We're doing this for our brass quintet now. I'm a tuba, any suggestions on how i should keep count? i know the other people go by 2's but i kinda find 4's more befitting since i got quarter notes
@brogan5 I played it last year as a chamber brass piece. I play trombone,I cant double tongue but we played it at a normalish tempo. A lot of fun to play. I still play my part for fun.
Nice job! Great balance. My group's recording is a bit muddled but have a listen will you and give me your thoughts? Brass quintets rock!! watch?v=iZ9hQSjKxbM
I did this piece last year for solo ensemble as a double reed quartet. two oboes, an english horn, and a bassoon. it turned out really nice! this is also a really great version.
Awesome! Well done! I got goose bumps. I played 1st chair trumpet in high school and our quintet played this as well. Got a I rating in the area school competition. Good times!
All your songs were a pleasure to listen to, definitely professional caliber, good intonation, blend and musicality. I'd love to play in a quintet like this.
That is so ironic! I did the same thing playing the tuba part on Bass trombone. (We also were the only ones to get a 1; in Texas, too. I think it was 2007) .
We played this for our State solo and Ensemble last year unfortunately. We had a piece already selected, but our band director made a mistake and it turned out to be a quartet! We ended up taking fifth in the Washington State Solo and Ensemble competition though. And we have another one coming up. We're going to be burning! And we're doing a trumpet quartet along with a solo I'm performing! Whew! Busy year!
My freshmen year we played this piece and made a one at state with me playing first trumpet, a pregnant sophomore as second trumpet, and seniors playing tuba horn and trombone. When we had finished the judge said that he hoped we planed on continuing our musical currier, as in continue playing our instruments for fun, and I laughed because the seniors were reluctant to even come and the sophomore was going to quit band.
I played this my Junior year in Highschool as Tuba. We would've gone to state, but our first trumpet decided "Oh, no, I'm not going to go" and we couldn't train a new one in time.
Nice job. I played this in high school three years ago during my sophomore year with a brass quintet. I played first trumpet. You guys actually had a good french horn player. lol. Great job to all of ya.
I'm doing this for my school. I play French horn. I know it's not that hard, it's just the counting is weird for me. So, any helpful tips?

Is there a way to get the "three 16th notes in a row" simultaneous?
Our quintet is having even more trouble than yours.
TIA

And what's the probability of 2 players having with names beginning with Z just by chance? :-D

Its a manner of "conducting" the ensemble, if you will

@HighbulpIII it sets the tempo. you dont do it at performance, but it is more than ok to do it at rehearsals

The horn player keeps rushing

The trumpets keep dragging. The horn is emphasizing the first sixteenth too much.
