[@sethebrown]

Thank you for playing my piece Christopher! It was an absolutely incredible performance. Congratulations to all the other winners as well.

[@kennethschechter7087]

Ur a God....love every second of ur piece.

[@friendlyneighborhoodskinwalker]

Absolute musical unit

[@colinakers7570]

My goodness that was amazing. Keep up the great work!

[@thattromboneguy317]

it was so good. keep it up, man!

[@tacoflinger2874]

Absolutely loved it!

[@samvholt]

Getting some Batman feels from this one. Quality stuff!

[@dokowhere]

Ikr. I was about to say that then i saw this.

[@brucewayne0001]

Me too.

[@tylerrose774]

BRUHHH. straight up felt like I was in lego batman

[@sethebrown]

I went back and looked up the Batman theme cause I had never heard it before. I can see the similarity especially in the beginning. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@michaelhernandez8342]

Sameeeee

[@christinegallo4983]

**pause in the music** *all the little Christopher Bills fix their glasses and hair*

[@TheMrAshley2010]

I could totally imagine this being played by 100 brass players. With Chris's DCI connections maybe an arrangement of this will end up being played by the Cavaliers or Blue Coats or some such.

[@sethebrown]

Aww man I wish!

[@TheMrAshley2010]

+

[@flame_viperyt7023]

Maybe Genesis

[@esfunkytown9926]

I feel like this could be a good piece for DCI to use in a show. For like a the third part or a second part of a show. It's a real amazing composition and can't wait to hear the next two compositions.

[@kennethschechter7087]

Honestly

[@TheMrAshley2010]

[@komcclennon]

Strong superhero movie vibes from this one!

[@Phunkophil]

Sounds more like a pokemon fighting or even gym leader theme, but it definitely has that epic, confrontational feel about it.

[@aidanyelsma7762]

It kid of sounds like Batman the Animated Series.

[@Phunkophil]

Aidan Yelsma True the intro with the held out chords sounds a bit like that.

[@kennethschechter7087]

Direct influence from batman 89

[@aidanyelsma7762]

This sounds like the theme song of Batman the Animated Series.

[@kennethschechter7087]

Yeah it's from batman 89

[@GhostFireGamingSubscribe]

Dude so let me tell you how you helped me as a player and as a musician. Before I started watching your videos ( probably around 9th grade year ) - I was a ok player. Tone was eh, I didn’t care about how I sounded or if I was playing correctly. Second to last chair. I remember watching some video about how to increase range because I was bored. Once I heard your sound, how confident you were about what you did, I tried to replicate that, and I soon fell in love with the trombone. Over the course a year, I was able to have incredible sound ( been told I have incredible sound and tone ) and since this all happened- I have been able to make progress. As I’m now in my senior year of high school, I stride to be first chair. Thank you for your encouragement. It changed my band career.

[@arthaabeysinghe257]

Wow if that was only 3rd place I wonder how good the top two were! Love the video keep up the good work!

[@trevors3908]

He has videos uploaded of him playing the top two! I recommend checking them out

[@Aperson-gt9xd]

What Hi There said

[@sethebrown]

The other two winners were incredible! Totally check them out.

[@Aperson-gt9xd]

Seth E. Brown your piece sounds so much better than my entry this year it's depressing

[@gabe5120]

Holy bass trombones

[@johns3106]

From 3:00 on this has a great, old school drum and bugle corps sound to it. Could totally see c.1980's Blue Devils playing this. To me, it has a similar feel to "La Fiesta".

[@lavenderw7617]

Great video Chris I’m so happy I’m one of your Patrons

[@B66pics]

I love that build at 2:49

[@StephanieDouglassMusic]

WOW, that really packs a punch. Congrats to Seth E. Brown for a wonderful composition! I was at the edge of my seat.

[@aryndavies5486]

i love you christopher bill ur so talented this is my favorite piece ever because of you

[@braedenames989]

2017 has some of my favorite compositions! This is great. Very excited for this year!

[@aaronorfanos6096]

Bro, my band teacher, John A. Matthews Ii, taught this composer. We're playing one of his pieces right now

[@jnsk1a2b3c]

Aw man love that double harmonic major near the end 😄

[@cameronplaystrumpet6777]

I'm almost done with my entry! Going back and forth on some things, but I'm really excited!

[@agentsmith5240]

I love your vids. I play trombone too, and im in 8th grade. You are the best trombone player I have ever seen😁😁

[@TheStickyKey]

You should look up Joe Alessi, Christian lindburg, Ian bousfield those are some good ones too

[@sGSdYgsdGA8fSWrRb2uzpMzzt2ys90]

you should also look up bill watrous, carl fontana, and bob mcchesney

[@DCombs_00Bass]

Don't forget Brian Hecht, and George Curran. There are so many good ones

[@sGSdYgsdGA8fSWrRb2uzpMzzt2ys90]

and wycliffe gordon

[@ludovicozambonin7663]

Awesome. Congrats to Seth.

[@NattyKingEthan]

Low key, I think this is the best composition

[@guilhermesilvadecamargo8553]

I was very keen to see this piece being performed by a symphonic band. It is well in style.

[@omaroliblish]

I love it when you play competition pieces and we can hear peoples work. Thanks. This one is fun to listen to plus nice for people who can play technical parts.

[@ANONYMOUS96536]

This needs to finds its way into a dci show.

[@TomW2034]

I thought he should have won with this piece. But I am thrilled he prevailed this year.

[@БелыйСтраж-ь9с]

Прекрасно! Человек-оркестр. Успехов в творчестве, man band! :)

[@AustinAli]

Listened multiple times! Well done Seth and Chris.

[@ALex4815162342]

[@akaLumenn]

[@MusicNerd2014]

MARCHING BAND IDEA!!!! 😍

[@maxtsiao8981]

I play trombone, and you rly inspire me. Also the music was great.

[@jasonh7330]

This is amazing!! Sounds like something in a superhero trailer

[@jasonh7330]

Also where can I buy this arrangement?

[@FanTrombone]

Excellent work - Performance and composition!!

[@kbrad125]

That was amazing

[@ricardorodriguez1207]

I play trombone too, but you're The best of the best, I love it

[@NFSundrgrnd]

This was even more lit!

[@soliddougie3874]

This sounds like it would make a really good cavaliers show

[@jerbungo9797]

Fantastic

[@mustangfury74]

Funny enough, I get the Final Fantasy feels from this piece. Nice work!

[@chips7023]

Great!

[@leoncioviolin]

Bonita composición e interpretación.

[@kevinmuntoni1060]

It's fantastic

[@goldenguardian4407]

This is great

[@buffintl]

That intro though... Feels like Batman The Animated Series!!!

[@adenesbarbosabatista3563]

Você é uma inspiração 🙏continue assim vídeos muito bons e que som mais maravilhoso

[@benitogonzales573]

Sounds like it should be the soundtrack of the movie belonging to the poster next to the trombones.

[@ludovicozambonin7663]

It's the poster of his album "Half-Man Half-Machine"

[@nicolaslinopereira677]

Probably because sounds like batman's theme song, I think

[@alexandresilveiraventura4397]

Very nice

[@mrwizzardknight]

AWESOME! 😃😃😃👏👏👏👏

[@bonespiel]

The 3rd place piece is far better than the first in my opinion

[@thenatundi9009]

8 bass bones!! Nice

[@thenatundi9009]

I see the bananas!!

[@trexkiller3904]

Wow!

[@Cmano-pk4dl]

That's crazy

[@harpothekidrs3282]

This screams to be written for drum corps.

[@markus-ji5wz]

Very nice Video👌

[@alfredagatucci2674]

Very good...what's with the new tenor?

[@andrewwones1637]

I feel the same. Clean shave for a clean sound 😉

[@bobok2278]

Holy

[@bobok2278]

3:00 sounds like something from rayman legends

[@robb3652]

Awesome awesome. Boo to the jerk who did thumbs down.

[@antoniogomes3676]

muito maneiro cara.good d #

[@musicmadness8025]

how dose he do those fast notes. i am a trombone player as well and let me tell you that is no easy feat

[@transitive2264]

Batman 1989 anyone XD

[@braedenames989]

When I submit, is there a way I can send the Finale file? Or should I just send the PDFs and MP3s? Thanks!

[@jasonh7330]

Braeden Ames just PDFs and MP3s

[@Cmano-pk4dl]

My name chris too that's crazy

[@rossmoore4183]

Did I hear anarchy 😭😭R.I.P. anarchy acres 😭😭

[@Iris_D_Xebec]

Hey, Christopher! I was listening to your video game symphonies for what was probably around the hundredth time, and i had the idea to arrange those pieces for a band, and play it for recital at ECU in a year or so. would i have your permission to do that?

[@joshuaparkhill9356]

just saying that this piece completely rips the intro from escape velocity by martin cordner a piece for brass band

[@gabrielleite5325]

Congratulations, what is the name of the video editor software?

[@agentsmith5240]

You should do seven nation army

[@thebeginning.]

Any advice on how to play a really low note but still with a good sound?

[@rorypeters8710]

FukYoNoScope play bass bone lol

[@thebeginning.]

Lol true but I like playing high and low notes

[@rorypeters8710]

FukYoNoScope well an actual tip is just try to blow warm air, open up, and use more air than you think you’ll need

[@peebles3710]

How did this get third?

[@Jason-hp2so]

DCA/dci I&e ???

[@calebkostencki6223]

Sounds like the music that played during the lego batman games😂or in the batman movies. Definitky batman vibes for sure

[@ikeeichenberg9068]

I hope that he performs my piece even if I don't win 😬

[@avorus5425]

Now that’s what I like to see! Some 🍌 Haha. Good video as always and keep up the good work!

[@thebrickshooter5974]

Wow

[@bouneouthomas3354]

What is the name of the music end please thanks kiss kiss

[@classicaltrombone]

Power Down off the album Half Man, Half Machine 🥰🥰

[@bouneouthomas3354]

@@classicaltrombone thanks you

[@marionapolitano7827]

How do you keep your tempo consistent across all of your parts?

[@goldenguardian4407]

Can you play Destiny 1, or Halo music ?

[@iangriffith6731]

3rd place?

[@aarontmb8493]

Hello

[@jumptosky4768]

Which trombone are you playing in this video?

[@hkirkham1370]

Are you allowed to base your composition heavily on another piece? Just saying this sounds a lot like Batman 1989... I understand that chord progressions aren't original to one composer or another, but when something bears that much resemblance it doesn't seem coincidental.

[@classicaltrombone]

Technically, no. I'll look into it!

[@hkirkham1370]

Thanks Chris! I love the way you're inspiring young composers with this competition! Keep up the good work!

[@Tbaribone1115]

Do you still have your alto? I noticed it’s not hanging in the room

[@classicaltrombone]

^it's true! But if you're asking because you want to write an alto part for the competition, write it! I'll borrow one!

[@007_mo9]

I Play trombone too

[@kennethschechter7087]

Imagine if a DCI corps marched this

[@sethebrown]

That would be a dream come true!

[@classicaltrombone]

Madison Scouts did it in 1979 :)

[@mrwizzardknight]

How does the composing completion work? :)

[@classicaltrombone]

Check out the link in description! I explain the whole thing :)

[@mrwizzardknight]

Christopher Bill Yo Christopher mate? I'm hoping to pull a you one day! 😃😃😃 That's how much I admire you dude! 😃😃😃 Love your favourite Englishman, me! XD Michael Galan-Diaz from Sunderland! XD Have you ever heard of Sunderland before? :)

[@hankkirby5386]

Composition competition, say that three times fast

[@1AmGroot]

This would be so much more awesome if plated by a brass choir of 100+ poeple!

[@viscosity7893]

The Beginning sounds like Batman

[@roledepop1104]

Primeiro Brasileiro a comentar.

[@deriksantos8353]
