I'm starting to like this Grainger fellow. I'll have to check out more of his work.

[@DarkLava2007]

FourthDerivative If I could recommend a piece I would suggest Children's March. A very fun piece to listen to and play.
EDIT: I had watched this video before knowing that Children's March was done right before it! I still recommend it!

[@kyle-silver]

FourthDerivative The rest of the Lincolnshire Posy is a great place to start

[@temp_name_change_later]

This is only the fourth movement of his most famous piece, "Lincolshire Posy". I'd strongly recommend listening to the whole thing.

[@MusicNerdMIDI]

He’s one of my favorite composers!

[@MrMayAllDay]

I would highly recommend it!

[@kyle-silver]

Awesome! Grainger is quite the interesting composer...

Lovely! My favorite Grainger suite, behind "In a Nutshell"

[@oslo7718]

somehow this made me understand this piece more thank you

[@smalin]

Funny how that works, huh?

[@DrunkenGeneralsMusic]

this makes it really easy to hear each individual part more clearly. Like the 1st basson in :18. Great work.

[@mauricedesaxe1745]

Yay! Lots of classic band pieces; good work Smalin!

[@ze_rubenator]

Dat ending. I like it.

[@kunstderfugue]

Great to hear you got performances by the Marines Band. They have yet to dissapoint.

[@AmadoDom]

i love all your works dude!!!!

[@bettamese3275]

can you movement 1 please? I read your website but it would be really nice if you could

[@tiagomarques9822]

Really, really nice!

[@blacksun2163]

Very cool, please tell me you are going to do all of Lincolnshire?!!

[@smalin]

+blacksun2163 I don't expect to, no.

[@blacksun2163]

Ok, maybe just "Lord Melbourne" lol!

[@GalleryOfChameleon]

I hadn't heard of Grainger before you began posting videos of his work. I really like the two pieces which you have posted, but I don't like the strange dissonant ways in which he ends those pieces. Interesting choices by the composer.

[@smalin]

Daniel Hartnett When I first started working on this animation, the ending puzzled me, but now, having heard it a hundred times or so, it seems perfect (and very wry).

[@johnmcallistermusic]

smalin Thanks for posting this.. Grainger is fantastic, but it's usually just us band nerds that play/know his music. He also liked to write some very thick chords (as you noticed with the last two in this piece) .. Glad you posted this!

[@wowiamninboy]

Will you by chance be doing Shepherd's Hey (also by Grainger)?

[@smalin]

wowiamninboy See "Could you please ..." in the FAQ.

[@litoboy5]

cool

[@angelo877]

What are the instruments? Tell me the color.
Pls

[@angelo877]

?

[@nostalgiakarlk.f.7386]

Is the orange diamond a saxophone?

[@smalin]

Same colors/shapes as in Children's March.

[@nostalgiakarlk.f.7386]

smalin I watched this one first, so i didn't know.

[@peterjongsma2754]

Grainger is Australian.
We are quite cultural.

[@wewladstbh]

Light Calvary overture or riot.

[@nathanhol42001]

Well that ended weird

[@smalin]

yep
