Jay Bocook is a genius.

1:43-1:55 is my absolute favorite melody in the entirety of The Firebird. Chromatic melodies are my favorite

should do the rite of spring

[@Bugleur]

After destroying the Rites of Spring, now you destroy the Firebird...

What’s wrong with this arrangment?

[@Bugleur]

Just the things to make a commercial arrangement from this masterpiece... Transposition, bad cut, simplification of the harmony... And there is a lot of composer for Band who deserve to be introduce by a great company like Hal Leonard...

[@Dualis58]

If you're gonna make a concert band arrangement of a professional level piece, dont make it garbage by dumbing it down to, like, grade d. Just make it grade AA(5) so it's not trash.

[@aryajeraled2769]

1. The orchestral hits are weak and too overpowered by the trumpets. The woodwind’s high notes are a defining factor of the hit. 2. Why does it fade out at some parts, turning a roughly 6 minute piece into a 4 minute one.

[@sfmdude568]

What I don't understand is how they're okay with uploading a 15-minute suite (Check Suite from Mass), yet they're unable to upload more than 1:28 of a 2:50 Arrangement (The Incredibles).
