G. Schirmer Concert Band - Grade 4
According to legend, Tolenas Springs, in Solano County, CA was once known as “The Land of the Healing Waters” due to the restorative powers of the water. This beautiful descriptive work begins with a slow, lyrical melody reminiscent of the flowing water, followed with the music evolving into a faster, heroic theme stated by the brass. The piece culminates in a riveting conclusion suggesting the healing waters washing over us.
Recorded by Central Winds (NY) - Andrew Perry, conductor

the way i see his music is that he is telling the story of a journey that spans across multiple pieces and the reason each piece sounds like one another is because we are following the main character in each piece

[@plainki2174]

beautiful horn parts, woodwind runs, powerful low brass moments, trumpet and horn melodies. or in other words, a galante piece

[@CHRIS10812]

I was one of the first people to play this song. He made it for our county honor band and he even conducted it. What a legendary piece and a legendary man!!

[@casshha]

[@CHRIS10812]

C D honestly same. What school did you play for?

Now, THIS is what a great concert band score should sound like. Like very epic movie soundtrack.

[@TheGymSavant]

Yes, that’s definitely a Galante piece...

[@blobcookie]

Difficult, but so amazingly beautiful

[@Srgfowler]

You say that as it's a bad thing lol.

[@labonnemedia]

Wonderful piece, I love Rossano's style. The community band I play with commissioned a piece for our 35th anniversary concert, it was great!

[@gingerstover3257]

Love this piece

[@luizfernandesneto2494]

Mais uma belíssima obra, desta vez com uma inspiração Edvard Grieg "morning" 👏👏👏👏 Parabéns!!!

[@kawingng1600]

It is Galante style indeed... Also there's a part of Mt. Everest included?? And so on, oboes and tubas are crying...

[@awildfilingcabinet6239]

I can hear the Everest parts in there, starting around 2:25. He never ends the phrase as he does in Everest but I can hear it. Although with Galante everything sounds the same. Lyrical and horn solis

[@Wig-po5nb]

I hear a little bit of Avengers and Star Wars... Specifcally I heard the Avengers theme from age of ultron and twin suns from starwars(or the force theme)

[@brandonrosario2931]

4:07 sounds like starwars !

[@jeremysullivan1383]

It's the same exact chords lmao i heard it too

[@cacawsthelaw]

This song is so badass. Playing it in high school.

[@calebjackson5678]

That woodwind triplet stuff and sixteenth note patterns seems like it was reused from Red Rock Mountain and Mt. Everest 😂 Seems like a staple for Galante

[@evanm225]

I wish I had the opportunity to play the first trombone part on this.

[@obinnanwakwue5735]

hold up two TUBA parts? also I'm getting some Mt. Everest vibes...

[@masontrent3287]

Yeah that’s Galante for sure.

[@claytonsloan10]

More Galante!!

[@berkeleythomas7579]

🥰galante

[@fatcontroller12]

I got the skype and talk to the dude so I mean... 😁 can't complain about his music.

[@awildfilingcabinet6239]

Isn’t that motif dah da d da dah that comes in at 2:25 from Mt. Everest? Not that I’m complaining. That’s probably my favorite piece I’ve ever played

[@tylercoughranmusic]

Well I know 2:14 is Mt. Everest in a minor key.

[@paradoxskiis2245]

Oooo

[@KerloTech]

Dat Ending doe for the FHorns and Saxes . . .O_o

[@mattiehendrikx6998]

👍 x1000

[@TheodoreBrown314]

Amazing song, but RIP to the mallets player. I can hear that they were a little bit out of time, and I can relate (having have been that person at the most inopportune of times myself)

[@martin-paulbeaulieu4060]

Pretty good pièce .... Its sound a bit like a vidéo game pièce (warcraft)

[@lowellbassi3597]

This definitely reminds me of Lord of the Rings!!
