This was the one of the few pieces in high school I actually had to practice at home

I’ve had the absolute honor and privilege to play this piece in front of Mount Rushmore, for Rushmore music camp,with some of the greatest people in the world multiple times. It does not matter how many times I listen to this piece it still takes my breath away every single time. The recording cannot give justice to the power that this piece has.

One of my latest favorites. Would like to ket the score for this piece, for my long time friends to play together

I was so relieved when I was done with this song during lgpe those g scale runs on the baritone was a mother to get right 😭

I miss playing this in band

"Bands of American is proud to present!"

This year my son is playing this song

I was SWEATING by the end of this piece as a trombone

Perfect song to play while training trains in rdr 2

This almost made me cry a few times

2:58 euphonium solo good!

This makes me wish that I stayed in band

The fact I can still remember the notes, and everything for Bari sax is insane to me. I played this abt a decade ago

When I played this, the steam release at the end is written in as, “Haaaa” but like airy, and one of the trumpets full sent a HAAAAAA like he was laughing 😂

Middle school vibes holy

student teacher came in with this masterpiece WE AIN'T GETTIN OUT OF THE EXPRESS CAR WITH THIS ONE🔥🔥🔥🔥

I've been going through my old high school and college music and found this one. And then saw taht I played Mallet percussion (xylophone and Marimba) on it. ALL the memories of mirroring the flutes and clarinets. All of the octave parts. Jessykreesy but this thing was a nightmare to learn. Sounds AMAZING once it comes together though.

2:33 金管のうなりがとても好き　全体的にハーモーニーを楽しむ曲って感じ

Been googling every piece I can remember from high school to find out wtf my fingers keep doing cuz it ain’t the usual chromatic scale. Found it

The Horn part for this was real hard for me, but also incredibly rewarding. Great stuff, did this in College Band.

Oh man - played this on trumpet in 7th grade… good times.

The trumpet part is sooo hard (;

excerpt 4:16

I’m about to play this in a month with my high school band and oh boy mallet percussion 1 is gonna set my hands on fire

Y’all I’m playing this for concert. I can’t hear any tuba 😭

i remember being trumpet one in this all by myself

AEA 💙🤍

Bringing me back to my days in the band, this was by far my favorite piece I played in band.😂

I love this piece, but the cello bowings for it suck so much, I had to re write pretty all of them just for one measure to land on an upbow which was just a huge pain.

R.I.P all the freshmen last year 2008ish- Measure 183

Is the note at 7:57 intentional by the trumpeter

The french horns get me so amped up when the tempo picks up... man I love this piece.

Guys listen to 3:16

snare part goes hard as shit

Trombone player here. I love everything else but 3:44 and 3:50 is so cool

OH SO GOATED

why did this pop up in my recommended, I haven't been in band in 6 years lol

I had to give this song back to my band teacher today. Definetly one of the best pieces of all time

3:09 epic 😎

PERCUSSION AND LOW BRASS CARRYING THIS ENTIRE PIECE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

aw man what a high school throw back. I loved playing this, I've had it in my liked videos for years.

I remember playing the snare drum and hi-hat part in 7th grade. It felt so awesome

Playing this at region band as member of the ever prominent low brass in this song, this is by far my fav song I've ever played

Badass song

It’s currently 7am and I have been thinking about my band a lot recently. I go to a private school and there’s not many people in band, so we have a hard time every year, but we always win state. Our tenor just quit, so we are having to rearrange our entire marching show. My band director started tearing up yesterday in the middle of rehearsal because he was so stressed out. I have been thinking about my freshman year in band and my mind just flipped to this song. This is the song that won us state last year. It is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever played, and I remember breaking out in tears during the performance because of how damn perfect it was. Shout out to Bach and the 2024 Mustang Band for changing my life :). It was truly a privilege to play this with all of yall, if any of you happen to be reading this.

playing the bells on this was a core memory 😂

doing this in band right now but i can keep thinking that the moving bit where there are the semiquavers going up and down (pitch wise) sound like the A400 from MI4 Rouge Nation by Joe Kraemer especially with the trumpets and their quaver notes crescendo and decrescendo the bup bup bup....

As a Semi Truck Driver, this song is fun to crank while taking on huge mountain grades! Once I reach the top, I always time 0:55 once I start the downhill decent!

I played euphonium in 1958 on this song in High School. Great march.

Parade song for my Senior Year JFK ‘81 Sacramento CA. We weren’t much of a parade band (7/7 grand sweepstakes in field show that year) but this one worked. We played it slow - this tempo. After about a month we had the swagger going on. Mr. A, our band director complained BUT didn’t make us stop. Been looking for this one for a little while
