Excellent performance! As an aside, I always wondered why Bernstein did not include America in his Symphonic Dances. An opportunity is lost, so am glad it is here.
Lovely music to be hear. The genious of The Maestro, inmortalized him in a very deep way. This West Side Story it's so powerful and a perfect description of an era in the american way life in New York City my hometown. My congratulations to the fabulous WDR ensamble. Many Thanks.
Hervorragende Performance! Tolle Musik! Ich hätte mir einen längeren Schlussakkord mit mehr Power gewünscht. Auch waren es mir hier und da ein paar Dämpferstellen zu viel. Das ist aber natürlich alles Geschmacksache.
Ja, der Einsatz von Dämpfern ist in jedem Fall Geschmackssache... zum Schluss: Eric Crees hat sich ja entschieden, nicht den leisen, "ersterbenden" Originalschluss zu wählen, was ich eine interessante Variante für eine konzertante Aufführung finde. Aber der Schlussakkord soll natürlich nicht triumphierend oder dergleichen wirken sondern immer noch zur West Side Story Bezug haben und deshalb die Dissonanzen und das nicht zu lange Halten (und scheinbar abrupte Abbrechen) des Akkordes, so dass es etwas verstörend wirkt...
@@PepperJack291 This really well done arrangement for brass ensemble and percussion was published by "Just Music" with the catalogue number JM49540. Numerous specialist retailers offer the score with or without parts for purchase from their stock.
@@PepperJack291My guess is if it is available, it would be for hire only. As Bernstein's music is still in copyright, I would imagine Eric Crees would have had to get special permission to make the arrangement (which he made for London Symphony Orchestra Brass back in the 80s, I think).
It seems that nowadays there are no more composers at Bernstein's level. What we have seen is a series of dissonant chords poorly linked together and winning awards. From Brazil

Fantastic! Is this arrangement available for purchase?
There ia an album called In Residence with the European Brass Ensemble which also includes some Prokoviev, Wagner, and Bizet arrangements.
@@JPFalcononor Thank you, but I meant the actual sheet music, not a recording.

In der Aufzählung der Instrumente fehlt leider das Euphonium…
