I last played this piece in 1989 at Morehead State University's Band Festival. The honor band was conducted by Dr. Harry Begian - the man that commissioned this work with Alfred Reed as a memorial of his father and his childhood in Armenia. Needless to say, the tempo was about twice as fast in most places throughout his interpretation. No mercy at all on a bunch of high school musicians, especially the tuba section during the last portion of this piece. Wow!

Clarinets had to do so so many scales just to be covered over by trombones. I found that flutes get melody and clarinets get to do trills and scales. But it was a fun piece. Equal to all parts really.

I had the pleasure in enjoying this piece alongside my peers at my High School concert last week. We were terrified the first time it was handed out to each section, but we ate it all up in approximately three months of preparation. Until now, the intricate sounds of every instrument conjoined into mutiple melodies make me tear up. I wish to play this once more in college.
