The best.

Does anyone else hear the wrong note in the horn at 11:30? Isn't it supposed to be a D major chord, with the horn holding a concert F#? He is playing concert F and making it a minor chord. I don't have the score in front of me, but I'm pretty sure...was this a difference in the manuscript? I can't imagine this group/Fennell holding a wrong note for 4 beats!

I played this song when I was a senior in high school in Wind Ensemble. When I was a senior in high school, my dog was acting all lethargic ever since from Christmas weekend till after april break. I was so stressed about him. Fearing that he might have cancer. The next day when my dad took him to the vet, I became so stressed about what was going to happen with him. In Wind Ensemble when I was so stressed about what was going to happen to him and I was playing this song in my band while I was stressed. Hard part about it was, he had lymphoma and died from lymphoma at age 10 1/2 and the vet didn't catch it in time. He died 2 weeks before my high school graduation. Every time I listen to this song it makes me feel like the vet could've done better at testing my dog for cancer when he was throwing up back christmas weekend. Dogs do not have the ability to tell their owner "we're not well" and they don't have the ability to open doors like humans.

I was the lead clarinet for this recording thanks everyone for the nice comments it was a difficult piece but very fun and rewarding to play

Never equalled! This is truly the definitive version of Percy Grainger's masterpiece for band.

This is one of-if not the best-recordings of this great masterpiece I’ve ever heard! So balanced and clear you can hear every part. Thanks maestro Fennell and the Eastman Wind Ensemble!

This is onsane

グレンジャー、素晴らしい作品などで大好きです。 子供たちの行進も。 ここでのイーストマンの演奏もメリハリが利き日本人好みかな。

Wow, it really seems like the director was rushing through this, as if he were trying to just get it out of the way.

We played this for my junior year of high school. I love this piece!

Played this almost 50 years ago with the University of Colorado concert band. It made a stunning impression on me. Truly one of the standout pieces for band.

A beautiful performance of a beautiful piece.

4:28 should be 1/8 = 132 oops

this sounds like it could be the background music in the Incredibles but also a jungle tribe and a Medieval bar

One of the Best, here in the Philippines, we still play Cyrus the Great and we all loved it. -Clarinetist here

When your grandchildren are in band, this piece will be there waiting for them.

Eastman class of ‘04. Represent.

i absolutely love playing this song

Flugelhorn: Broke Soprano Sax: W O K E

My band teacher made 7th and 8th graders do it it wasn’t that bad

1:18 sounds like the desert in dancing line

Oh YEAH - this is bringing back all kinds of band memories - this piece in particular channels pure terror remembering those exposed piccolo solos during symphonic band competitions! Agree with some of the other posters that this piece is much more appealing to me as an adult than it was when I was 17! :) Thanks Mr. Lloyd Ross, band director extraordinaire for having us play such advanced material in HS!

This sounds just like the 2019 Florida all state band playing this

Tf was that at 8:40? Do you wanna kill we poor clarinets...

This brings back memories of my high school freshman year when I made wind ensemble. I had never played a piece with more emotion in my life so I keep coming back to it. That is how big of an impact this song had on me.💕

Ahhhh, I love the piccolo in the first movement❤

ha ha stupid

I love this piece so much that I think 1,000 of these views are just mine.

I played this in 7th grade

Percy Grainger is the closest we'll ever get to a modern-day Mozart.

0:36 Percussion?!?!?!?!?!?!

Hey gamers

For Lord Melbourne they held those last chords for like 2 seconds, those are supposed to be huge!

Last year in school I played movements 2 and 6. I just got around to listening to the whole thing!

Doesn't get much better than this.

Does anyone else think the young sailor in the fourth movement was perhaps a bit too brisk and that the piece is in fact a musical portrait of premature ejaculation?

Bruh I love the tenor sax parts <3

8th grade memories

3:35 I get the biggest chilled ever Especially when the trombone do their hits

One rehearses Percy Grainger until it becomes familiar, at which point it is preformed to an unsuspecting audience who doesn't get it. This separation lasts the duration of one's life.

I’m playing this in marching band this year and it’s great

Hey guys! I made an arrangement of Lincolnshire Posy for Wind Quintet (flute, oboe, clarinet, french horn, bassoon). Yes, you can now play this masterpiece with your Wind Quintet! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZXKhpRplrl4j7s Currently I have 3 movements, working on the last 3! :)

Remembering PERCY GRAINGER (1882 - 1961) on his birthday !

I played this in the first year on the special orchestra in my band, I was the only senior flutest and everyone was stunned i got in

The saxophone section in this ensemble is absolutely sublime, what an absolute treat! ;)

0:30 sound is so smooth you could spread it on toast

Why dafuq is the opening of Rufford Park Poachers SOOO fast and rushed O.o

in the words of my band director, you either love this song or hate it with a passion, theres no in-between

Playing this this year, too bad my band director won't let me play soprano sax :/

We are playing all 6 movements for our spring concert for high school. Wish us all the luck we can get. We are also playing Cajun Folk Songs, and Shenandoah as well. God bless us all
