Crescent Moon Dance orchestra w/ percussion ver. - Akito Matsuda

[@Alexdengmusic]

Performed and recorded by the Budapest Scoring Orchestra on February 7th 2023. Arranged and conducted by me. Go easy on these players! We had 45 minutes to learn this piece so they were basically sightreading. I've always wanted to conduct and hear this piece live so what better way than to arrange the piece for orchestra. Percussion is MIDI added in post.

Great to see an hibike fan conducting an orchestra

[@Alexdengmusic]

Just tryna be like Taki-sensei

[@ricepoodle]

I think everyone is much better than the first time. Really great performance! How about Liz and the Bluebird next?

[@Alexdengmusic]

You read my mind ;)

@@taniyama-bj2sc There will definitely be future recordings/performances. Stay tuned!

YEA YEA Do Liz And The Blue Bird

[@dbloese]

Are you still working on Liz and the blue bird?

[@axeldilvala641]

This is super well made, there is no way they only had 45 minutes to learn it

[@Alexdengmusic]

Thank you! Massive props to the players. Many professional studio orchestras are prolific sight readers and some of the best musicians globally! As long as your parts are clear to the players and the communication from the podium is effective, studio musicians can sight-read anything. Budapest is one of the top groups in Europe for studio orchestras, but you should see what Los Angeles studio musicians can do... they are the best of the best.

The fact that this only has 66 views is a crime

Love this

[@onizukaliebert7899]

wow this is really good, any hibike fan would really appreciate this. Is there a euphonium in this orchestra? Looking forward to future videos, keep it up!

[@Alexdengmusic]

Not yet! I had the cello do the euphonium part

[@onizukaliebert7899]

@@Alexdengmusic Sounded Great but seeing and hearing that eupho would be magnificent. Watched this video a few times already aha!

[@tyqiangz]

Insanely good for a 45min sight-reading session. The trombones could be louder though, couldn’t hear the sixteenth notes articulated clearly at 0:40 and 2:40.

[@Alexdengmusic]

I’ll eventually hire a mixing engineer so everyone can be heard

[@Alexdengmusic]

Trombones not being loud? must be the first ever documented case.. ;)

[@CateTenmatay]

This is amazing! What did the musicians think of the piece? Did you tell them where it's originally from? :) This is amazing work!

[@Alexdengmusic]

Studio musicians are very much there for the job. Their whole gig is to sightread it flawlessly then go home

[@andresmty9774]

Greetings, maestro. I am interested in the arrangement. Is there any way to obtain it? I would like to play it someday in the orchestra of which I am a member

[@Alexdengmusic]

feel free to email me for the score :) [e-mail]

[@RickMcGuireMusic]

Well done sir

[@Alexdengmusic]

You were literally physically there.

[@RickMcGuireMusic]

I was eating the free candy

[@pawan7684]

Where do you find all the sheet music for this?

[@Alexdengmusic]

I had the original wind ensemble score then arranged it for symphony orchestra!

[@tyqiangz]

@@Alexdengmusic very nice arrangement btw! I was pleasantly surprised to hear this piece adapted for the orchestra.

[@Alexdengmusic]

@@tyqiangz thank you! I hope to conduct this piece again either with wind ensemble or orchestra

[@AshtynBloese]

Who are all the musicians?

[@Alexdengmusic]

Budapest Scoring Orchestra!

[@AshtynBloese]

@@Alexdengmusic yes but what are their names?

[@Alexdengmusic]

@@AshtynBloese Couldn't tell you, their names are in Hungarian and I don't know any of them personally yet.

This is from an alternate universe where it’s about a cellist in a high school orchestra
