Don't watch, just listen! Third Suite by Robert Jager! Please visit our website: radioupload.webs.com Copyright Policy: radioupload.webs.com/copyright...
*in stereotypical Australian accent* And in the second movement, you hear the rare bassoon coming out of its hiding spot among the greater, and bigger instruments and sounds. What a spectacular thing to witness!!
Took me nearly 40 years to find a recording of this after practicing it for a 7th grade UIL Concert Band competition in Falfurrias, Texas with band director Mr. Manchaca back around 1972. Even back then I thought the melodies had a pop music sound and I still do at 52. Wow! It sounds even better than I remembered especially with such a good recording and played right. Looked on Amazon for a CD and got nothing. Dang!
we played this for concert competition when i was a freshman in high school; i played timpani, and it was so much fun to play. we ended up getting sweepstakes that year :)
We're dedicating a concert to Robert Jager so all the pieces ( I think we're playing 8 or 9 ) were composed by him. It's really great that he's going to attend the concert! And we're going to have a recording session with him as well! I'm a trumpet player at the University of Texas at El Paso.
my band is playing this for a competition in May. then our director told us she is retiring this year. this is what she played her senior year in high school. then our marching band show was the same as her first show she ever wrote. i'm a junior. so new director my senior year. woopie.
Robert E. Jager is really cool. He spoke to our band about this piece, saying the march had a limp, ask his wife, he never learned to dance, and well... the rondo's a rondo.
flashback to my highscool senior year, i remember wee played this along with ride of the valkyries ,boys of the old brigade, first suite in E flat, and two more wich i cant remember, but yea playing bass trombone i was not able to feel my lips for the next day but i loved it
I am playing this song for our concerts this spring, and as first chair clarinet I totally understand what happened at that solo. So I feel the pain :S
The Granby High School band in Norfolk, Va. performed this in 1966 under the direction of Mr. Jager, who was then a staff arranger at the U.S. Naval School of Music in Norfolk.
I was with the Band of The Commander IN Chief, Atlantic Fleet in 1966, and remember helping you guys learn this piece. Bob Jager was my theory and harmony instructor at the Navy School of Music, in 1964. My friend, George Palmer and I, in 1964 or 5, altered a French Horn mute, for a student at Granby High, so that she could play French Horn with a messed up right arm. Donna was her name. She played he Mozart Horn Concerto with us at one of our Granby Park Summer Concerts.
I played string bass on this piece in about 1983! It sure helps fill out, especially in the 2nd movement! We just performed this piece on Saturday night (3/2/13), and the tubas couldn't count all those meters, so my string bass would have helped them immensely! (I also play horn, so that's what I played that night). We also needed a bassoon and oboe! (used euphonium and flute). Still fun to play, though!
i love this piece it has good measures and also tone and depth... it is a good march the watlz i like cause of wonderful light tone lol rondo is hard.... |:( my school is doing this and been working on this for a year and still nothing. we even tried mambo... that one was hard
Am I the only one to have ever played string bass on this piece? I have never heard any other band use a string bass on this song. There is actually a separate part for string bass, believe it or not -- not just reading a tuba part.
No. Our director needed more trombones in top band so she took the two best from the second band. However, we may have played the tempo down a little, but not dreastically
I'm probably the only percussionist here but omfl that timpanist is horrible (that's what I play so I'm really mad) and the cymbals need to just stop I'm so disgusted

We tried to learn the entire thing in one day for an honor band. Fortunately, it was fantastic:)
I play 1st trumpet on this piece and it awesome! I love it!!

My ninth and tenth grade honors band is playing this. I'm excited!
Flutes are so sharp
I loved the third movement out of them all.

Played this in sixth grade, first trombone. For time restrictions, we left out the second movement.

We're doing this for our All County Band, sounds amazing :)
Ugh! The audience is clapping between movements!
That's the worst, except for when someone brings a baby or small child.
i love this piece it has good measures and also tone and depth... it is a good march the watlz i like cause of wonderful light tone lol rondo is hard.... |:( my school is doing this and been working on this for a year and still nothing. we even tried mambo... that one was hard
This is great! :)
my school is playing this as well. go first horns!
our high school band II is working on this! It's so fun and challenging :)

Last year we preformed Art In the Park and I was unable to stand the between movement clapping.
Doing all three movements for competition. I'm in a high school varsity band member and we're performing this song with 152 members.
im doing this as a 7th grader, we have the best junior band in the state,but our high school is bad at marching -texas
jvon ortiz-c Sounds like Rice Middle School to me :P
Aw, Clarinet just blew the Coda at the end of the Rondo... Damn.
Does anyone know where I can get the Clarinet sheet music for this??
Our director just pushed us hard. But I was also in the top band at the time.
Jager is so.....strange. Lots of mixed meters. Has anyone else ever heard or played his Testament?
This is pretty good. :)
Dont you worry- I'm playing bass on this song too!!
I really love the melody in the second movement with the pizz. Do you have a favorite melody?
Did anyone else here the clarinet error at 5:11??
+Maxium Maharg (musica) yeah, i just heard it
+Christopher Zhou LOL
That moment when they clap during movements.
They just don't understand..
Who performed this?
What's with the flute being extremely out of tune ???
No. Our director needed more trombones in top band so she took the two best from the second band. However, we may have played the tempo down a little, but not dreastically
Do you normally play in an orchestra, or do you play another instrument in band? Just wondering...
I really must say this, but am I the only person that hears the flute as being extremely out of tune in the second movement?
Me too and the clarinets
It's grossly out of tune.
Jager wrote this just to piss Revelli off. He couldn't conduct odd meters like in the 2nd movement.
Ugh, Solo Clarinet solo in the 2nd movement.... I was a little disappointed!!!! I still love the music though!!!!!
wait do you live in japan?
that pic solo made me cringe
1st trombone. YOLO
It's the best part.
NO, NO CLAPPING BETWEEN MOVEMENTS PEOPLE!!!!
Clapping between movements. ಠ_ಠ
how the hell? there is no way beginning musicians can tongue triplets in presto and play that high
Playing this for State Assement. GO BARITONES AND EUPHONIUMS!
lol same here XD
>< clapping inbetween movements...
And after listen this, explain me why the orchestra es better than the band? I think are the same
clapping between movements shame on the audience...
hiccup at 3:23
that hiccup is actually part of the song believe it or not.
I played this at an honor band at the University of Alabama.. Our band played it way better..
My high school band plays it much better..
+Tyler Mackie
Same xD
I'm playing this in my middle school band.
+T.J. Kim I'm playing this in my elementary school band :)
lol
This is a wonderfully ridiculous piece to play as a percussionist.
If you suck
I'm probably the only percussionist here but omfl that timpanist is horrible (that's what I play so I'm really mad) and the cymbals need to just stop I'm so disgusted
you are not alone :D and yes, im actually playing this too and the timpanist is really bad
I played snare and then bass and I was right by the timpani so yes I noticed
This is literally one of the worst pieces of music ever written
only from the perspective of the people playing it
especially the flutes
broccoli uses performance-enhancing drugs
You misspelled the word 'best'....;-)
@@derspike I'm guessing don't play the clarinet...
