This is the University of Texas. They are known for high level musicianship. The person playing the main melody line has a Doctorate in Tuba Performance! I would bet that half these guys are getting advanced degrees in their instruments. You would be hard pressed to find better.

James Matheson, Jr. yea but it’s also not like if they recorded this using a normal mic on a. Classroom, you can tell they added quite a bit of reverb to it and it was recorded in a pretty acoustic room. I’m not saying this was bad, it was really Good, it’s just not what it seems?

Imagine a film score where a majority of the film uses a symphony orchestra, but the most impactful moment of the film uses this exact arrangement. I would really love to hear that. And I've also got to represent euphonium. The euphonium is my favorite instrument to play. It is beautiful. I'd love to play in a euphonium/tuba ensemble. My goal as a composer is to give the euphonium a permanent spot in the symphony orchestra. There will be lots of amazing low brass parts, but truly beautiful euphonium parts.

The beauty of our instruments. This is one of the few songs that can really showcase how deep and beautiful the low brass can sound. It seems like the low brass never gets the melody. The wood wind instruments sound light and soft like a fairy, and it is beautiful there’s no denying that,but the Richness and smooth dark metallic sound that a tuba or a euphonium has is a different type of beauty.💖🎼📣

Dang. If the tuba euphonium ensemble in my college played like this, I may have actually enjoyed sitting through all those concerts. Definitely beautiful instruments, but often terribly misused/underused. Our tuba/euphonium ensemble always played arrangements that were voiced poorly for the low register, rarely making use of the upper range of either instrument, resulting in what sounds like a bunch of non-pitched rhythmic ‘farts’ much of the time. It’s a shame that was my first/only exposure to the ensemble for years. Anyone else experience this with collegiate tuba/euphonium ensembles?

If a player masters or spends considerable time on their low range on a euphonium or tuba, it doesn't sound bad or like 'farts' at all. It can actually sound quite beautiful :) I think there might have been a misunderstanding of what style of play is required for each part of the instruments' registers.

It really depends on how you play the horn in its respective registers you may have a B flat tubist play the really dark deep low tones that bring this piece to life. And then have say an F or an E tubist Master the higher range on the horn and then you’ll have something cooking and may not even need the Euphonium if played to perfection the Tuba can do everything the Euphonium can but better I played Tuba so I may be biased😂 but it’s a melodic nature the “farts” you stated may be from the player themselves making mistakes and not having a proper foundation on how the instrument can be manipulated in the lower register this is definitely a Legato piece which are my personal favorite

I’m super late, but as a trumpet major in college I see it go both ways. Euphonium is an incredibly beautiful instrument that can bring so many different colors, but I’ve seen that here in Texas at least among younger players, the kind of blasty or “farty” marching band tends to be very common. I think it’s very important that younger low brass players are exposed to all the different uses of their instruments and how to play more than just simple bass lines. Love your channel btw Erik!!

Absolutely beautiful - as a tuba major at Michigan State in the late 70's, I had the privilege of studying with Leonard Falcone. I can see him smiling down from Heaven after hearing this. I found the empty seats in the auditorium chilling - Music will help us get through this awful time.

My brother Russ played the tuba. I remember him playing with the highschool band. He was so handsome and strong. Now I am an old man, and I see him still; Making music, young and his whole life ahead, just around the corner. Miss you so. See you soon. Love you always.

I want to be on that level of tuba playing where you can just playing so meaningful without even trying. We never play any songs like this in my band so I do this on my free time but I struggle with be able to be completely meaningful in my playing

When you get good enough, it SOUNDS like you're not even trying, but trust me, they're trying very, very hard. When you play enough, some things do become second nature, but that just means you devote your mind to other parts of playing and the music. These guys are extremely focused while playing this. It never becomes easy to play at the level these guys are.
