NHK Symphony Orchestra Wind Section

I have been looking for the score of this for so long, I played it an an honor band and it has remained my favorite concert band piece i have ever played. It was an honor band and I was covering all of the mallet parts myself. Very scary but it's a great piece.

I love the hell out of Samuel Hazo (and Arabesque is easily his best!) but nothing compares to Alfred Reed!

[@NMC21887]

I played this piece with a municipal band years ago. The conductor of this group yelled with passion during rehearsal that our goal was to inspire a couple in the audience to make a baby after hearing the band play this piece. It’s unclear to this day if we were successful.

[@j_santiagoperez2006]

Just assume y'all were successful

I played this in 1995/98 at the university of Miami all county honors band. My favorite!

[@brianscotpatterson2101]

Honey, the word is CONTRAPUNTAL! The back half of this is a demonstration in contrapuntal melody and just a straight banger. Commissioned and written for the United State Air Force band. You know there was 0% goofing off at the premiering 1985.

[@rebelynescobar]

one of my favorite piece..new friend here

[@varnk]

Would love to play this someday! What a great piece! I've been suggesting it for years for our college community band to play it, but so far the director hasn't programmed it yet.

[@sidemann8593]

Amazing!

This price makes me a happy horn player

大学の定期演奏会で音楽家の先生の指揮で吹いたことあるのに、 230小節目からの旋律群の動き以外、譜面見てもこんなことやってたっけ？ と浦島太郎状態だった（トロンボーン3）記憶喪失かも

based Reed

[@aliciadalbey1201]

Hounds is better methinks. While I like some of the individual themes more in this, hounds has a much more compelling back half with the canon that turns into that beautiful climax. Also the lyrical section is more contained in Hounds. I'm only saying this because I see these two pieces as peas in a pod.

[@AndewMole]

I'll make a video of Hounds one day!

[@sierrameriedethmusic]

They both sound so Reed to me. For example 6:30 - 6:45 gives the same feel as part of Hounds. I love Reed's work Edit: see the measures leading up to 135 of The Hounds of Spring, with the hit at 135. IDENTICAL if you ask me

I am currently playing this on 2nd Clarinet as a Freshman with not a lot of experience with this stuff. Help me.

Very little of this is "Latin". A better title would have been "Spanish Fantasy".

[@XxiiixX]
