Eastman Wind Ensemble -- Bach: Toccata and Fugue in D minor

[anniers7]

Jimsuperkid, by cutting out a part they improved the piece - there were just too many notes.

@anniers7 My highschool band is about to perform this with no cuts, so im pretty sure they could have played it all. oh well lol

Amazing Bass Trombone....very controlled

All pieces in the baroque period were amazing escpecialy this

Beautifully, cleanly played...typical of Eastman. I took post-graduate conducting there, and discovered just how horrible I was.

[jimsuperkid]

there are the three parts to organ music, but i hardly hear all three parts played out... why would anyone transpose it for a wind ensemble and cut out parts?

such clean playing. very tight all around. woodwinds are so well in sync on the arpeggios. bravo!

I want to go to college at Eastman so bad! The whole school is amazing, particularly this band. ;)

@flutegirly321 I know, but it's really tough to get in to. I know. I tried.

[flutegirly321]

@TheHambone12 Yes, I know it's tough, but that's why I'm working extremely hard now....so it'll pay off later on.

How wonderful to see young people spending their time, money and their lives learning to do these things so well!
