  • tenner sax and the french horn had the killer parts in this i know cuz in 8th grade i played this song u here them at 2:15 and the beginning

  • French Horn, the better of the... Clarinets... and it's more or less a duet chief. Horn and Clarinet double here.... at 2:30 the Clarinets kill a solo. Then back to a duet.

    Reppin' the horns! :)

    -Random Cellist

  • Wow...this brings back old middle school memories...

  • @XxpyrosmilexX IKR?

  • I love it! But can someone tell me where I cam find Pegasus by Michael Sweeney? Were doing it for our concert and I can't find it!

  • we played this in band everyone loved it and wanted to play it over and over again because it was so good!! <3 love it

  • I like the name. (good song too!)

  • This was my favorite song during my 7th grade year. TROMBONES!!

  • I don't know why, but this song reminds me of either A) the ending to a movie or B) a trailer to a video game.

  • I LIKE 0:00 to 4:28 SO EPIC LOL

  • Michael Sweeney and Brian Balmages need to have a "compose-itition". :D

  • I heard this at a fine arts night at my school where our band played the choir sang and there was an art show.

    They tweaked it a bit and i loved it!

  • one person wasnt able to see the sun through the mist

  • @thelegodude9492 one person couldnt break through the mist to find out the light was micheal sweeney himself as a god.

  • I played this in 8th grade and now I'm graduating high school in a few weeks...time goes by fast

  • I play trombone and it's so epic when you're playing the song... You just get lost in your own little world while playing it.... It's like your instrument is communicating with the other instruments to make a perfect "conversation".

  • @Shayna6278 you couldn't have said it better(:

  • @Shayna6278 I know what that's like, playin in for graduation

  • @Shayna6278 i love the trombone part of this.

    Its so much fun to play and i get to be really loud.

    everything you want from a piece.

  • @Shayna6278 I know EXACTLY what you mean, I also play trombone and is been a good 6 years at least since I've played this and I still miss it <3

  • Michael Sweeney is the best composer ever!

  • @tannerwise7 just below john williams

  • My band is playing this soon... (I'm an 8th grade trumpet player 2nd chair)

  • @morta1623 DUDE!! ME TOO!

    Im an 8th grade Trumpet player and Im 2nd chair! XD

  • We played this for our winter concert. wanna play it again!

  • Awesome song! My 8th grade played this song for a winter concert.

    This reminds me of the song Silent Screams by Halford. Especially at the beginning with the slow part going into the mid tempo high part.

  • TRUMPETS TRUMPETS TRUMPETS!! My band is playing this song for a concert, and everyone just loves this song!

  • We sightread this in class one day. I play all three mallet instruments :D some of the most fun I've ever had on a mallet part

  • What grade ? song is amazing and first made me tingle lol no homo though.

  • I love all of Michael Sweeney's pieces, this one was amazing! i want to hear Sax Attack sometime, since the saxes (what i play) are the best instrument ever! I was lucky and was selected to be in a state honor band, and Mr. Sweeney was the guest conductor. I got to work with him and play his song Earthdance. If you haven't heard that one yet, I highly suggest listening to it!

  • I played this in 7th grade. This song was so epic and fun to play :) Trombones destroys all.

    -♥ random flutist :)

  • ohmagawd!...I remember this! this was my favorite piece in middle school :DD

  • This piece is awesome, I am playing it for my spring concert, I play snare drum 1, it's a really difficult piece for snare, but I'm getting better!

  • Playing this for band this next concort. My trumpet playing sounds soooo tight

  • what school grade is this?

  • @deckch7 Depends on your school, the students, and your teacher. If your school plays it at a later grade then most people claim here ITS OKAY. If you have really strict and really really good teacher, and the students are good, and your school have a good history in music, it doesn't mean you played it at an earlier grade, if you pick every single detail and really want really how to put it.....strong ( sorry if I used the wrong adjective ) musicality.

  • @deckch7 Its different if you have a teacher that wants to get it over with. My school is a very prestigious music school in Ontario, Canada, and we ( grade 9s ) played it, because the teacher wants to see "what we are made out off", the school's prestigious music program have the best music students all over the district, and the best music teachers in the district, plus we have a lot of professionals come in and we go to workshops. We got everything picked and checked, EVERYTHING.

  • I play first alto saxophone in my school band, were playing this piece for our spring concert. This is an amazing piece I love it!

  • @sweetescape298 I have the score right in front of me. It's a grade 2.

  • @swimnpick My teacher also did her own interpretations ( not a whole bunch of changes though ). I am not afraid to admit to that it was tough ( in the month, it got easier as we went along, a lot easier, at first it was tough as with most songs, if you slug it out and developed good habits while avoiding bad ones no matter how minor it gets a lot easier ). It was a good song to know the people in your band and their abilities. The level is just for the piece, not the band :D It really depends :D

  • i play t-bone

    love the part where i get the meoldy (1:14)

  • Wow...we did this is 6th grade...brings back many memories...:)

  • OMIGOSH I LOVE 0:14 TO 0:40!! SO EPIC

  • i LOVE this song. and its fun. the french horn part is soo much fun to play!!! :D i never get bored. but i like it better without percussion. i like percussion a lot, but not in this piece. :)

  • i LOVE this song but personally, i think it sounds kinda cooler without percussion. :) i dunno... its just that with percussion it sounds like a back song, without it sounds reaally epic. and also when theres a rest, percussion plays, and it sounds cooler when theres just silence in the rest.
