Easy to forget that this is a band and not an orchestra. The self-control of the instrumentalists and the precision is admirable. Commendations to Col Bourgeois and Col. Fettig. Well done. Good for at least 16 minutes of applause!

triumphal march is a march, im not surprised if it sounds good on a band

[@patriciacacomanolis7781]

hope verdi in heaven is enjoying this

[@Tocsin-Bang]

Absolutely fantastic, sounds like a well balanced orchestra rather than a military band! The woodwinds give a fabulous richness.

[@johnbledsoe8129]

It sounds like a well balanced, professional military band!

My high school's wind ensemble performed this piece in 1999 or early 2000 I think. Though I am not sure if it was same arrangement that is being used here.

[@jessicaeernisse958]

The same black police officer made the report about the apartment being unlocked twice when I returned from walking. And when I got back from Valdosta...they had new manager and maintenance man and the new manager ran into me at the Post office where I was purchasing a money order for rent and told me to fill it out in her name!!! Things are not right and I am not safe and need to get out of here!!! But I am trusting in God and waiting for His timing.

[@Dischingo]

[@merlinpetroff6893]

careless dotted rythms. This is vocal music; why this profoundly unvocal way of treating ascending passages? Great players in search of a concept.
