Man those chords at 8:09 are aggressively in tune. An incredible performance!

This old Godfrey transcription is about is good as we can ever hope for this delightful work in a band setting. The original key just isn’t suitable for band, and all other transcriptions just don’t capture the spirit of the piece quite like this one.

Fantastic!

Une des plus belles interprétations pour orchestre à vent (cuivres et bois), de l'Ouverture du Carnaval Romain que j'aie entendues. Une petite attaque difficile à 1:43 mais la qualité demeure grande. Bravo à l'USMB.

Oui! Bien Sur!

[@oklahomanorm2278]

What a thrill to be in this elite band.

[@margaritamix5995]

I miss playing this song :(

[@leonardtrebors8808]

Probably one of the most unique and moving performance of the English Horn solo at the beginning, I liked it!

[@RWBHere]

Agreed. The cor anglais takes more skill to play well than many people appreciate.

[@bobcetra4768]

Definitely prefer the orchestral version

[@LyleFrancisDelp]

Thank you for your input.

I need some protection over here in Mount Vernon Georgia!!! So many lies and setups!!!

[@jessicaeernisse958]

I can't hardly breathe in my apartment in Hidden Forest Apartments! They do their own thing in Mount Vernon Georgia! And I am totally unsafe and my apartment is repeatedly robbed and I made a police report but it was over a week before they meandered over here to install it and having two men and the new manager lady come and insisted on obtaining the key to the old doorknob! But my friend Maria Barfield is who I called for protection and to be a witness! Please! I need protection and safety and security and out of Mount Vernon Georgia!!!

[@donaldwood7968]

i believe today we have a tendency toward isolationism not nationalism. If we were more nationalistic the phrase "i only regret i have one life to give to my country " would not remain in limbo.
