UTHS SYMPHONIC BAND: The Hounds Of Spring - Alfred Reed

[doinkusamongus]

Man, I have such great memories of UT. I was in the class of '71. I didn't belong to the band but took choir and other music classes under Mr. Donald Dyer. What a wonderful music instructor he was. He really loved and knew music. I joined the Army in later '71 and went to Panama for a year and a half. Good experience also. Landed in Texas, then in California where I have lived since. I miss the Quad Cities. My heart will always be there. Michael Bryant.

trust me, he is very into what he does, I guess you just have to be in the band to know how he feels, but he is very well known throught the midwest and surrounding areas.

[BubblyBananna]

Well played.

[cdnsma04]

This is awesome! I'm an '03 graduate and still a band geek! I played trombone, but I only got into concert band; I wasn't good enough for symphonic, lol.

[SaxyMan93]

I love playing this piece! We're doing in in concert festival coming up in march. I'm excited.

[chuyito009]

the national concert band festibal(BOA)?

[jazziesax]

The chorale section is too fast, but besides that, it was an excellent performance. The group's strength is balanced evenly through the sections, making the band overall very good.

[kevito666]

Tempo is a little fast in the intro, is it not? Just a tad too short to hear the chords resonate...

Good playing, regardless.

[littleReid]

Wow, that was pretty good! We are playing this piece this year for Concert Festival.

Just wondering, but does this school happen to be located in East Moline, Illinois?

[chuyito009]

yes

[littleReid]

Cool! My mom graduated from this school in '77. Most of my family still lives in the Quad Cities.

[steevo7111]
