The final five minutes is some of the most powerful music ever written for wind ensemble
I attended this wonderful concert. I am a retired Navy musician, and my youngest son is the double bassist on this concert. He loves his job!
Thank you for your service!
Hello - Perhaps you know the answer to this question, or could ask him, but why does that group of musicians (at the far left) wear different uniforms than the rest of the band?
@@DavidForemsky they do that so they don’t damage the cords on their uniforms. I was an Army Bandsmen and percussionists and Sousaphones never wore their awards and decorations during parades and things like that.
The band members wears white epaulets and white cords! The orchestra members don’t
I am so thrilled that this group performed this piece. It holds a special place in my heart having worked on it at UMASS with Maslanka himself. One of my favorite musical experiences in my life for sure.
Woah...clarinets actually playing tunes, not just sounds, on the mpc/barrel combo....cool!
David Maslanka (1943 - 2017) - a great friend of the American wind ensemble
Thank you for sharing your wonderful performance of this amazing composition! It is a shame that CZcams insists on interrupting the performance with advertisements :(
This is exactly how this symphony was meant to be played. Bravo, Marines!
I got to play this on bass trombone with the Virginia Tech Symphonic Wind Ensemble 10 years ago at Carnegie Hall. Brings back a lot of good memories.
Who was your conductor?
@@brianjungen4059 Dr. Travis J. Cross, who is now Director of Bands at UCLA
Did you know Dave McKee at Tech? He was my HS band director.
@@brianjungen4059 Yes! He conducted one of our pieces on that tour to Carnegie Hall. He mainly did the MVs, which I never did.
I love how Doug is the thumbnail and opening solo. Way to go!
My man, Sam B. rockin' the bone!! I miss playin' with you at APSU! -Joe H.
Super to hear this masterwork from The President's Own!! This is the piece that convinced me to pursue this thing professionally - must have been incredible live!
Bravo tutti.
My son aspires to join the ranks of these exceptional musicians someday. This was such a treat, thank you for sharing ❤
Practice, practice, practice!
@@brucekuehn4031 and practice some more. 😂
That last few minutes - chills!
Fantastic! Great job on the horn solos Doug!
Oh! How this is marvelous.. I love so much this .. fantastic you are .. thank you Marine Band for this beautiful music .. WOW! Absolument wonderful ❤
This performance has one of the best balances between the winds and the organ Ive heard
Playing this for my high school concert, it’s so good
The saxophone mouthpiece use is incredible!
Excellent horn intro. No quivering lips here.
At 24:23 the quote of praise god from whom all blessings flow is perfect!!!
Well done guys! Very impressed with the last movement. Bouquets to the percussion section!
Beautiful playing from all! I’d love to hear you all record Maslanka’s 7th Symphony as well!
It was great live.
Go Darren! and Lewis!
Muito linda interpretação...bravos
I always appreciate hearing wind ensemble repertoire performed by professional musicians rather than college students. Fine performance
i wish the conductor provided the breath for artistry that is inherent in the music that maslanka wrote.
Horn win! Doug Q. is the best!!!
Great performance! Where's the brilliant vibrato for the saxophone solo?
I'm not God but if I were you I would say bravo you play that as a unit from your heart with perfect softness and lives and beautiful beautiful me Lucy
stan maslanka
Is there anything in concert band repertoire more epic than 24:51, except maybe the end of Russian Christmas Music?
Valid question
There’s John Mackey’s Wine-Dark Sea
@@charleyhibschweiler4555 The parallels between that piece and this one are really interesting. Mackey was definitely inspired... how can you blame him?
The African Methodist Episcopal version of “Praise God, from whom all blessings flow? How American Anglican is this piece…
Yes, though that melody has been in existence for way longer than the United States has. Bach uses it in Cantata 130 which is older than the United States. czcams.com/video/bptAGuDHhe0/video.html
@@BigAl72ZGE der Fürst die Cherubinen. Yeah… a response to this comment would take a 25 page academic research paper. In short the concept of the United States of America has been in existence well before 1776; Cantata 130… as color is not race and as an Allen not a descendant of Bishop Richard Allen (founder of the A.M.E.) but James. As a founding church of the USA African Methodist Episcopal is very GERMAN; as are we.

Очень люблю сша 🇺🇸
❤❤❤
okay CIS CIA now I'm going to crush the visible portion of pre-existence to you, genesis to them, or of course creationism. thanks and live forever
Wow this piece gives me big ticheli vibes haha
It's definitely better than Ticheli
Maslanka walked so Ticheli could run
24:10
10:50 24:50! 23:00
The only thing that could have made it better was a real organ!
