[GeorgieBananas]

i'm playing this at my school and i'm first flute and i have the Flute solo at 2:31 - 2:35 ! :D

this song is Awesome!

Frank Ticheli is a truly Talented Composer:)

[MiniMaciosek]

Played this in honor band in 8th grade. It's too bad that I only started to really appreciate music sophmore year. I would give so much to play this just once again.

P.S: If only that squeak wasn't there at 2:08

[emilyanneyo]

playing this~

[bandhornfishingnerd1]

playing this in owasso 8th grade, GO FRENCH HORNS!!!!

[werty128259]

My high commissioned this. We just comisioned a saucedo piece. Look up ostinato longmont high school. That one was fun

[gunnut442]

saxes rule

[erikabunko]

We played this two years ago and I still remember how to play [flute] parts of it! Ticheli is for sure one of my FAVORITE composers!!

[WindxIsxEverywhere]

Its a nice piece... To me it sounds like copypasta from joy... :l

[sistersforever32]

played this for a concert piece and a 1...yeah buddy! this is the real music!

[Happyjuice912]

real music =)

[Awesomeman207]

im a sixth grader and im playing this

[dxiloveu]

You could barely hear the oboe D:

[2010Kraftwerk]

@dxiloveu THANK GOD!

[frizz148]

played this last year. 1st trumpet all the way!!! really enjoyed playing it

[ashabanana22]

it's all about the bassoon :)

[MrSoGeeky]

Trumpets!! :D

[Agentof21]

my school is doin this 2 these guys sound is lighter. Trombones are more prominent in mine

[xMeNomCupcakesx]

Bass clarinets all the way! >:D Ever-forgotten but ever-awesome x3

[Rocktail012]

@xMeNomCupcakesx Hells yeah! Bass clarinet all the way <3

[JohnLaurain]

Here, 7th grade is our 3rd year of playing, I would think you would play it 4th year in 8th

[ExplicitNoonan]

@JohnLaurain or in high schol even

[KrazieDawgman]

We're doing an arrangement of this for my HS marching band

[mixedculturegurl]

we are doing this song right now in my 7th grade concert band! it is a fun song

[radrichy]

Were playing this in my 8th grade with colnel bogey hynmsong of phllip blyss and digital prism

[powsplatboom]

Wait, you payed it in 7th grade?!?!? how early did you guys start your bands where you were? 7th grade's a real rooky band in my experience to be playing something like this.

[Raineyes538]

Ah memories :) I played this in 7th grade in my Symphonic band.

[chocorisha]

I love the responding parts. Ticheli is an amazing composer.

[Jessica117171717]

awsome piece, played it at an honorband my sophmore year, simply lovely :) ~altosaxrocks~

[MusicIsLife9091]

I marched this song freshman year! memories <3

[AsianSnowybrick]

1:43 Harry Potter? :D

[101koley1]

amazing peace! thanks for posting!

[101koley1]

love the song! thanks for posting it!

[samghmaster]

amazing peice :D i love the constant change of moods- kinda like it has ADD. this song is so much fun to play (TRoMBONE FOR THE WIN)

[Scene141]

@SaturdayNight4112 I so agree!! 3rd part is boring!!

[itshardtomakeupnames]

@Scene141 3rd Part is the Root of the chord though and is probably one of the most important parts to play.

[chocorisha]

I really enjoy Ticheli as a composer. His music is fun, exciting, and has a variety of sounds.

[SwiftSwiper]

It's amazing that our 7th and 8th Symphonic band's playing this. We started with Crusade (sightread it practically), then Joy (which we aced at UIL), then after we made our teacher literally cry tears of Joy, she got us this.

[kyuubisharinan3296]

i played this a long time ago in middle school

[nikesb97]

my high school might play this song.

[Releasedaura1]

Javer@ what is your school

[SorugaoBandGeek]

THIS SONG!!

We played it for marching season my freshman year, second best song of the show that I liked to play. Got to say this song is absolutely amazing - though the concert one sounds much better [and delicate] than the marching one. x) heh. Mr. Ticheli, I tip my hat to you for being such a great composer!

[javierregino2]

im in 7th grade in my schools top band and we played this for uil and got straight ones on everything no 2s even on sightreading

[Releasedaura1]

Aledo?

[Releasedaura1]

I am in 7TH GRADE and I am playing this song or uil!!!!!

[hijk665]

We played this song for UIL and we got a one (: Along with Valdres March and Heavens Light :)

[btambe19]

2 ppl didnt want to revisit the joy!

[killerbear1996]

Playing this song for big contest and it is awesome

[Swimalex789]

Haha i just knew by looking at this song that sascha would comment:)

[justinmcfarland100]

Do Trumpets do much in this song compared to the regular joy?

[officialkylahicks]

Love this song I'm second trumpet and we played this song for contest and the judges said we were the best they heard all day we got straight one's!!!

[FlamingRain231]

We played Joy for our winter concert and we're playing Joy Revisited for our spring concert! I'm first clarinet part and I love this song so much!

[600bri]

i love this one!! i played this for my 7th grade year and it wsa amazingg!!!

[musicfreaksh4ne]

Alto FTW!

[supaafro]

played this song for a competition easily one of the best songs ive heard but dont let the tempo get the best of you

[dellabitzke]

We are playing this for contest. I play first trumpet, and let me tell you. This song is the easiest of the 3 songs we are playing.

[MasterVooDoo652]

We played this for our High School Band last year and it was just an honor to play this beautiful piece. :)

[pyrobombs]

Amazing, but these trombones piss me off :x

[gerbil545]

OMG GET THIS SONG OUT OF MY HEAD

[24kambre]

its a nice song just some partsin the song just gets a little nasty with sound but it was kept lively it truly was joy revisited

[bobert2422]

its an awsome song

[BandGeek11011]

we played this durring honor band a few years back and it was awesome...ah how much I missed this piece.

[Vanguard41xx]

We are played this for our honors band. So much fun.

[crguy3]

it sounds almost EXACTLY like Joy DX

[csrac23]

this is a fun tune to play especially in clarinet!

[PotatoeShinz]

We're playing this for District 9-10th. As a 10th grade advanced bander I think this is extremely easy..then again I play bass clarinet. ;P

[hp71196]

@PotatoeShinz I played this at an 8th grade clinic we learned and performed this in 2 days it is an easy pice for any instrument

[TheEricaaa23]

This piece is awesome! I'm in the top band at my school (8th grade btw) and we are playing this piece for UIL this year and it's absolutely great! :D

It's A LOT more fun than Joy.

[carolyncarnage]

I played Joy at a summer band camp between 6th and 7th grade, and I'm playing Joy Revisited this year. My junior year. It's a fun piece, but too simple for a high school band to be playing.

[pokeguy102]

i am in 6th grade and i played joy for the winter concert, and i just got joy revisited to learn for the spring concert.

[Smoojulia]

Playing this song right now in band

[trophy2220]

@Smoojulia me too

[greenshayla18]

love the song but i dont really see how it has anything to do with child birth. my fellow band mates thought there should be some sort of epic part for the actual birth, but to me this song seems to portray a cartoon version where the stork drops the baby in some crazy way that it goes through a strange journey to end up on its parent's doorstep. thats just my thoughts

[FlamingRain231]

@greenshayla18 When I think of this song I think of the child's christmas for some reason.

[MrEedev]

@samthemusicman1 me too!

[carloz960]

my band is playing that for honors and were bearly in middle school

[awertomg]

played this a year ago at an honor band gig. i wasn't too fond of playing it but i did love listening to it.

[ericfinneganpwnage]

symphonic band played this (juniors and seniors), it was amazing!

[msashp14]

I played this in 7th grade, I love Ticheli. (:

[MeAshesFlyingBy]

i am playing this piece in 8th now its hell of a hard piece but i love it'!!

[youneedajob1]

we so did an arrangement of this for marching season and baby we made straight ONES!!!! THATS HOW ALTUS DOES IT!!!! TAB!!!!

[kville105125]

This is wayyyyy better than the original tune, IMHO :)

[CanyonJaguarBand]

wow this brings bak so many memories .. playing this in middle school (7th or 8th) was pretty challenging and plaing it at a fast tempo :) was a fun piece :D

[Bluerage98]

Trombones all the way!

[dpgirl101]

@Bluerage98 agreed!!!

[Otherworldly101]

I love the first alto sax part to this piece. :D

[AHHSBand]

@Otherworldly101 HAHAHAHA YES!!!!!!!

[Nyame1997]

Our Junior High Band is playing this for our Christmas Concert!!

[KawaiiMangaArtist]

@Nyame1997 High fives Ciara! :D

[vergaramauro]

such an easy and enjoyable piece!

Anaheim High School played this my

junior year.

[andyydna101]

wow this is so much better than the first one!!!

[Snglemanband]

This song is excellent! I remember playing my freshman year!

[1objection]

wow somebody was so dazzled by this amazing song, they lost all motor control of their body and clicked dislike.

[DeclanGalbraithHD]

this is such a good piece . will never forget the day we played it !!!! :) how i loved middle school ! :)

[freezii999]

wow. this is WAY better than Joy. lmao. Hannah got the short end of the stick (i hope some of you understood that reference)

[WhitneyLaughAlot02]

@freezii999 HAHAHA!!! That's awful, but so true! 

[1whiteiphone]

i absolutley love the dynamics

[asherrench]

we play this and i'm in 7th grade lol

[andy78624]

my highchool band tryed to play this song but it was to diffucult at the time

[lightningchaser93]

i remember when my concert band performed this piece last year, such a fun piece to play! :)

[darkra01]

Just played this in a concert last night

[1whiteiphone]

WE played this and two other songs for UIL and we got SWEEPSTAKES... ahh Wednessday 14, of April 2010 i shall never forget, ahh

[1whiteiphone]

@1whiteiphone i forgot

[narutosasuke1994]

[yuuzang]

ive played this before, loved it

[alexascrappy]

My band's playing this @ our UIL competition. :D

[maskedhero]

Hehe, my band hated playing this song back in the day. Often, people in my section would wonder why anyone would "revisit" this song. XD I find it funny. I think the song is cute.

[CommentingPhantomess]

Playing this in a youth orchestra at the moment-- it's so fun!

[MrMec3]

i played this song last year it was so much fun!

[egenin]

I just played this a few hours ago XD

[PvtRyan2]

my 8th grade varsity is playing joy revisited for our UIL piece

[JonasLover109]

omg i love this song so much i love how its fast my fav part . i play trumpet and i luv this tune !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Iztenstein]

There isn't a piccolo part to this song, is there? Because I would loath to play this song with the hideous screech of a piccolo. x.x

[ichewongum]

yes there is (:

[JonasLover109]

omg at my skool we are learning how to play this i luv this song.. i luv band !!!!!!!!!!

[Jiwhight123]

We get to play this this year for our high school's band Christmas Concert =D

[dudeness0001]

Last year, my high school's band played this song at the same time that the 8th grade played Joy. the band directors didnt plan anything

[narutofan123332]

@dudeness0001 i had a similar experiance. i lived in florida last year, i now live in Indiana, last year in Florida we played this song in the band, and apparently they played the same song in the band im in now in Indiana at the same concert (spring concert)...its a small world

[darksoul11ful]

@dudeness0001 I play the Baritone saxophone in my band I am in 7th grade and we are playing this piecev for contest

[liberalgirl118080]

I'm playing the regular joy 2 night for a concert with all three major bands!! its gonna be kewl

[mrrepublican1021]

@liberalgirl118080 SHUT UP LIBERAL

[liberalgirl118080]

@mrrepublican1021 , oh as if conservatives are any better in morals or governement.........and what are you refering to? my liberal stature or that i played joy in a concert??

[TheEhrenSchultz]

Why does it even matter? Can you just not spam someone based upon their screen name and enjoy the music? Or do you have to do this because you lack the intelligence to actually enjoy anything but flaming people on YouTube?

[skzizle14]

yes this song is amazing, i also played the regular version for honor band. it was an amazing experience.

[dogsandguitars]

This song is so cool! I played the regular joy version last year! I still have it memorized:)
