I played this piece under Dr. McBeth himself in Arkansas All-State Band back around 1994-1995. Such a great conductor and composer. I don't think I've ever played a piece by him that I didn't enjoy immensely.
@m.rockwellparker91624 жыл бұрын
We played a McBeth piece in one of the AR all-region bands, and right before we played, the conductor had McBeth stand up from the audience. There was a collective jaw drop in the band. He then came up to us after and was so kind and humble. Great memory.

I had the pleasure of performing this and learning it under Dr. McBeth for a whole week at Arkansas Tech University band camp in1990 if my math is right. Seeing him dance around with spindly arms like Queequeg...awesome experience.

@@jeremyford3522 We chewed some of the same dirt...I played this at HSU Band Camp My senior year in 1992. Dr. McBeth didn't conduct us, but he did attend the performance. I was 2nd chair tympani so I filled in on other percussion while the first chair worked his ass off. He was about to go to HSU as a music major and the sea battle scene ate his lunch. I've never hit a gong so hard. We had played Masque at my HS before and he wrote some great stuff for percussion.

@@andrewmcfarland7580 Yes, at that spot the Trombones actually have a written pedal Bb (unison with Tubas). Knowing that, I took the liberty of playing the Tuba's pedal Bb (which I can, with considerable power) there, instead of the written unison with the Trombones. It sounds a bit like there is an Organ with a 32' Contrabombarde playing the Bb if you do that, which is awesome.
