Love this piece. Played it back in my high school wind ensemble (West Monroe High, 2023). Would have loved to play this in a symphony orchestra.

So thrilled there's now an orchestral version of this work! Absolutely AMAZING! Bravo tutti!

[@robertperez2262]

So none of the basses dropped their uprights in favor of electric basses at Shout? Sad electric bass noises 😢

[@eldarhudiyev20]

Unbelievable!!!

[@MK-qr4jo]

Is there a score of this I can find?

[@ttvasakis]

Who is the arranger?

[@ChristopherRahn]

This was not written by an Arranger. It was Arranged for Orchestra by the Composer, Omar Thomas himself. Omar Thomas works at UT, so it made it very easy to do this with his own university Orchestra. Also, Omar came to the Podium to be recognized at the end.
