Anyone who's ever been locked up and confined to suffering and agony for any period of time knows how much they want out. The tight combination of dynamic mallets and groovy concert percussion will lead the way to the only exit in this ensemble. As if the prisoner just woke up from being thrown into their entrapment, the ensemble immediately starts off in a panic. Throughout the piece, players move from agony and tension to a period of calmness and deep thought. And strategically, with strings, tricks and teamwork, they find their way out to freedom by the end. Or will they...?

This sounds more like a high school indoor percussion than it is a percussion ensemble
Hmm, why do you think that?
@@EricPeelMusic the tempo, the drums, and the mallet notes
This was some of the most fun and hardest I worked on any piece back in High School. I had no idea how good of prep for college musicianship doing this piece with you was.
It was a good experience for me too and I’m glad we were allowed to do it!
Ive just started on playing it and hope its more easy
Cool! What part are you playing?
@@EricPeelMusic Vibraphone
@@kinggeneric9316 Good luck! I wouldn't say it's any easier to play than before, but the notation is a lot easier to read. And that can make music easier to learn.
If only my middle school percussion was this skilled lol.
Just have them slow the tempo by about a third! I’ve seen several recordings of middle school groups play this a bit slowed and it still translates well!
Ohhh, haven't thought of that.
This and the original version really reminds me of my Junior-Senior High School year when I was a Marching Band Member for 6 years straight (although I play Brass instead of Percussion), now that I'm graduated from University, how fast time flies :D
Happy that the piece gives you some nostalgia! Thanks very much for watching and listening.
Got the notification about this upload and was beyond excited. I was left with even more excitement after listening. Holy this update is Awesome!!
Thanks for listening, Antonio! I have a lot more updates this year and hopefully can start on some newer pieces too before the year is out. I'll strive for this level of quality or higher!
Eric Peel Music I can’t wait to hear it!! I’m currently a sophomore in college and I’ve been involved in my colleges Percussion ensemble for each semester and we have yet played one of your pieces. I’m persuading the professor to have a listen to your stuff and hopefully we will play something. My senior year, he allows us to conduct a percussion ensemble piece of our choosing and I would love to conduct Bigger Demon. Is that getting an update soon?
@@ARMProducts1120 TAaBD won't get an update this year. It's a bit over 7 years old now and still fairly developed compared to my super old 10+ year old pieces, as I made a lot of improvements to my workflow around that time (2012-13). But 3-5 years from now, I'll make an update on it for sure. Next in line are Fruits & Veggies, Titan, Relationship, Metallic Lullaby, Snowfall, Altitude Wellness, Life Ruined, Culture Shock, Gymnopédie No. 1 for solo vibraphone, 5 for Two, Consumed by the Universe, Greensleeves (never published), Snowfall, Beached, Dusk to Dawn, 5 for Two, THEN There's Always a Bigger Demon, On a Hike, Gymnopédie No. 1 for Percussion Ensemble, Time for Polyrhythms, then Pavane for a Dead Princess for solo marimba. Hopefully this will all take less than 5 years but everyone knows how slow I am. I also want to write new pieces and create different versions of some pieces - like an indoor show version of Escaping a Nightmare or a concert version of Clockwork. Right now I'm revamping the audio player on my website because the functionality of the current one is poor. I may create another channel for tutorial videos because the few tut vids I have up now are big hits. Lots of things to do and I'm only one guy doing it all with absolutely no means of paying someone to help out. Anyway, lots of good things to come so keep staying tuned! I also appreciate your comments on each one of my videos. Means a lot and keeps me motivated. Thanks, Antonio!
Perfect. Exactly what I’ve been waiting
I’m glad it suffices! Thanks for watching!
Oh my this was beautiful
Thanks very much for watching and listening.
Love this piece, and our percussion kids loved it too. Highly recommended!
Thanks again for playing, Brad, and I'm very grateful for your support!
That was heavenly! I forgot how much I loved and needed percussion music in my life.
Percussion is one of life’s necessities! Thanks for watching!
Incredible!
Thank you! Have you seen Dusk to Dawn v2 too? ua-cam.com/video/ilLY0ULyckc/v-deo.htmlsi=7gBSZ-ByZUpimr_w
Played this for a uil ensemble this year, im not even usually a percussion player but i got put into chimes, brilliant song, and hey, we made it to state
Thanks very much for playing and congratulations on getting to state!
Me and the boys are rocking this piece out, and it’s so much fun to play
Thanks for your support!
I remember playing this for my school's concert last year,so much fun
Thanks a lot for playing last year, and for checking out the update!
I love this
Thanks for watching!
Really nice work. I wish my high school, 20 years ago, had access to this kind of material.
Thanks very much! Wish I had a time machine to make that possible.
Good stuff man
Thank you!
Very epic
Thanks for listening!
I really like this update! Definitely needs an optional drumline accompaniment. 😉
Thanks, Nate! I will put an indoor show version on my list!
@@EricPeelMusichow's that coming along?
@@leoarevalo6786 Hey, Leo. EaN Indoor Show is still on my list but I'm unsure of when I'll get around to it. Other updates will come first, hopefully many this year. I'm currently working hard everyday learning workflow improvements and notation animation for future videos. But hopefully within 1-2 years. Thanks for showing interest. That helps bring it forward in priority.
Xylophone part goes hard
Usuallly the most experienced player is the one to get it.
My symphonic band played this, this is a super good song!!!
Thanks for playing, Louis! And thanks for commenting!
@@EricPeelMusic what daw (or program) do you use to make music?
To make the audio, I use Logic Pro. And to notate, I use Sibelius. There are a lot of other programs involved as well but I’m not sure exactly how much you want to know.
Eric Peel Music I guess to somewhat get a start on composing music and stuff like that
I’d just get a subscription for Sibelius or Dorico and then purchase sound libraries for whatever you need.
Got glocken spiel (bell kit) for this piece, wishing I got xylo cuz it looks so fun, but I think it's because I have a vibraphone part to clapping music variations
Also a fun piece to play! Thanks for playing glock for EaN though, someone’s gotta do it!
cant believe i got to play this for my ensemble best piece ever! (i was glockenspiel)
Thanks for playing!
@@EricPeelMusic well my teacher gave it to us
@@TrollProRoblox Oh I see, it just got passed out. In that case, good luck!
@@EricPeelMusic im already at the end so i know how everything should sound with my class
I’m going to play this with my teammates in our band D:
Have fun!
Ok :D
Wow this is amazing. What plug-in did you use for the mallet percussion sounds on this?
I don’t support the company that makes these sounds anymore. But I highly recommend Orange Tree Samples for marimba and vibraphone. I used Pure Jazz Vibes in my Consumed by the Universe update ua-cam.com/video/OyiUvvRaU6s/v-deo.html and Paradise Marimba and PJV in my Pachelbel’s Canon arrangement. ua-cam.com/video/dt2yAFJx_PU/v-deo.html
This ensemble was so good. I made a drumline version of it
Cool! Can you post it?
Yooo I play xylophone for this 😵
Awesome, Ryan! Thanks for playing! I don't think I touched the xylo part at all for this update btw, so if your group receives the update in time, you won't have to learn any new notes. haha
Same
I **just** watched “We Are Columbine” and realized this was in the movie!
I just watched it myself and now I know what you mean! That's really weird! Thanks for telling me!
Donde puedo encontrar la partitura?
¡El enlace está en la descripción! ¡Gracias!
My school doesn't have indoor percussion 😢
This is a percussion ensemble, not an indoor show ;) So it’s allowed!
What software did you use to arrange this?
I used a software that I no longer wish to refer new customers to. Your best bet as of now is Dorico, as they have the fastest development and best support network.
what software do you use?
For this piece:
Notation: Sibelius
Sounds: Virtual Drumline
Lol I was a bit early and very confused why it said main 1
Sorry about that! I added video tags and made sure it was "NOT MADE FOR KIDS" but somehow I forgot the title and description 🤦🤦🤦
