    My Dad was a clarinet player and a high school band director. He graduated from Oberlin College. After he died, another band director had our community band play Mannin Veen in tribute to him. He told me it was my Dad's favorite song. I didn't even know that, but I can see why. Beautiful.

      Clarinets rule this piece. From Eb piccolo/solo Bb flat/ 1st 2nd and 3rd part! I played bass clarinet in this piece. I would borrow the principal clarinet part and get my life

    As a solo clarinet player in high school this piece was very difficult. It also didn't help with the fact that we didn't have an Eb clarinet. Anyways, this piece played by the U.S Marine band plays it better than anyone imagined and it will always have a special place in my heart. Props to all you clarinet players who had to struggle through this lovely piece. :)

      I also played the solo part with my high school last year. It's a very daunting piece, but the President's Own makes it sound easy (as they often do). It's amazing how difficult yet how majestic a piece can be all at the same time.

    Several people here have mentioned doing this without the Eb clarinet part; I had the privilege of doing this when I was principal euphonium in the Indiana University Symphonic Band under Frederick Ebbs some thirty years ago which had a first-class Eb clarinettist (we need more of them!) AND we performed it in the IU Auditorium with its Hilborne Roosevelt organ in the finale on the "Organ ad. lib." part. It felt like the heavens had opened to shine upon us - it was one of the greatest experiences in my life.

    This is an amazing recording. The precision, blend and balance is just stunning. The solo parts stand out yet are not inappropriately histrionic. The climactic moments soar majestically. This is the best recording I've heard.

      @@riss3480 In the condensed score, it says "1st Tromb. & Hn. (Euph. legato)" suggesting that the part is indeed in at least one of the horn parts. I don't have access to the parts but that's pretty crystal clear if you ask me. Especially listening to this recording, you can hear the trombone and horn timbres individually. Listen for the attacks and the decays- the trombones are very audible during the attacks, but get lost as the warmth of the horn sustains throughout each note.

      No, people don't write like this anymore. Alas. But remember, this was first an orchestral work of the "British Light Classics" genre, and transcribed for band afterward. Odd, that it's more of a staple for bands than orchestras. One rarely hears the original these days.

    This has always been my favorite Concert Band "Tone Poem" - first played it with the University of Nebraska (Lincoln) Symphonic Band, our top wind group under legendary Donald Lentz and then again under baton of great director, Jack Snider. I conducted it with both my Wagner College and Temple University Symphonic Bands as well as took it for some guest conducting engagements. This piece shows off the entire instrumental range of our American and British concert bands!

    easily my high school band's favorite song. we played it at 2 contests (got superior ratings in both) and a bazillion events including a national band directors and composers association meeting as well as graduation this year. It was very fun to play this one at my own graduation. even if those faster flute parts are much harder than anything i've seen before.
