- A dramatic and forceful overture with lots of rhythmic drive. This contest oriented work features an alto saxophone solo and fine melodic material. PERFECTION PLUS!
Performed by the Washington Winds under the direction of Edward S. Petersen.

Tell me you were in band in high school without telling me you were in band in high school. 😂
Totally
Exactly! I remember all the parts!
THIS PIECE IS FOR HIGHSCHOOLERS??
@@ducksternumber2993 Yes, I first encountered it in honors band in early middle school. When I played with the high school band. It was a right of passage. You weren't good until you could perform this competently. It was a staple at concerts. Learning this piece well was part of your ascent up to first chair.
@@pitpride1220 wait 1st chair?? in percussion, i got put on the snare drum part but am on 4th chair lmao
Probably my all-time favorite we played in high school band. Freshman year, 1979!
played this song a lot back in high school concert band. I played tenor sax. still one of my favorites.
Same. Played Trumpet 🎺 (1st part)
I always wondered what grades played this... We played this in 6th grade
Same here except I play alto saxophone.
I did this in 8th grade. Both middle schools did this piece for the bridges concert with our high school freshman band. I miss my band instructor. He quit teaching and now works as an apple employee in retail.
We played this is middle school too. Surprised to see so many, played in highschool comments.
Played this in '95 high school . Clarinet ❤ never forgot it. I still play it to remember 😊
Fall of 94. Percussion. Right there with you.
I'm reading alot of played in highschool... We were able to played in middle school. Thought it was more of a beginner song.
Playing this year as a clarinet! 6th grade
1985 for me....clarinet too 😊 many good memories 😅
Im playing this in Highschool right now on clarinet LOL
This is my all time favorite concert piece. I played this in middle school. I majored in music and have played most of the classic literature. This piece shows that a piece of music doesn't have to be extremely difficult to be great music.
I gotta concert tomorrow and this is the first song we’re doing this song first, and I’m doing the sax solo! Wish me luck guys 😅
Good luck 🤞
I also play a sax
@@acceleratorgaming4754 nice
How it go?
@@taurussho86 it went super well
I remember playing this in ‘93-94 with the Clarinet. I had a karaoke machine, that recorded 4 tracks at the same time, so I would play 1&2 chair B flat clarinet, and 1&2 chair Alto Saxophone just to record multiple layers of this song at the same time. ( On cassette tapes )
3:50 Has to be my favorite part. All the different melodies that are in play and how each section come’s in one at a time, chefs kiss✨👏
THANK YOU for posting this. I played this song in middle school and absolutely love it.

Feels like James Swearingen only wrote this composition and everything else he wrote is a variation on it....(I'd call him the Nickelback of composers, but he's actually interesting...)
I can see that. Very similar throughout his other songs
I can’t wait for my tenor sax solo
Playing snare drum part in my incoming concert, im sophomore
2:39 listening to this part is so funny cause we had a bari sax (myself) and a tuba and nobody told us to crank it back, so we were just blaring it 💀 I think it added a march-y feeling to the piece which honestly our director was digging lol
Bruh I’m in middle school and got first place in its this song😅
Okay so I've heard from everyone else. Trombones how you feel about this song?
Measure 44 😭
Love it! Majestic!
