'm currently trying to learn how to play this as a first clarinet. It's actually pretty easy and cool ngl. 😎 don't worry my band is actually doing really well in terms of sight reading this piece. There's only two first clarinets and we're both like, "don't do this to us 😭😭)
Same it was just me playing 1st clarinet and I was like why would y’all do this to me but now I have another person to play with me.
I had the piano piece #classof2018 my senior year
I was a 7th grader who got to play with my 8 grade band (clarinet) this is one of the best pieces I’ve ever played
Being promoted is always cool!
Yeah it was awesome!
Played this piece for UIL along with 2 others, we scored a 2. And a 1 one sight reading
I’m playing this for a concert and I swear this is the entire energy of the band
Flutes: We have to trill for 29 measures
Trumpets: We also have to trill for (insert amount of measures) *i forgot*
And them there is me (oboe) and the French horns from 108 to the end:
WAIT!! YOU GUYS ARE GETTING TO PLAY?????
Us trumpets got a 14 ish repeated trill at the end
No because fr from a bass clarinet
playing it for my final concert hooray
Played it last year and I miss it😢
00:43 sounds like Something's Coming from West Side Story
I’m so glad I play French horn! And 2:25!!!
i got 2 play this 4 uil last week
Percussion anyone?
Me! I play all of mallets 2! :D
I played the piano, my dad taught me.
Slinky gang
Yoooooo, slinky gang
Bass drum
As a French horn player it is fun to actually be able to play a loud part
I'm playing the triangle, snare, and finger cymbals, and my god its fun.
Anyone else clarinet?
Ğãłäxy Đęvįł_73021 me! I really love 2:20!
Playing this at WMS(middle school) for band!
bainnn hold up Wiley Middle School?
I played this and Arrows for festival in freshman year. I was the only freshman out of the three flutes on 1st in all the songs we played
🔥

2:17 is straight out of wandavision istg
Haha I play second clarinet for this this year at our winter concert in high school
Shoutout to bell player homies
Master J I did bells on this lol

@@TheBandMan dang I'm gonna have to listen to it again today but I do remember it going well.
I'm 1st clarinet and I'm STRUGGLING so hard on measure 64
I adore this part 1:54
anyone get batman vibes from 2:20 - 3:10?
I was literally scrolling through the comments just to see if anyone thought the same thing.
The alto sax has one of the best parts, I love it when we go from b flat to a flat really anytime
very cool at 0:00
I get to play the slinky in my band class
1:11 that weird sound was it an accident or intentional, am I missing something?
RANARMAN ! I’m pretty sure it’s intentional but I’m not 100%🙃🥖
@@pebble5335 idk it sounded like a flute crack
Not at exactly 1:11, but there is this weird spot that is an amplified slinkie
@@almightyllamaqueen9720 yea that probably is what they heard.
Slinky, the metal kids toy that goes down stairs by itself.
Who else is here because they play marimba?
TROMBONE REPRESENT
if anyone has played this in band could i have some tips? i do percussion lol we are learning this song
Edit: just played this for festival, we did awesome!
all I have is try not to get nervous but I'm just an 8th grade trumpet player good luck!
@@user-oe5sd9lv4f ty I’m in the brass class it’s so hard to hear anything when the trumpets play at the beginning of class lol
amplified slinky?
@@TheBandMan sadly we don’t have a slinky in my band class :(
I'm a bari sax and measure 94 is my fav the balance from g to f# is just 😤😤😤😤
Trombone
It's ez I played it for UIL
same here
Hey fellow Dylan, I'm also playing this, if that's what you meant by "same here".
for some reason 1:01 sounds like something outta pikmin
Way too easy for a Trombone haha :)
Oh yeah
I’m a trombone and I’m so tired of all the easy pieces
playing this for UIL competition this year, first horn reporting for duty
This thing sounds like it came from Harry Potter
Don’t need to read this
Places I need to practice piano:
0:15
0:26
0:43
1:00 chnage
1:18
1:25 flutes come in
1:45
1:50 C# A
2:03 change Bb and Eb
3:09

And I'm in middle school
This piece was so annoying. I play trumpet and I had to do 2nd part trill even though I was first part (my band director wanted me to help the second trumpets..) and the fingerings were F# & D over and over again. (2 valve and 1 & 3 valve)

oh shit
As a Tuba player, it sounds different in the band room, but still very good.
Trombone
