Performance Notes:
Elgar composed his fourteen “Variations on an Original Theme,” now commonly known as “Enigma Variations,” during 1898-99. He later wrote regarding his inspiration for the piece that it was a series of “sketches of the composer’s friends.” While the entire work is among the stalwarts of the orchestral repertoire, the Adagio variation became especially well-loved having been performed often at funerals and solemn occasions. “Nimrod” references the Biblical figure, who was a “mighty hunter,” and Elgar’s close friend, Augustus J. Jaeger, whose German last name translates to “hunter.” Once, when the composer had become extremely frustrated and ready to give up his efforts as a composer, Jaeger persuaded him to continue his work.

In my high-school band we played this and every time I'd fall asleep while waiting to come in, I was a 2nd trombone and we didn't come in till the middle. Fun times lol

[@ellenpcwang]

Getting my band ensemble (Philadelphia Freedom band) to play this as brass ensemble.

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Sounds like a good idea to me!

[@jaronwakley8885]

Beautiful arrangement! It was fun to have so many parts included. Also very well played!

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Thanks, on all counts!

[@jeroenodb]

Beautiful! Also funny to see the different shades of red of the cornet player. :)

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Thank you. And…no comment.

[@alexineraineri121]

Excellent musicianship.

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Thanks. We try our best.

[@craigbritton3213]

Fabulous. All around.

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Thanks. We give our best effort!

[@jamesbrown3358]

Wonderful way to greet the morning. Thank you!

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nyancs7098]

Great playing!

[@Matonizz]

Thank you nyancs!

[@jasonvenesky2438]

Perfect for brass

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

I think it works great. It was also one of the toughest things I ever recorded. Those phrases are long! Hard to keep them “alive.”

[@twiiii1]

Very well done. I really enjoyed the performance.

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Thanks.

[@ItsAngel.X]

Hi! Can you do a section in wich you do reviews of some mouthpieces? Nice video!

[@sandramrotek9100]

As always I LOVED it. All of you together are so beautiful and the arrangements are perfect. I will listen to it often. Thank you.

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Thanks, Sandra.

[@lotsabirds]

Wonderful arrangement! I'm used to hearing strings in an orchestra or flutes and woodwinds in a band setting. This brass arrangement is filled with good goosebump moments! Genius! I want to hear a sub-bass part in my head...like 32' organ pipes! This is simply phenomenal!

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

Thanks. I tried to keep the tuba pretty low. Almost wanted to add another player. Did that with my setting of Percy Grainger’s “Irish Tune.” Worked nicely, but it was kind of cheating.

[@lotsabirds]

@@TheMusicofDrewFennell It's all great music! I always look forward to hearing more!

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

@@lotsabirds, thank you. We'll keep at it. It's a torrid pace right now.

[@lotsabirds]

@@TheMusicofDrewFennell I don't know how you keep the pace that you do! Amazing job!

[@TheMusicofDrewFennell]

@@lotsabirds, we have a good team, for sure. Thanks.

[@Shinku0_0]

What mouthpiece do you use matonizz I have been looking for a new mouthpiece and after watching your videos for a long time seeing you can hit both high and low range I want to see if it's something I might like
