Look for the old records of circus music with Merle Evans concocted the RBB&B band. You will have a new favorite performance. This was a good concert version. It's not a concert piece.
They are musicians. That is what they do. Under the conditions this was written for twice a day, three times on Sundays. And move the bandstand to a different town every day.
Okie Dokie unless you have physically played the trombone and practiced this piece you wouldn’t understand the idiosyncrasies and specific techniques necessary to play such a piece
Where was the gliss at the end to emphasize the sheer fun it is to play this song as a trombone? It just makes the ending sound more energetic then the static note for the trombones did play.
I had the Euphonium part and it was years ago, but I don’t recall any glissandos written. That’s probably just for people who refer to this as a “song.”
Not hard actually. Depends on the speed lol, it’s not a hard song just know how to double tongue and that’s literally it. My wind ensemble group in high school were suppose to play this year and it was pretty cool but sadly covid canceled all plans.
those are how fillmore marches are, they’re meant to be played really, really fast (as my allstate band director once put it, as fast as humanly possible)
This is a galop. Written for circus. This performance is a little slow. Filmore wrote more for marching bands than for circus. Most of those marches are a little slower.
Impressive to say the least, but every director and performer should, for a piece like this, find the right balance between speed and clarity/practicality. Some of the licks in here are, to put it simply, not very clean. Now I am not bashing these performers, I am simply pointing our that this may be a bit too fast for these students to perform. Overall very good, just a bit too fast.
I enjoy the poor bassist still sorting his music when they start playing
If you can play it slowly, you can play it quickly
thats very sacrilegious
Ohohoho, two set?
For trombones: If you can play it loudly, you can play it louder.
Interesting!
Actually for a Galop or screamer written for the circus, that was a little slow.
Fantastic!! The entire ensemble was great, trombones were outstanding!!
This is my personal favorite recording of the rolling thunder march. Well done!

Is that Timo?!
Very impressive that all those bones stayed together and were so clean
Hey. You wanna go to the museum next week? I bet you a dollar you'll be pretty impressed.
this reply is so funny and probably 10 total people have seen it :(
Well, almost...
The trombone professor at UT Austin, Nathaniel Brickens, knows what he is doing.

Notice how fluid Mr. Alessis slide coordination is compared to the students lol
Looks like some of them didn't practice for 40 hours a day.

@@LuigiF hehe thank you. made my night. cheers!
That’s the musical equivalent of saying that this floor here is made of floor. Of course it is, it is just like that.
@@ktylol2693, more like the students didn’t have the 40 years to practice that Alessi has had lol.
We are playing this song at my high school, and as a trombonist, I'm quite excited
Anyone notice Trombone Timo lol
I played this, this year (my senior year of highschool) and oh my gosh, this is ridiculous
Only trombone players would understand just how difficult a piece like this is.
I had to play this for district honor band and ill tell ya its one heck of a piece
try tonguing on a saxophone. we play the same part as trombones btw
At least y'all can double tongue, the bass clarinet part on the Fennell edit is the first bone part.
Haha lol but we can't do 'CUMBIAS"

I can hear the euphoniums cutting through. 😆😆
Always has been one of my favorites!

Great video! We certainly hear this piece all the time in our house 😜But no one can play like Joe Alessi!
Silly conductor, _every song_ features the trombones!
True
It may be bad form but we like to steal the show whenever it won't severely reduce the quality of the music. (Keyword severely)
He's not just a conductor... he's Jerry Junkin...
I enjoy the guy playing the paperclip contra clarinet
This piece is so good that I almost forgot to hit the notification bell after I subscribed
That was incredible!
watching the trombones on this song is as amuzing as i thought it would be
Who is thinking about Noyas rolling thunder?
Wait a minute. Is that Trombone Timo 3rd from the left?
Yup
Glad to see another Tim fan😁😁
My highschool band is doing this peice,first trombone part is so fun on this peice, anyone got any tips or advice
Timo moment
What is breathing in this song lol
Hard

How can i find the trombone notes?

There called screamers because this song makes me want to scream as a trombone player I say ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

If you put this piece at 0.75x speed, it will sound like music to a march, not to a sprint. Otherwise, it's great.

It's a circus march, not everything is a sousa march man
@@james_subosits I know.

@@markhorton3994 Agree about the speed!
1:30
hi
Actual song is 2 minutes long but video is 6 minutes long.
Tracy Miller Very mature of you.
Doesn’t the tenor saxophone have the same part as the tenors
Muy corta la gueva mucha pérdida de tiempo en los preámbulos no obstante una excelente ínterpretacion
Not quite up to the Michigan standard.
You are absolutely right. It’s not up to the Michigan Standard. It’s much higher.

Do it better. Most of it is impeccably clean, and the parts that aren’t off-putting or unpleasantly unclean at all.
I liked it a bit slower at the beginning so you could gradually accelerando and then get ridiculous on the last time through.
