I like the arpeggios at 3:55

you payed for the whole alto sax, you are going to use the whole alto sax.

My friend said no to playing this at Solo and ensemble :(

Nice, cool bass parts

This is like DragonForce and Dream Theater had a child, but in a sax quartet

🔥🔥🔥

First one here and peak shit bro

I love watching people tap their feet and then give up when they realize they're out of time

Love it! Did a lot of arranging for trombone choir in college (1970s). Only had one piece I really liked. Our trombone professor was also quite the arranger (any configuration of instruments). He taught instrumentation and arranging as well. He taught us never to use an interval of less than a 4th, below 2nd space C in the bass clef...said it was too muddy sounding. However, these days I see/hear this "rule" broken all the time (this piece being one of them). Maybe my arrangements would have been better if I had ignored this rule. Nevertheless, I did quite a few arrangement for concert/symphonic band that were good (I was pleased with them). So it worked out in the end. However, I would see it hard-pressed for him to criticize this arrangement. Might also add that I always thought a small tuba was great with a trombone choir. Chuck Morris of the Albany Symphony changed my mind about that in recent years. Go contrabass trombone! Great work!. Glad I listened!

This sounds like a piece of music Vandegrift would use in their marching shows

The Bari part for this song is AMAZING! That second movement is epic! Slap tonguing gets real lol. Can’t wait to learn it ❤

You should make a sextet score !!

Chris . . . Soooo Im a freshman in highschool. AND Im in a quartet that is playing this piece for next year lol

The double tounging on the soprano was just a chefs kiss

Hi great piece of music!! I'm wondering where can I purchase it now? As I tried the links you've given but there isn't a purchase option? And there's an error on imbrassworks when I opened the link.

star wars

My life is so much better for having heard this. Thank you so much @cehass11!

For real, it’s a banger piece thought and I love playing every second of it

This piece is truly phenomenal I’m so exited to play this quartet at my pinckneyville middle school cluster concert

Just bought this for solo and assemble about a month ago

This is fire. Wish I was good enough to play it. Continue the good work

Texas musicians 🔛 🔝

Disregard: this comment is so I can practice 0:38 bar 15 1:08 C 1:35 D 1:50 41 2:17 F (bar 51)

Absolute banger of a piece I love practicing this

I love noteperformer sounds!! (sarcasm) but it still sounds amazing! Can't wait to see this come out! Alto sax and mixed meters always go well together

Hey me and my quartet are playing this in a couple months

I had my headphones on full blast. So worth it. Both bass bones pedals are luxurious

Bouta force my friends to play this with me

I hope you know that you are such an inspiration to me, and I adore listening to each new score you release. You are so amazing 🫶🏻

The alto part looks like what they would put for my region etude

Wow the soprano😱

Do you ever something that stays in 4/4? 😭

wheres the tenor :(

Woah. I didn't know there was a concert band arrangement of it!!

i bet this would sound just as great in a string orchestra or full orchestra

Nice song!

always wanted to learn this but damn does the solo get hard at the end

This sounds like a villain theme, but it could be from like 5 different things I can't quite remember the names of. Still, really good 👍

Trombone 5 for most of the piece: 🧍‍♂️

Hey there, is it possible I could get the sheet music for this? Or a PDF to print it out. Im currently a trombone player in HS and the other players in my section would love to do this as a trombone choir/ chamber group.

This is awesome bro

Great piece!!

I agree

Overall, a very interesting and well voiced piece. I have doubts about it becoming a mainstay to the literature. There are some fine moments of ensemble writing, but there are moments of confused connection despite the wonderful playing. I loved the connections to the multiple references (quotes, as jazzers reference to them), but the development seemed to wander beyond listenable restraints. Sound is one thing, but connection to a listener’s attention becomes paramount, whether it be Mozart, Verdi, Copland, Gershwin, and yes, Ives! Great effort, but if interested, I’d consider further editing. Hope I didn’t offend anyone. I’m simply expressing my initial take on the audio.

After leaving the band, I haven't had many excuses to play my sax again. Looks like I finally have one!

I really like it! this is one of my favorite quartets I've ever heard.👏👏

Where can I find the rest of the band recording?

where can I find the full score for this? I didn't see it on your channel or your website?

Chef’s kiss my man
