Windependence Artist Series - Grade 5
Ride is a high-velocity piece inspired by a landscape-blurring car ride down a country road in Pennsylvania. Beginning and ending in the same key to symbolize going from one “home” to another, Ride zooms through harmonic and metric changes in between to take listeners and musicians for a “ride” before building to a furious climax.

@@TheRandomWolf as you do
it’s just double tonguing, it comes over time

No. Although it is fast. Not quadruple tonguing. Just double tonguing. Which practice make perfect.
Mr. Hazo said this piece was made after he had to follow Jack Stamp to his house. They drove 25 miles in 15 mins. This piece is what that experience felt like for him desperately trying to keep up with Mr. Stamp. LMAO
Cool
That's fascinating!!!
Christ that’s fast💀
100 mph
This is the song that we are playing in band right now. And im a sophmore
How fast do you want it?
Samuel R. Hazo: FAST FAST
My band did this and made the French horn section play alone and as loud as we can. As one of the two French horns, I died for a hot minute.
I was First chair when i did this, and only cause i was a senior, the other first chair was like a genious and a sophmore lol- bro the keep up was real i remember SWEATING playing tis
Have an essay due in 1 hour so that’s why I’m here
How’d it go?
same
@@natebit7167I don’t think we’re getting an answer😔
Aww man
yo bro you finish that essay yet
Played this my sophomore year of high school, and it holds a very special place in my heart. My sophomore year happened to be right in the middle of COVID, so we were only going to school every other day, and our directors weren’t sure if we’d be able to put the piece together in the 3 weeks that we had to do so before our spring concert. But, by some miracle, we did, and the end result was incredible. One of the best performances I’d had throughout high school.
Bro I’m doing it for regionals right now but we’ve got 3 rehearsals to get it done and then we’re gonna perform it for spring pops
I never thought playing a solo was so hard till now~🎷
wish my friend goodluck, he's gotta do it now
@@Astro-uv1xq tell him I said good luck
@@Vibecheckpolice I had to play this solo as a freshman. I was nervous out of my mind lol.
@@ericratliff217 oml yes that feeling is the worse lol
@@Vibecheckpolice frrrr
This is gonna be our show's closer this year and the hype is insane
Same
what college
This was our closer my sophomore year of high school. Easily the favorite show we played :-) Olympiada was our opener, which is also awesome.
Jake Franke Same
Jake Franke damn boys drop the links of the show
The poor woodwinds!!!!!
yes dear lord help
Flute, here. It was a nightmare. But our band scored first place, so it was worth it!
@@dellarosa1716 flute here also it’s so hard I’m only in ninth grade 🥲
1:23 is the most amazing thing I have ever heard. Words can not describe how mesmerized I was when I first heard that part.
If you separate all the instruments each part would still sound incredibly epic
I figured out what makes it so epic. The seamless Retardondo and accelerando, and the fact that part is short compared to the rest of the song so it hits you like a train because you don’t have time to process it’s true EPICNESS. It also sounds like it has no melody even though I’m sure it does.
Sounds like something from a boss battle
Sounds like the theme of a movie... which is why I'm stealing it for the theme of a movie.
especially at 00:54
*why do i hear boss music*
Sounds like a Pokemon champion theme
@@VunderGuy pirating is always an option
1:22 gives me chills every time. Damn do I miss being in band.
Ty 😂😂😂😂😂@FFRN00B
2:17 it makes me funny❤❤❤ 🙌🙏🙏👶🏿
Imagine if this was arranged for marching band.
(edit: it has been imagined, and plenty of times at that lol)
TheNathannator it was part of my junior year show in 2009. Mr. Hazo came and talked to us about it as well.
The Flash
as a member of marching i can personally say "oh god please no"
It was gonna be part of our marching band performance, but I don't know what's happening with all that now
It was our third and final part of our show in 2015. Look up "Triathlon Hilliard Darby" and it should come up :)
I love every song I’ve heard from this guy so far, AND OMG THAT SAX SOLO IS SO GOOD
we're learning this rn and we (trumpets) got so mesmerized by the sax solo that we forgot to come in
Played this my senior year. By far the most challenging piece of music I ever did with the high school band. But when everything finally starts coming together, it felt absolutely exhilarating to play this song successfully and accurately!! The looks on the audiences faces was particularly satisfying. This was probably a college level song and we got all superior ratings at our assessments (not really competitions, your simply graded on an individual level). This really would make a great marching band opener!!
It’s our marching band opener this season!!!!
@@Caydence_with_a_Ysame here, hopefully we can pull it off and take it to state
I did it freshman year, I wanted to die, mostly because I was last chair. 😅
@goofymonke- Clarinet
1:09 damn the sax slaps so hard here
And to think this came out of someone’s mind. Bless this man’s soul
Got the pleasure of playing this back in 7th grade, I'm still haunted by my Marimba part. Curse the south for being so competitive, looking back this was absurd for middle schoolers, let alone 7th graders.
WTH
HOW??!!!
wtf school did you go to? The only school in the south I can think of that could pull this off with middle schoolers is Niceville in Florida lol
@@razrv3lc I went to Lakeside Middle School in Cumming, Georgia. I'm still amazed by it too.
They’re lying
One of the first songs my high school's new band director pulled out... super hyped to see what we can do!
omg
@@Makanalanimakamae bro fancy seeing you here LMAO
Excuse me was that a Bb above the staff for Tuba?
just played this my senior year of highschool, the best music we have ever played before out of my 4 years
Does Hazo hate woodwinds and French Horns, I mean seriously
Ikr😂
Actually he loves them. That's why he does this stuff!
we’re playing this in wind ensemble currently and it’s so hard but i actually love it. like this song is stuck in my head almost 24/7 lmaooo
Oh my god I wish I could write like this
Never played this piece but at some point in my life I will play this in an ensemble if it’s the last thing I do. absolute marvelous piece
1:34 is the best part and no one can disagree
. I'm performing this as a bassoon for our spring concert. Just sight read the whole thing today. It's only my junior yr but.... I guess that's what being in the highest band gets you...... wish me luck.
good luck out there
I've been in those places where you're trying to hold on for dear life and it's stressful, but it's worth it
Bassoon talking to bassoon, hope you did well 😎
One of my fave pieces ever!!
This piece for ever will be a bop 🖐🏾😫
Currently playing this on Flute in a community band when I played it on Bassoon in high school. WHEW!!!
Man I should join a community band one day
aha! another flute and bassoon player!
@@isobel_lilyv pleased to meet you! ☺️
This was part of this years show opener. Best time ever!
Playing this song in band... didn't know exactly HOW FAST IT WAS. Rip. I can't tongue that fast on bass clarinet and double tonguing isn't an option
Brooooooooo same, I just try stagger the air in my throat. Sounds kinda weird but at least it’s in time
I ain't playing this song and I dont even play clarinet but I can feel the pain
I can barely tongue individual 16th notes, let alone whatever this is
Yeah, 167 BPM isn’t a joke 😂
And people say arabesque is hard
As an oboe, Arabesque is waayyy harder. Could be different for other instruments though!
I also think Arabesque is wayyyy harder but idk
We're playing both right now and arabesque is harder for 1st and 2nd horn, but ride is harder for 3rd and 4th horns. It's all the runs and rips that Hazo desperately loves to give us horns.
Harder Much Much .Harder Much Is Kafkaesque That Say Can I .Player Piccolo A As
@@nathanasher1945 Rips are super fun though.
Man, this piece is so much fun to conduct. Our director has this as part of the drum major auditions, and it's amazing.
I've had the pleasure of learning how to conduct it as well, and it's really a ton of fun. 😁
the flute part. played this on pic and flute . grade5 so fun to play tells a story .
I’m in 9th grade playing the first flute part 🥲
Blasting this while driving through Araluen (Croyden Rd, Perth Hills, Western Australia) is the best fun I've had. I'm trying to imagine listening to this (and John Mackey's Undertow) while driving through the twisty roads of Tasmania.
Percussion though 😩👌
Percussion for life!
This brings back memories. This song was one of the songs in the marching band show of my high school...That was 16 years ago, during the 04-05 school year.
This was a hell of a piece when the MMEA Maine all-state did this back in 2013. God that was an amazing concert!
Our all-county’s band just played this as a closing piece, and one of the best parts was that the band director also gave a speech giving the background of the piece (it was a whole comedy of it’s own). This piece is definitely good at expressing that frenetic stress 😂
I'm going to stop complaining about playing arabesque now
Exactly 167
BROOOO I WANT TO PLAY THIS SO BADDDDDD
Did you do it?
lana nicole it’s literally so fun
1:08 im in love
My band director had the kid playing that stand up during the concert and put sunglasses on 😂😂
@@maryemmaregen8834 he must felt good but probably nervous at the same time
this was both a nightmare and a blast to play. most fun kind of stress I've ever endured.
the first trumpet part will never cease to amaze me
Enjoyed this piece so much as a clarinetist when I was in high school! Ahh, the nostalgia…
just got assigned this piece in wind ensemble and this sounds so cool i’m so excited to learn it 😭😭
This song is so nostalgic - played it back in 2005 and I was fighting so hard for 1st chair alto sax. didn't get it feels bad man, but the song is so hype i didn't care that much
I'm a junior in HS who just got 1st chair alto, and this will be my first serious solo. I'm playing it for you, stranger on the internet.
@@nagdia Go out there and kill it! It's only 14 measures, but in that moment it's your time to shine!
played this back in band, goosebumps!!!!!
The bells part up to measure 15 made me wanna jump of the school because the temos "Sonic, but with a line of crack" (luckily it was just an adution peice)
My highschool band played this at WKU not that long ago and we got a distinguished+ since we were the only ones to play this high of a grade piece. We also played o magnum mysterium. Both beautiful pieces.
This song fried my brain trying to learn it but man! What a final performance before graduating! Glad I got the chance to play it
I’m a flute player. Haven’t had to play this for band yet, but I might have to. Flute part looks like an absolute nightmare. In fact, I’m convinced that Samuel Hazo wants to torture the woodwinds, just looking at the first few notes.
We’re gonna play this for a closer for marching band it’s gonna be lit
I loved the last note on bass clarinet my goodness so enthralling
ride by samuel hazo drinking game
take a shot everytime the time signature changes
Played this my freshman year in region with this crazy director from North Carolina. Still the hardest piece I have played to this date.
This is my marching band’s opener this year!!! So excited!!!!
The gong part for this. FFFF MY GOD BRING EARPLUGS
so excited for this to be a marching band piece!
This is the hardest song I’ve ever played. I played it in my district honor band my junior year and I was having a hell of a time
This song was so awesome to play. I played bass clarinet after I switched from B flat clarinet this song was tough but so meaning ful amazing
So excited to play this for concert season. The horn part goes crazy.
so True
Playing this in band, and I realize now that Samuel Hazo probably despises the flute section. Those notes, I swear, I didn’t even know the fingerings for anything higher than a Bb!
Great piece overall. Love it!
playing this for our spring concert this year :) super hyped!
Absolutely bombed that one chime part when I played this
THE INTO WAS AWESOME!!!!!!
tried playing it. now my mouth hurts 👍
playing it this year along with clown act on bari. look up clown act. its amazing march
"so how fast would you lik-"
"YES"
"b-but sir we didn't even-"
"YES"
I played this for my concert and had so much fun
We are about to start playing this for wind ensemble and I'm terrified but also super excited hhaha
Love this piece!!
this song made me desperate to advance to my group's wind ensemble once I heard them perform it
I love the way this guy writes
Reliving my concert from last year again... this was really fun (even as a freshman)
Your lucky to play this level of music as a freshman 😂. Im playing this as a senior
This is the song that we are playing in band right now. And im a sophmore
I really like this one!
its a scorching day in mid august.. You are doing sax sectionals inside and hear the drumline in the distance warming up with their cadences outside. Just a matter of time until you join them outside in that heat to run the opener, Ride. Running the same sets over and over again until exhaustion. sweating through your clothes, heels feeling sore and the words "heel to toe!!", "RESET" and "FROM THE TOP" start to become ingrained in your mind. The days fly by and before you know it the scorching heat has turned into the brisk cool air of an October evening and you find yourself in front of a huge crowd, competing against other bands in Scranton PA.. Drum major are you ready? Band are you ready?..
This was easily the most complicated piece that was ever in my HS marching band's repertoire. Marching to the ridiculousness that is its mixed meter was pretty crazy
I barely made it through this piece my freshman year of high school🤣🤣
I remember playing the chime part for this piece in high school band.
I gotta march this this upcoming season
okayyyyyyy but horns have such epic moments in this!!!!🔥
playing this for our marching band opener at grand nats this year 🥵
Fun fact, this piece was inspired by roads by my town. The percussionist in this is also one of the directors in my school district
I did this for a college concert when in I'm in high school, and now my high school band director wants to to do it for our spring concert
Can't wait to play this next month
I marched this in 2008 with fusion core drum and bugle corps. I was coming off of clarinet and learning baritone for it. Hellish piece to learn on 😂😂😂😂😂
Boiiiii!! I have to play this by myself for an audition!!! (Only the first 15 measures though)
The only piece I've played that goes to 6 flats in concert pitch.
corona stop my band from playing this at our concert 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Oh nooo same. what part did you have?
Damn.. shame.. I’m getting to play this on tuba so wish me luck
@@arbycool5214 i play trumpet, what do you play?
@@TheRandomWolf have fun and good luck you got this 💯💯💯
@@bomberkingatom3936 percussion. I wanted the xylophone part but I got the chimes instead which are still pretty cool.
Not many times that you can say that the bass clarinet part is not only fun, yet a challenge as well
Kill me I’m an alto....
I got to play snare for this and that groove at 1:23 was too good, head bop everytime I played it
Why does rush exist..
Because, simply because.
It's an easier version of Ride.
it’s kinda better
That ending high note at the end of the sax solo isn’t written but it sound so much better imo
Man the French horn part really is the mvp in this song. Especially at 0:41
How is my band teacher not doing these awesome songs in band (we did do Hazo's "Ascend" tho)?
