Underrated comment
Too cold to go outside today? Let our CZcams channel entertain you! You can't go wrong with Maslanka's Symphony No. 4.
I had the pleasure of working with David Masalnka and performing this symphony. It was and still is the highlight of my musical career.
what!
@@JakeWolven qq1
As well, also had the pleasure to work with him and it was a spiritual moment I will never forget. I experienced the highest energy level to date in an ensemble playing this piece. The colors, characters and scenery he created for this piece come from a place he found in meditation (as much of his music does)
Such a shame more of the world isn't exposed to this absolutely delightful music, played by some of the most talented and gifted musicians on the planet. Thank you for bringing us such sensational music.
Ryan Myers ryan you won congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those who search for themselves instead of following the path of trends end up finding hidden gems as a reward.
@@aramkhachaturian8043 Damn very well said. I respect your views. Thank you.
Her: I bet he's cheating on me
Me and the boys at 3am:
not the babies...
RIP David Maslanka, sad day. You will be missed!
RIP to the legend that is David Maslanka.
Come on, ads during a symphony should be illegal.
Holding a dissonant clarinet note at the end of this and then releasing it at the very end, after all that had gone before, was the singularly most exhilarating musical experience I've ever had. It was almost impossible not to burst out laughing or something because of the built up energy, but the room was silent for several excruciating moments until the conductor (Dr. Wakefield at the Univ. of OK) finally lowered his arms and the applause started.
god i want that someday
Yes!!!! And there are several of Maslanka's works that have this affect!
That melody at 25:50 is the main reason I love playing trombone. It's such a powerful instrument.
that's called the doxology chorale
If you like it listen to Bach's cantata BWV 130
Maslanka and De Meij are the best wind band composers of the modern era in my opinion
One if his best symphonies in my opinion. I had the privilege of meeting him when the ensemble I was in performed his mass, only a few months before he passed on. He admitted that when he composed 4, that was the time when he felt that he had finally accomplished his true sound as a composer.
He was a brilliant composer!
I just wanted to hear the slow section again, and I come here to find out Maslanka passed away :( Rest in peace, your music is eternal.
A highlight of my life was performing this masterpiece as a member of the University of Arizona Wind Symphony in the Spring of 1994 under the direction of Gregg I. Hansen. Dr. Maslanka was present for our performance (as well as one or two other performances including "A Child's Garden of Dreams") and described his process in composing this piece. I get chills hearing this version and remembering the looks of exhaustion and joy on the bodies and faces of the entire ensemble at the completion of the performance.
I absolutely love Maslanka's Asian influences that can be heard in his music
Our high school band director wants to have us play this for our next concert; the level of difficulty is just wow. I totally admire you guys, this is great. :)
Maslanka is one of my favorite composers and Symphony No. 4 is just an amazing work of art!
Rest in Peace David Maslanka. So honored to have played this piece my sophomore year of high school (Horn player)
At 25:49, every trombone player is probably thinking, "yeah, THIS is why I play trombone."
Farewell David, thank you for your beautiful music, for your beautiful life...
Dat bone section... damn.
They played this at state mpa and it was a ROLLERCOASTER, i was not expecting a 30 minute song and it was probably one of the coolest 30 minutes ive ever experienced, core memory formed
yeah man it was pretty crazy right!!! you were flabbergasted
I'm a huge fan of David Maslanka, a bigger fan of Mallory Thompson, and a long-time supporter of this fine ensemble. These three things combined make for a stunning performance! I can only imagine what it would have been like to actually be surrounded by the sound in that auditorium.
I was able to hear this piece of music in an amazing concert hall. It was probably the coolest things I have ever heard. The ending just building and building on itself, this piece is amazing listening to it but hearing it in person is just something else. You get to feel just how powerful this piece is, it’s absolutely amazing.
Yes I heard it yesterday and I got chills
that eerie moment at 23:44 and then my favorite part when everyone is like OMG these runs at 25:35- and the brass is just like...haha melody in slow duration!!! (percussion has these runs basically throughout the symphony!!!) this is my favorite piece of all time and NAVY BAND ROX!!!
Oh man that alto sax solo gave me chills at 10:22
4:05 sounds like the last movement to John Mackey's "Wine-Dark Sea".
+Patrick Tran Yeah! I noticed that too =)
you mean the last movement to Wine Dark Sea sounds like Maslanka 4. This piece is a solid 20+ years older than Wine Dark Sea.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU NAVY BAND! This is my favorite recording of #4. Trombones! OH MY GOODNESS! You were so powerful and heavenly! Every single one of you guys just nailed it. Exactly as it should be played. I attended UT when Junkin premiered this piece at TMEA in 1994! It will alaway hold a special place in my heart! PS-I went to High School with your harpist, Emily. She always was such a delightful, sweet lady!
Mallory Thompson...my favorite conductor. It was a pleasure to study with her at NU.
Played this a few years ago at the Wind Symphony at the University of Oklahoma. Love the piece so much! I get chills every single time I listen to it.
Sooo many moods and ideas. I love this! Really well written.
Great music played by a great ensemble. This is something to be proud of. Thank you for posting it!
This is a MUST listen. Beautiful!
Thank you all for your fine musicianship and service to the country!
Thank you, David, for your wonderful music! Thank you, Navy Band, for your outstanding playing! Thank you, Mallory, for your inspired leadership! This is a mountaintop experience!
The University of New Hampshire Wind Symphony will be performing this in a month or so! I can't wait! They are amazing!
'What a way to spend a Half Hour
Rest In Peace, David Maslanka. Thank you for all of the beautiful music.
What an amazing sound! Such sonorities and strength!
Olive David maslankas work, we played give us this day in my high school band and later just yesterday we got to go as a band to see his 9th symphony at Texas state. Our band director is a friend of him so he talked to us for about an hour before the concert. Then I got a signature from him. He is a awesome and funny guy.
It's Barney Stinson @3:50 on contrabassoon!
I played this back in the 90s as a student at the University of Nebraska. Euphonium. I think about 25:30 is where I usually burst into tears. What a piece, and this is a great recording!
Loved this! Inspires my work on stuff that I'm engaged in doing
Wow. That moment when Old 100 just erupts from the ensemble...so amazing.
Wonderful writing, performance and video production!
I think Mother Earth should be up there, as well as his concerto for alto sax and wind ensemble. Both of those are great works.
Amazing! Great! Music!Never new him before!
Now I don't feel so bad about my tax dollars going to the military!
I was right there with you - these masterful musicians are the best possible use of a tiny % of our military budget!
...or rather I was with you, up until 6:30 when I saw a Selmer Paris model 41 contrabass clarinet appear in the video. That instrument costs over $35,000 - it's the musical version of the military spending $435 on a hammer! Your tax dollars and mine, hard at work...
SaxTeacher yes, however I think as music educators we can both agree the tone produced can be almost incomparable in comparison to a student model, or any other intermediate models. Also I know they provide instruments free of charge, however who’s to say the contrabass was provided to the player, after all they do have to endure some form of music education to be considered for a spot, I’m sure it was a rented model payed off by the time they ended up in this ensemble just as most of the other instruments are, with the exception of the percussionist :)
These musicians elevate the art form to its highest, and bring great honor to themselves, their ensemble, The Navy, and the Unites States of America.
@@mdickinson you also are assuming that the military bought it. That might be true but at the same time they mightve bought it themselves
@@mdickinson to be fair, every tax paying us citizen paid $.0002 for that contrabass clarinet
RIP to David Maslanka. He will be missed.
My all time favorite for this piece and anything by Ron Nelson.
@Fumbles9001 I was in attendance at Baylor University with the University of Arkansas Wind Ensemble in 1994 when this piece was premiered by UT with Maslanka sitting very unassumingly in the audience; one wouldn't even had known he was there except he was cajoled into standing to receive the ovation from the audience which lasted several minutes. I have yet to experience a premier of any work (orchestral included) since that time that was received with more excitement and hope.
changed my life!!!
At 26:12, the alto sax player stops playing to scratch his ear.
Big if true!
Very Beautiful Concert USNB. Bravo!
This is very inspiring, due to the fact that I would like to be in a service band in the future
forgive me..to clarify- the people going OMG! runs!! are in my band, these talented musicians in the NAVY band are just like, oh yeah, more runs, ok no biggy! Such amazing musicianship and how they play with such great balance...and with such ease too!! I hope to be at that level some day!! Come to Alabama and play this one more time....please?
RIP Maslanka :(
Thanks for the info! I've got the DWS recording but never knew that UT and Northwestern had one.
man.. ball busters on the chops XD
Belíssima execução! Os músicos estão de parabéns!!!
Música empolgante, gostei.
Love the french horn and low brass!!!
25:50 made me wish I played trombone. Amazing performance and composition.
it is very hard as a musician to not at the least have an appreciation for what a spectacular piece this is. I've heard it performed live by the University of Miami (Florida) Frost Wind Ensemble, one of the best collegiate bands in the southeast, and it is truly breathtaking live. however with a good sound system or headphones this video does it about as much justice. thank you all for your service and musicianship
@CPTRv1972 The Commodores jazz ensemble and Country Current country-bluegrass ensemble will be in that area of the country this fall. The Concert Band, Sea Chanters chorus and Cruisers contemporary music ensemble should be there in 2013. Thanks for your support!
Maslanka is the my all time greatest composer when I'm in wind ensemble I hope I at least play give us this day like they did this year at my high school
Outstanding...
Rest In Peace
19:09-19:42; Quite impressive, the amount of time and work must of demanded much practice.
RIP.
I saw this live the other night. The finale is just incredible. There is no recording that could possibly compare to sitting in the same room as the music when the drums get going. This is one of those pieces of music that must be felt as well as heard.
David maslanka is coming to work with us at my college in November! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited!
Me Too!
Jason Lee Brace yourself for Maslanka
Our outgoing Director of Bands at WVU conducted this piece as his last with the Wind Symphony (highest ensemble; he's moving to administration). He brought in a full organ for it; hell of a way to go out on a 25-year career!
Director of Bands to administration strikes me as being a demotion (the former is surely more enjoyable), but perhaps it's for the good of the school.
sensacional!!!
There's a very significant spiritual back story to this song that was told to me by a band director friend about a decade ago, and I can't remember exactly what it is. This is absolutely phenomenal.
What's the back story?
I'll send out an email to the director friend....I'm wanting to say a child's death. But....I'm not certain. I'll double check.
+Ryan H. Turner Thanks pal! I'm fairly young and I just love contemporary composition- especially songs with deep meaning behind them.
I heard something similar, but can't remember. One of the parts was supposed to echo crying I believe?
The flutes are played in a special way towards the end to mimic crying of unbaptized children in purgatory or so my band director said
The whale part gives me chills every time.
such an amazing texture at 5:13
Indiana University of Pennsylvania Wind Ensemble will be performing this next semester, and I couldn't be more excited.
Oh dear, indeed...I suppose it does happen to the best of us.
I was always jealous of this solo when performing this piece at my own university. The principle player at the time had seniority on me, but I always felt I had JUST the right sound for this solo.
Yes
We are playing this this year
One of the most difficult but fun timpani parts I have ever played.
It's incredible
The emotional drain though. Holy cow. I can see why people would cry after playing this piece.
New world school of the arts students are performing this music , we are going to record this amazing music
The ending reminds me of Shostakovich 7th ending
There are parts if this song that remind me of Give Us This Day
This video is perfect in two ways.
1. It is a video of a piece by David Maslanka
2. The length of the video is 30-06.
evildude109 what’s the significance of the number?
@@chopincj7530 Popular rifle calibre. These days its use is limited to that of a sporting/hunting cartridge. From 1906 (hence the -06) thru to the Korean war it was the primary rifle round of the US armed forces.
For anyone who's interested in purchasing a recording, my top picks for recordings of this piece would be:
Dallas Wind Symphony & Jerry Junkin ("Maslanka: Garden Of Dreams")
University Of Texas Wind Ensemble & Jerry Junkin (1994 TMEA Convention)
Northwestern University Symphonic Wind Ensemble & Mallory Thompson ("Rising")
The UT performance can be found on Mark Custom Recordings's website. Look under "TMEA." It's a live recording of the world premiere of the piece.
The Northwestern Symphonic Wind Ensemble has one out now.
I hope to be playing in the us NAVY BAND next year as a tuba player!!! My all time goal!!
did it ever happen?
Is there not an organ player? Very important for this piece. Amazing sounds though!
“Good music survives incomplete instrumentation. Good music survives substitutions.” -David Maslanka
@dare2dream0728 Maslanka has a theme called Song of the Golden Light that appears at the end of this piece and in many other pieces he has written. According to his good friend and my All-State clinician, Gary Greene, there is an arrangement that is just of the SOTGL that they have been trying to get people to catch onto for years. Maslanka's music is GORGEOUS but it is SO hard...
subbed!!
I would put Traveler in front of Give us this day, but all great pieces none the less. Maybe you need a fourth spot there :)
recording this was a real struggle.
Bravo
Who the hell disliked this?
@veegenose thanks!
If you love this, check out the video of the 8th Symphony of Maslanka by the Aulos Wind Band!
🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷💃Beautiful!!
Old Hundredth is one of my favourite chorales. I think parts of this are based off of it. RIP, Maslanka.
In the music it actually says “old 100” as a reference for rest counting
@@tko5019 I don’t remember whether I knew that four years ago, but I definitely didn’t know it now. TY for the fact!
@@korialogo lol I didn’t realize the comment was so old.
