Jungle Dance - Brian Balmages

[@Alazizzy]

The low brass part at 1:17 is actually 🔥🔥 it fits so well with the horns having the melody.

[@TeeGee.]

As a baritone player, the last 30 measures are a certified fire moment Edit: it's been 2 years. Let this comment die

[@rahmar8228]

As another baritone player, I agree

[@connorenget573]

I’m euphonium and playing this

[@tripodpapaluigi8159]

As a tenor sax player I can agree (basically the same part)

[@erik_s3151]

As a trombone player, the whole song sucks (46 measures of rest total and basically all whole notes and a lot of repeated notes)

[@goobliegoop]

I play the flute and I always struggled to hold back a smile when they started playing the end it was always so good 💀

[@tinybean4249]

When my band director put the recording up of this song the whole class was so exited! Now whenever we get it out we all are so ready and exited to play

[@Powerpont]

This is one of the songs ever 🔥🔥🔥

[@huntermagnuson8062]

I played this in 7th grade at a regional band congregation in my county, revisiting as a freshman in college is so much fun. As a trumpet player, I lived for that melody!

I remember distinctly playing this during my band exam in high school and the person watching us perform this was so impressed by my rhythm that he said, "you keep her around. She has good rhythm". And my band director being so proud of me and by the end of this song I was so proud of myself. I was playing the bongos for this song

In middle school, I was assigned lead Aux for most songs. While we never played this to a crowed, easily my favorite memory from band then was when we had a sub and a student took the lead and we managed to get through this song with minimal errors. Thank you for posting this so I can relive those memories even after I quite band in my 12th grade year.
