My high school wind ensemble is playing this :) I'm really excited because we rotate parts and for this piece I'll be playing 3rd clarinet (I usually play 1st) but this piece is amazing and I love all the parts :) Siciliano is my favorite but Rondo is awesome because 3rd clarinet and the other lower register instruments are the power house of that part.
@cynthiayl12 Yes they are. My high school band is playing this. The part for the maracas is very punctual and on-the-beat. I have no idea what this guy was doing.
So we're playing this in band this year and it's amazing :]
This i'd say by far is the best recording I've found on YouTube..the trumpet solo towards the end of Siciliano could have had more air behind the sound. The Alto solo in that movement was beautiful. Makes me damn proud to be one of the Saxes.
Wow. Wonderful job. We just started working on this for a thing up in Indianappolis and it's SO HARD for a middle school band to play. I honestly think that Rondo is IMPOSSIBLE. LOL
my high school wind ensemble blows you guys away......... trumpet solo was bad!

Siciliano made me cry a little while I was rehearsing in my wind ensemble.

Ah, I remember playing this! It's so surreal to start humming your instrument's part after all these years... love it.

Rondo is the end of me and my band. Hahah, we can do the beginning of Rondo but those 16th notes at C are a bass finger killer.

Am I the only one who thinks the maracas in the beginning of Siciliano sound really awkward and out of place?

@cynthiayl12 They do sound a little odd, they have no place being the piece.
