I had the pleasure of playing this piece as Principle Trumpet, with Mr. Reed conducting. He was a musical genius in my humble opinion. I met & conversed with him several times & will miss him always.
what a treat that must have been, I believe you when you say he was a musical genius -- I've lived inside several of his works and they are impeccably composed and scored.
That's about as cool of a connection as I've ever heard. It's like being Frank's trumpet player. When we played this at Luther in the early 80's, one of my favorite memories of playing this on band tour was the one time during rehearsal Fred said to the lead trumpet player, Mikey, "SING....MIKEY!!" and Mikey brought down the house. The fact that you could see it got to Fred just made it all the more emotional. It was first of many times that I got goosebumps from hearing that solo during band tour. What a great solo in the perfect register for it.
it's one thing when you hear them, but to be able to see the size and power of the chords Reed writes, and the incredible lines that weave together to form an absolute masterwork of wind literature...wow. i appreciate this so much, thank you for creating this study!
Yeah, the dude knew what he was doing. Even if you don't like his musical material you cannot doubt his mastery of orchestration and how clean and effective his sense of harmony and voice-leading are. thans for this comment, Ethan
Yeah it's the spiciest chord in the whole piece and it's in the penultimate bar. One last little thrill before concluding. Grainger used to do that frequently, save one really juicy chord right before the final chord. Thanks for you comment, if you are digging the series consider becoming a patreon supporter, even a 1$ would be greatly appreciated.
7:22 he quotes "Joy to the world" in the trumpet and then at 7:23 to 7:29 I hear in the cornets and saxophones quote "we three kings". Why did he quote Christmas music I will never know but it must have been a random thought.
Hard to beat the Tokyo Kosei. Fred Nyline directed them for a semester while I was at Luther '83. When he came back he told us about their extensive use of tuners and mets at their stands and how incredibly hard they worked. He played us a recording of Rocky Point Holiday that they made with him. It was SOOOO flawless. He said it was a humbling experience.
I haven't done a JB piece yet, but he definately will be featured in this series soon. I have some other pieces of his that I also like and it's been kinda hard to find which piece of his I'd feature first. I try to think about feauturing a piece everyone knows and I can add valuable insight and knowledge people can use to enjoy the piece even more. and then I think maybe highlight a piece by the composer that is good but under-performed so that I can maybe help it get some more attention.
That's a fun piece! I'll add it to the list for consideration. If you enjoy these video consider making a donation through my patreon page, even a dollar helps!
Traveler by Maslanka is actually another one of my most requested pieces for the series! El Salon Mexico is an orchestral work so I'd have to start a seperate series to do that but I'm not against it. Once I get more Patreon supporters I will be branching out into Brass Band and Orchestral works
@@AnthonyOTooleMusic I know, Fb would be functionally more logical since its leading down to the Eb :) Nice Video though! How long does it usually take you to make one Episode?
you...you...you did my favorite piece of all time... i think i'm gonna cry this is awesome, christmas in april
Myles Gunter it’s a quarantine miracle!!!
Definitely one of my favs from College. Such great writing.
it's my fav concert band piece of all time too :)

That ending on a polychord was sweet!

One of the greatest love stories ever put on a sheet of music
Haha I was listening to it this afternoon and now you upload it tonight. One of my all time favorites, thanks for sharing
crazy timing
This was my absolute favorite piece I played in high school. To this day, I still miss this song and it's just an excellent piece of music.
That's the best part! I listen to the piece often and wait for that part...and then maybe rewind a couple times to get it again and again
LOL. When I fired up my computer today, this was still up and started playing at about 8:00. What a nice way to start the day.
This is an amazing piece ive never heard before
glad I could expose you to it! Check out more by Alfred Reed if you enjoyed this
I love this song.
same
すごすぎて感動しました🥺
アルフレッドリードの曲、他も出して欲しいです！！
「猟犬」はチューバで演奏したことがあったけど、レコードを聴いただけでは不明な点が徐々に氷解しつつある。スコアを持つことと、ピアノで音をさらうくらいの気概が必要になるだろう。8分の6、8分の9、4分の3と振り分けには気をつけなければならないが、8分の6、8分の9小節内で2連符があるのは初めて知った。90年代当時、EBマークス社（リードの作品の何点かはここから出版されている）から出版されていたことをしっていたが、東亜音楽社が出版していたので、それを使ったことを覚えている。イングリッシュホルンが使用されているが、影譜でアルト・サックスにもパートが割り振られており、アルトで演奏されることが多い。緩徐部はホルンとイングリッシュホルンのパートだが、ホルンはFrench Hornという楽器であったことに気づく。FrenchとEnglishか。思わずニヤリとさせられた。

This brings back so many memories, and using Tokyo Kosei's recording made this video perfect.
It's the best recording of the piece! great tempo and the energy is sustained throughout, no slacking of the pace
@@AnthonyOTooleMusic Agreed! Your wind band breakdowns are excellent, it would be awesome to see more of them!

@@ChristianPaulson-Music What a cool story! Thanks for sharing.
Nice🎉
2:59 The D natural in the "9-8 suspension" is an appoggiatura, no?
I’d try the piece called Danza Sinfonica by James Barnes. It’s one hell of a piece
I haven't done a JB piece yet, but he definately will be featured in this series soon. I have some other pieces of his that I also like and it's been kinda hard to find which piece of his I'd feature first. I try to think about feauturing a piece everyone knows and I can add valuable insight and knowledge people can use to enjoy the piece even more. and then I think maybe highlight a piece by the composer that is good but under-performed so that I can maybe help it get some more attention.
Cool!
@@AnthonyOTooleMusic I think danza is the perfect candidate for the under appreciated piece. Like the comment said it is on hell of a piece
I'm taking a note of my audition, that starts at 8:35 in this piece
can you do Festal Scenes by Yasuhide Ito next?
That's a fun piece! I'll add it to the list for consideration. If you enjoy these video consider making a donation through my patreon page, even a dollar helps!
Would you consider doing Traveler by Maslanka or El Salon Mexico by Copland?
Traveler by Maslanka is actually another one of my most requested pieces for the series! El Salon Mexico is an orchestral work so I'd have to start a seperate series to do that but I'm not against it. Once I get more Patreon supporters I will be branching out into Brass Band and Orchestral works
@@AnthonyOTooleMusic Mark Hindsley transcribed "El Salón México" for band.
Amazing! but you did miss the timpani solo in 146/147
MrTableturns true. Didn’t fit it in there. My bad.
1:27 reference for me
Bar 42 shouldnt that be a Fb instead of E?
MCMeru same note, enharmonically spelled.
@@AnthonyOTooleMusic I know, Fb would be functionally more logical since its leading down to the Eb :)
Nice Video though! How long does it usually take you to make one Episode?
i'm kind of surprised this only gets a 4 on the difficulty scale...
that might have been the difficulty in the 1980's/90's but now its a hard 5
