Absolutely beautiful performance of a great GREAT symphony!!! Schoenberg is a great composer... I’ve been a fan of his wind compositions for a while now! Bravo!!!!

How does it feel to not only play, but to WEAR a marching snare during concert?

[@ozgoodel.9645]

Wow, this music rocks! This could bestow musical glory on the Schoenberg name!

Did he opt to not use a baton during this concert or did something happen to it? I'm not complaining, just wondering.

[@johnries5593]

Not all conductors use them. Not even all instrumental conductors use them.

[@aeroplano111]

@@johnries5593 I understand that. My high school director never used one, and I've seen other fantastic conductors who don't use one. I actually later discovered, from a former student of Junkin's, that he (Junkin) was suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome at the time, and that that was the reason for him not using a baton for this performance.

Crap. Not the band.

A whole new definition of uninspiring mediocrity.

I'm sure you can compose better music?

[@927drummerboy]

This really wasn't the timbre of snare drum Schoenberg had in mind at all. The size he really wanted was a 16 inch diameter drum with calf skin heads tuned in a medium timbre. What is implemented here has too sharp of tone with notes that are short in duration. Totally opposite of the drums of the 40's, 50's and early 60's when the piece was composed. I wish greater authenticity of detail had been pursued for such a fine wind performance.

[@sabin615]

This symphony is by ADAM Schoenberg, born 1980. This symphony was composed in 2017. This symphony was commissioned by the Sarah and Ernest Butler School of Music and Texas Performing Arts for The University of Texas at Austin Wind Ensemble, and is dedicated to Jerry Junkin, who is conducting here.

[@927drummerboy]

Yes, this was realized after the inadvertantly rendered post; however, the fact remains that a Pearl Renaissance Drum would have been more conducive to perhaps what the composer might have wanted. The Pearl field snare doesn't exude much taste of presentation that the UT Wind Band is so noted.

[@jtrainn423]

@@927drummerboy You do know that Schoenberg was at the rehearsals leading up to the concert? If he wanted something different he would've asked for it
