Bravissimi !!!

[@MrBrassboy]

Amazing musicians and an excellent director.

[@giannisk.916]

Incredible. Best band I’ve ever listened to.

[@02887727356]

try grimethorpe colliery band same music

[@juanalfaro7522]

Thank you USMB for playing this great Rossini overture! Never had heard it in band format. The Adagio section is very interesting with the woodwinds and brass background taking the place of the 5 celli on the orchestra version. The rest sounds the same except that it doesn't have the strings. As a college student in Puerto Rico, I played Rossini's Semiramide Overture introduction (I would have liked to play the whole piece).

[@carlbehr4909]

Awesome performance! I love hearing this concert band version as performed by the President's Own. I don't think it could be played better than this.

[@bonespiel]

Another cartoon classic first heard as a child! 😉 They did a great job and well played.

[@ms.maryellencasey7671]

I use to hear it from the western show Lone Ranger.

[@MrWatson658]

Hot damn! That’s so clean! Great job guys!

[@AxmihaMeuSaco]

What a fantastic orchestra. Just amazing. Amazing musicians! I'm happy...

[@johnellis9352]

You guys make my dreams come true 👍🙏🇺🇸♥️😂🏅

[@MKDAWUSS]

It'd be interesting to see how one of their rehearsals go.

[@buddhistandcatholic]

I saw one in 9th grade actually. They were very polished by that point but they're much more casual. They play like they mean it, but they're not on show. They're in street clothes.

[@Intimidator39]

Search inside the rehearsal room U.S. marine Band and you’ll find some

[@Edward-lf7ms]

Rossini would approve!!

[@alissaharder]

All we’re missing is the Lone Ranger and Tonto riding. Hi-ho, Silver! Away!

[@cathymarie8304]

English horn part was beautiful…

[@TheMrFarkle]

A real rouser. Good arrangement.

[@thayes8334]

Very well done! Congratulations!

[@Edward-lf7ms]

ONE MORE TIME!!!

[@brockseeman7808]

10:21 the piccolo articulation has me losing my mind

[@marujaaparicio1009]

Gracias!!

[@lucyyoung77777]

HUGS VERY BEAUTIFUL

[@BassistPaul]

Excellent.

[@deltaveedesignconsulting7697]

The videographer clearly had not rehearsed with the band. A que sheet would have helped.

[@Kevinardo]

I'd love to see the soloists as they play.

[@Kevinardo]

On the other hand, the performance is immaculate!

[@coloraturaElise]

TWO Eb clarinets, and neither of them is MIchelle! Oh, and great tempo, esp. the last section! So many people try to go too fast with the band, like the clarinets can do with their tongues what the violins can do with their bows. Of course, Col. Fettig is a clarinet player, so he knows!

[@thedude4065]

That sounds kinky.

[@richardstone5813]

I also played Principal Eb Clarinet and performed this many times on the concert platform with Royal Marine and Guards bands. The quickest tempo was with the Band of the Welsh Guards in the Royal Albert Hall, London. I had an advantage though…I could double, and triple tongue! (Central Band of the Royal Air Force, ‘73)

[@SportyMabamba]

03:59 That bass drum percussionist is having the time of his life

[@coloraturaElise]

Yes, but the poor trombones right in front of him! Of course, it's while they are busting out their awesome part, so maybe it doesn't bother them as much!

[@davidrichards3314]

@@coloraturaElise The conductor should have sorted the drummer out at rehearsal. I can tell you it would bother the troms, many that I know would have put him in his place.

[@Avstinato]

​@@davidrichards3314 The percussionist isn't even hitting it that hard, if anything that looks like a standard forte to me. It's been pretty common for conductors to ask for more from bass drum specifically during those kind of loud moments and wouldn't bother a trombonist playing one of the most fun excerpts ever written

[@peterdavid5279]

I'm a big wind band fan and simply can't find another outfit that matches the quality of these guys across the repertoire they cover. Tell me I'm wrong?

[@coloraturaElise]

You are NOT wrong....they are THE BEST!

[@jaysparc]

Of course beautiful ensemble, intonation and incredible dynamics. It's a shame the camera couldn't spot the soloists. Looking at someone holding a whole note is not great direction.

[@n.n.3447]

Great performance of this melody but how come there is no Violins and the likes in this orchestra??

[@3dfxvoodoo]

Muy buena version y no usan violines, espectacular!

[@user-by3wq1dt3z]

Простите что пишу по русски, хотя сам не русский, но живу в российской федерации. Ваш оркестр очень хорошо играет! Здорово, прекрасно!

[@coolestgedown1versionrobbe647]

Bruh

[@phthartic]

Not complaining or anything, but I’m sure hearing a lot of stuff from the Euphoniums I don’t remember playing in Symphonic Band. And it’s in the slow part, so it’s not because I was faking it. Interesting chords I don’t remember being there. Maybe it was a different arrangement.

[@jay-day]

Been listening to this overture for many years (popularized, of course by the old Lone Ranger series). They play the notes differently at 8:24. Is the popular version wrong, or are they playing it wrong?

[@OpenBiolabsGuy]

This is all the William Tell Overture? This is several different songs rolled into one!

[@orcunciftci1691]

Kinda weird without strings but great though! Congrats

[@iheartaven]

7:57

[@alliemenegakis1164]

Best band. Worst cameraman

[@kucilun17]

there have a sleeping drummer😂 9:51-10:07

[@WOLFROY47]

all well and good if i wanted to fall asleep. but my idea of the william tell overture has a lot more ompff, as in, hi ho silver. maybe i'le stick with the 1812 or beethoven

[@emjay2045]

Sounds clean. NO EMOTION 😐🚫

[@supmet2]

Solid performance. I could use a lot more dynamics. It's laying a bit flat and to safe.
