A Salute to Sousa - Canadian Brass

[@raptor888x]

the two greatest things: 1) john philip sousa 2) the canadian brass how could this video be any better!?

[@trapezemusic]

The selections: Semper Fidelis, Manhattan Beach, Liberty Bell, Hands Across the Sea, US Field Artillery, Stars and Stripes Forever. Fine musicians.

[@samtuttle95]

Chuck Daellenbach: One of the few players articulate enough in the upper register to play the Piccolo solo from Stars and Stripes Forever on Tuba.

[@frozenfeet4534]

+Sam Tuttle it _was_ many octaves lower...

[@zacgilbertson182]

+Garen Crownguard ye still awesome tho

[@samtuttle95]

+Garen Crownguard actually, relative to where the solo lays on the piccolo, it was in the same relative register on the Tuba. Not in terms of absolute octaves, but middle of piccolo vs. middle of Tuba. Obviously, he'd be a God if he could play it where written, but still very skilled.

[@doniedodo5690]

BRASS RULES!!!

[@stephaniecurry45]

Jason don’t question a man who’s profile pic has him holding a tuba

[@annaspaulding2533]

Love it. Made me think high school marching in west Liberty, Ohio, playing clarinet

[@bitsywillmott6881]

Thank you for sharing Sousa music. My high school band director, Major James O'Neal, had been in Sousa's band. Many former Sousa band members led Florida bands and we exchanged visits. Fillmore, Major's good friend, visited often - he was active with University of Miami's band, where my husband played trombone. Oh, the stories of yesterday. We salute you!

[@kendebusk2540]

Outstanding! As a former trombone player (mid 60s through mid 70s including a stint in the AF Band), I really enjoy a nice brass arrangement. This paid off in spades :)

[@andrewbertrand4316]

That percussionist is the cymbal of musicianship.

[@sheilahperry-rosales8748]

Brings back marching band and concert band memories.Mr.Erickson was a big fan.

[@margaretromaine5083]

The sound on my blue “ speaker “: !! Makes the best sound , just great for to hear and REALLY enjoy !!!!!! thanks!!!!

[@lindawatkin4411]

I went to school immediately after the second world war.We were very patriotic and had a Sousa March every a.m.I still enjoy them and am still patriotic.

[@scottishhellcat8959]

That had to be wonderful to hear Souza every day. I started school in 1959. I still remember my music teacher. I used to perform in bands that did a lot of patriotic music. I loved it.

[@tish1844]

Linda Watkin ❤️❤️❤️

[@MauricioJePalma]

Awesome tuba-piccolo solo!

[@SoundzRite]

This is a Concert Band folks and John Phillip used to to tour with a concert band. I'll bet he twisted all the favorites just like this and I'll bet he would be tickled with this collection. I know I was!

[@noyawright2040]

I wish they had a list of all the songs they played. It's hard to keep up. LOL

[@trapezemusic]

The selections are: Semper Fidelis, Manhattan Beach, Liberty Bell, Hands Across the Street, US Field Artillery, Stars and Stripes Forever. Enjoy.

[@Baridan]

A salute to Sousa and nary a sousaphone in the production!!

[@A.Visschermusic]

Because susaphones Suck!

[@thadeuj.silvafilho3067]

3:14 and 5:24 Charles Schlueter and his Mini King Liberty! Rare trumpet. Unique trumpet player. Superb. And what a group!

[@normancharles7953]

Canadian Brass, as usual they are top notch...

[@ttgnaj]

Good to see David Ohanian. I worked for his father in Westport back in the ‘60’s.

[@luiscobos21]

Expected a Sousaphone to be played

[@woodrowelmore2521]

I've been to many concerts nd it seems that Sousaphones are not used in a concert band. It is funny to do a tribute to him without hearing a Sousaphone. I thank the poster for thsi video - very entertaining.

[@trombone113]

@@woodrowelmore2521 A sousaphone is only a tuba that has had it's tubing rerouted so that it can be worn and played while marching. Incidentally, military bands in the UK do not use sousaphones at all, preferring instead to march with a full size tuba. Silly I think because it is much more difficult and directs their sound to the side instead of to the front. But as you heard, a tuba is fine in a concert setting on stage.

''BEAUTIFUL'' John Philip Sousa Marches!!

OUT STANDING! :-)

[@jpaufsc]

Ahhh good old Semper Fidelis.

[@alephomega386]

so many mullets

[@wrongreasly3201]

Eugene from Walking Dead has a mullet.

[@Laura-6887]

When I saw this and started listening to the music, I said, this is cool. I have this music on a audio cassette tape. The audio cassette tape is "Red, White and Brass". . Glad you posted a video to this music.. Thank you.

[@Overtake1]

Laura Cramer, I'm Gene Watts' son, and I thank you for being a fan!

[@ApolyonTheSoulRender]

@raptor888x Them with the principal brass from the New York Philharmonic AND the Boston Symphony! :D

[@Psilva598]

Vibrante,maravilhosa apresentação,bravo!!

[@ApolyonTheSoulRender]

This seems like a pretty marchable tempo I think any level of marching band can handle. Unless you're marching with bassoons or something crazy like that, you can march pretty much any tempo with corps style marching technique which is pretty common in the states at least.

[@denizardfreitas]

They're Forever!!!

[@medievalmusiclover]

Good job Canadian Brass You are excelent!!!

[@kitandamodamatosinhos]

Grande compositor e grande conjunto de sopros.

[@tornadogeekjohnson5385]

[@BerlinBo]

Fve dislikes? All woodwinds?

[@1stPCFerret]

BerlinBo And one violin.

[@adamschweyer4227]

BerlinBo it's because of the Stars and Stripes piccolo solo

[@wrongreasly3201]

24 dislikes... hmmm

[@ritadorst1657]

Ignore dislikes, nobody's perfect!

[@smischke1]

This woodwind loves them. And this is an amazing arrangement of Sousa!

[@bennyjazzful]

I agree 100%

[@fredgreene2903]

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@DiplNiesbert]

Tolle Nummer!

[@andre_forni]

Canadian Brass..the best.

[@monteirolotif7484]

Excelente Dobrado.

[@Pandolin11]

Trombones and baritones are interchangeable, so it wouldn't surprise me if Gene played baritone for some pieces.

[@Overtake1]

Gannon Craig, he used to! I'm his eldest son, Kevin, and his practicing at the house, and for some pieces, he played the euphonium!

[@woutervanhoof1169]

@@Overtake1 take a look at the original Canadian Brass Canon from Pachelbel up on CB KZbin and you can see him do so :-)

[@VikingBiking1946]

I'm a low brass player (euphonium), but on this piece, I think I'd rather watch the percussionists. Now off to practice :D

[@cheeseburger4083]

I'm here

[@domepiece11]

I'm a bit surprised by the C trumpets. Why not use Bb cornets?

[@Billie1982Jean1]

list of songs in order please

[@BrianRobertsfan]

They made a collection of best Sousa songs... AND DIDN'T INCLUDE BLACK HORSE TROOP?!

[@Madeinchinaagain]

1:00. Welcome.

[@Thedearster]

Who is the conductor??

[@benRandomProductions]

Cut time. Cut time people.

[@luvbach1]

Sousa is from North America according to the Canadian spokesman. Of course he's right.

[@bdsouleful]

Piccolo trumpets are very under appreciated.

[@ApolyonTheSoulRender]

I don't think that's even necessary. I've even seen many good bands and corps with field shows that have players running and playing at the same.

[@cenotosa1]

lol at worked oot at 0:12

[@Composer_Piggy]

Song at 4:32 and 7:38?

[@castornieto2194]

But the result sounds good...i mean

Lucas Oliveira That's still part of Stars and Stripes Forever.

Left handed tuba player at 2:28

B. Nutter, I think he’s adjusting one of his tuning slides.

[@castornieto2194]

Ridiculous trumpets for these great and very beautiful themes

[@cinthiabruno]

Marcio domene

[@SpeedyNeutrino43]

If you want to hear a VERY good marching band, find Mt. Carmel High School band playing "Barnum and Bailey's Favorite". Their director sensibly slowed it down until it was a good march tempo...AND everybody was playing their parts. No, they're not The Canadian Brass but it's a fine example of how a march can be slowed down until it's managable by the people you have.

[@jewboy11505]

@canadianbrass no no, that's what (in my opinion) could make it better....or at least more theatrical :P

[@WCM1945]

You start with a computerized, servo driven left hand...

[@Qtownbrown]

1:00

[@Javitomanzano]

You forgot Monty Python.

[@runefoonman4103]

Javitomanzano, you mean the Liberty Bell March?

[@Skaman_1978]

Your doing souza marches, WHY ARE THEY USING CONCERT SNARES!!! that bugs me to no end, when a group says they are going to marches and use concert snares. And don't they go above forte? I mean come on, you need ff just to make it sound right.

[@NRGearz]

Conductor: Prof. Flitwik Tuba 2: Hitler

[@bgrobin66]

I have never understood why conductors and/or musical organizations play a march at a tempo no marching organization could possibly march to. It's akin to play a concerto or other concert piece to a march tempo. It is musically wrong as wrong can be. I guess it is supposed to present a situation where the musicians can show off a little. I can assure you the Canadian Brass has no need of that, as they set the standard for brass ensembles the world over.
