Boosey & Hawkes Concert Band - Grade 3
This classic work for young bands has stood the test of time and continues to appear on many state required lists. Based on three American folk songs (The Promised Land, Cindy and I'm Sad and I'm Lonely) it works just well for programming on lighter concerts as it does for contests and festivals. A trusted favorite.

[@boyskylark6555]

Same tho and Sammy Thackeray, yes my band is like that too

[@maciemullin7224]

thats literally what i said when i first saw this piece lol

[@strawbrrydrops]

I played 3rd clarinet for this piece. Although I was sad getting the 3rd part, I grew to love playing this song, especially in the “I’m Sad and Lonely” part. It’s so beautiful and fun to play!! update: i made this comment in my freshman year of high school, i’m a freshman in college now but my band got to play this for my last concert of high school! i ended up playing the same part but in a different ensemble 😭

[@mely7873]

Army uwu I play clarinet too but 2 clarinet

[@jessieee8348]

[@thelegocat9659]

I have 3rd clarinet now. I love it so much. I usually play 1st but our 3rds were struggling. Not lucky this year ;-;

[@yoonjins_sweetiepie]

I remember my band trying to perfect this for a concert or a festival and my band director getting so frustrated over our little mistakes that he ended up scrapping it and having us only play it as a warm-up piece lol. The good times of concert band

[@yourbelovedstoryteller7757]

That's literally our instructor in a nut shell he always wants perfection

[@yoonjins_sweetiepie]

@@yourbelovedstoryteller7757 seriously though my band director would get so amazed when we would get something right first try because we’d always make at least ONE mistake

[@stevenjohnson5641]

Played this my 10th grade year (1991-92 school year) for the Georgia Musi Educators Association Festival and Contest. You can hear the judge on the tape saying (at the end) "Baritone, you are speeding up!! Baritone, you are getting out of hand!!" That Baritone...was me!!!

[@beakerthebeaver581]

Samantha Clock trumpet loud as heck, every time I go to the practice room I kick the trumpets out cause I can’t hear my instrument. Flute

[@finedwine]

@Psychic Mage God I'm a trumpet but I know when to be quiet when others need it

[@beakerthebeaver581]

SovietPudding yes, I know some people can have control. But a trumpet’s low note is really high still so even if you try to play soft it’s not possible for some people. The only way some less loud instruments can be heard is if the trumpets have a mute or they play the note incorrectly.

[@finedwine]

@@beakerthebeaver581 I usually just don't play or have practiced before hand, since I am first trumpet I usually ask the other trumpets to be quiet also. Sometimes I will use a mute if everyone is done tuning already.

[@Peacemaker9299]

Played percussion for this back in middle school and was so happy to finally find this piece after all these years

[@CherryFreckles02]

I love this piece! We are playing it for MPA in a few months and I’m playing the first clarinet part. I thought this piece was interesting because it’s three different pieces of music with three different styles and the tempo never changes! Well there is a retardando at the end, but besides that i thought it was super cool how the piece stayed consistent with the tempo. Great job Clare ❤️
