Do you sell sheet music of your arrangement? I love how you filled the string parts with other instruments and left the oboe solo alone. There is another arrangement that puts the oboe solo on alto sax! Please let me know how to obtain your arrangement. FANTASTIC VIDEO PERFORMANCE! 🤩BTW all bass drummers look like that...

Thanks! I do sell the version - I’m currently getting a website set up from which I’ll be able to sell all of my arrangements and compositions. It should be up by the end of the summer. If you would like it sooner though, email me at the email in my channel’s about tab and we can figure something out!

I'm trying to figure out which part is which; someone correct me if I'm wrong. I don't have a score with me; I'm basing this off of UMich's performance of the original (1/part) arrangement. Row 1: Bb clarinets 1, 2, 3; solo and Eb clarinets? 2 oboes (part doubled)?; piccolo; flute (part doubled) Row 2: Bb clarinets 1, 2, 3 (parts doubled?); bass clarinet (part added in later editions); 2 bassoons; another 2 flutes (covering Eb part? Oboes?) Row 3: trumpet/cornet 1? (part doubled?); horns 1, 2; bari sax (part added in later editions); tenor sax; alto sax (part doubled) Row 4: cornet 2? (part doubled?); horns 1, 2 (part doubled); trombones 1, 2, 3; euphonium Row 5: cornet 3? (part doubled?); percussion 1, 2, 3; tuba (part doubled?)

Hi Stefan! You’re close - here’s what I have (if memory serves me right): Row 1: Bb Cln 2, Bb Cln 1, solo Bb Cln, Oboe (doubled) piccolo Flute higher div (doubled) Row 2: Bb Cln 2 Bb Cln 3 (doubled), B.Cln, Bsn 2, Bsn 1, Flt lower div (doubled) Row 3: Tpt 1, Cornet 1, horn 2, horn 1, bari sax, tenor sax, alto sax (doubled) Row 4: Tpt 2, Cornet 2, horn 4, horn 3, Tbn 1,2,3, Euph Row 4: Tpt 3, Flugelhorn 2, SD, Cym, BD, Tuba (upper div), Tuba (lower div) I used the Colin matthews edition mostly. I didn’t have an Eb clarinet or Bass sax, but everything else is there. I also used the trumpet/cornet/flugelhorn parts from the original but stretched them over 6 parts instead of 8.

@@samvanderwoude I wasn't aware that there were 2 flute parts- I wonder if maybe one was reworked by Colin Matthews from the Eb part?
@samvanderwoude Жыл бұрын
I think it was an octave divisi in a couple spots, much like the Tuba part. There are a couple spots where it goes very high (double C in blacksmith), so I assume Colin Matthews was probably making it more accessible to play by adding the lower octave.

Holst is my fav composer and I'm familiar with most of Holst's more famous works (i.e. Planets and Military Suites). But, I've never heard this one before and I'm delighted that you took the time to perform this and share it with us! I now have one more Holst piece to add to my playlist! Thanks for giving us a detailed history of why and when Holst wrote this, it's always interesting to read about the history/inspiration of a great piece of music!
