You don´t play a Waltz in the same 3/4 way of a mexican song.Why do you play the Paso-Doble like a militar march.The Paso-doble is a dance,have you attemped dancing a Paso-doble with this speed? It´s imposible!!!!!! Please respect the piece instructions. Thanks.good morning from Spain.excuse me for my english

i played this song in a honor band, i totally think its alot better way faster. (but i am mostly biased for i play the euphonium and we rarely get fun parts like in this song)
We are playing this song for Graduation today. Its a badass song, no doubt. We played it when our band was in San Antonio for our Music Trip. And we played it for our concert this last month. We took it at a tempo of 265bpm. It was insane. What tempo did all of you guys take it at? And towards the end, my band took it down to about 60bpm then went all the way back up to 265bpm up to the last measure. It was really intense. What are your thoughts??
Trumpets (around 1:45) need to come in MUCH FREAKING LOUNDER PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is the pinnacle for the brass in this peice! Plus it is too slow.
WAYYY to slow. 140 BPM is ideal in my opinion. It's marked vivace. This is terribly muddy though, so rehearsing slower and kicking it up to speed would be necessary. A ritardando at 1:52 would be nice, hold the chord at 1:58. And really get things cooking (about 155 BPM) from there until the end. Overall decent job.
Also during that "flute solo", if I hadnt played the piece before I wouldnt even know that was there because of these sucky trumpets. And that section near the end that is supposed to be triumphant was a disaster. Clarinets were playing wrong notes and way too loud, especially at 1:50 (If you click 1:50, it will take you to 1:52, so go to like 1:48). And then on the re-entrance of that glorious melody somebody squeaked...LOUD. And the high note at 2:04 was unbelievably out of tune.
@mw2god1234 It wasn't perfection... but wouldn't you think you're being a tad critical? Like to the point of being a complete dick on the Internet, no offense?
Were these guys trying to go too fast? Because it's really obvious that this isnt working out for them. Intonation is god awful, I cant hear half of the ensemble because people are panicking because of the tempo and as a result forget any advanced skills just so they can keep up with the tempo. This isnt a question of what march tempo is or how fast this piece should be played, this band just cant handle this tempo. But I dont blame them because I think this is way too fast.
This was very good :) but the french horns were EXTREAMLY sharp :(( (im a french horn player) good job trumpets and flutes :)) but UGH C'MON HORNS!!!! :P this hurts me v.v lol and the tempo I think was a tad too fast lol marches are usually fast but not that fast....it should be around 110 lol but otherwise that was very clean :)
132 bpm? Ridiculous......this recording at this tempo is muddy and cluttered, one reason you can't hear the flutes. I'll take a slower pace, say around 108 bpm so all the parts can be clearly heard and the piece cleanly played.
There are different styles of Spanish pasodoble: military pasodoble, bullfight pasodoble, etc. And Amparito Roca it's not a military march, so it should be played at a slower tempo, as it is a pasodoble composed to be played during bullfights, not during military parades.
@mboschm Okay, as I have previously mentioned: This piece is a Spanish march; and as others have said: "Music is subjective so you can play it any way you want to." If you don't like it there is a thousand recordings you can listen to. Less negativity, more positivity?
im my opinion it was a bit slow could have done alot more dynamics the trio was too loud the( loudest insturement should have been the flute) the coutermelody was tooo soft i wouldnt have been able to hear the moving parts in the dog fight if it wasnt for the trumpet dogfight wasnt agressive over alll it was ok wouldve been way better if you would have did more than just play notes and rhythms but shaped it made you softs alot softer and the louds alot louder but it was alright i guess
music is subjective you can play it anyway you want to. some people may think it needs to be one way while others another. so stop fighting and enjoy the way this specific directer chose his band to play it
Too fast. This is a pasodoble, a popular spanish dance. Very usual in bullfighting and popular parties. It's the favorite dance to old people. Hahaha I imagine old people dying of heart attacks dancing in this tempo.
In my opinion I think it is a bit fast too. I live in Valencia (Spain), where it's very typicall play this awesome song, and normally we play it more slowly, but in general it's ok. Congratulations!
You guys were great! The perfect tempo, dynamics, and keys! Don't listen to anyone who says it's too fast, it just right! IT'S A MARCH FOR PETE'S SAKE! Keep it up, definitely a Superior.
sounds great, but its 1. Too fast, and at 1:21 you cant even hear the important parts, in fact, through most of it, you cant hear whats important....great sound, but dynamics need work
@GruntHappyStudios OMG! Tell me about it! You get so used to playing backround stuff, them we have the melody! I was frazzled being first chair and having that responibility. But college is now better than my old high school band. I miss that stuff.
I love this song, but my part was 2nd clarinet. The part was so annoying and boring to play since it was just mostly a bunch of notes on the up-beat. haha.
@wizardjedipirate I sort of agree. The tempo for this is supposed to be fast. although there are some slower versions of this, this piece sounds its best at this tempo.
@vizhtor77 How can you say this is a terrible version? not to be rude and intervene but music has many styles. One piece of music can be varied in many ways. That's what is so great about music. Whether you've grown up to this piece or not, it is interesting and wonderful to hear many versions on one piece. So I don't think it's terrible or bad at all.
This is the correct tempo...well it depends on fast the band can play it....most high school band directors take it slower than normal for contest(evaluation). the tempo says vivace which everyone knows as ballsy fast.
Way too fast, it should be played at about 140. the woodwind part in the beginning with the run sounds pitchy:\ The flute solo REALLY needed to stand out, and the rest of the band should've played under it because the flute has the solo. Also, everone needs to blend to eachother, not stand out so much:\. Over all, its okk.. :) constructive critism? :)
This is TOO FAST...when bands try to play at this tempo all but the very best of them sound cluttered and muddy. You can barely hear the flutes which are an important part of this number...Slow it down and go for accuracy, not speed.
We played this...It is really fun for me (super small town btw) because I play the flute part on the violin in the band (did I mention small town) and we BOOK this song along lol. Every violinist's dream, lots of fast, easy, fun notes. (Small town =900 people). Why didn't I ever learn flute? I could never play an instrument that requires blowing into it... Lol just not that good
i play this song in my band 2! and we played it with a bunch of high skooler and we took it evn fastr than that AND sped it up at the end 2 where it wuz i think about 250 at the end!
I know its supposed to be played a lot slower than this, but I've played this piece several times and honestly the only time it was enjoyable was when it was this tempo. It just feels right! Especially the solo clarinet part! Just gotta kick it up haha
the key change at 0:51 everyone needs to stfu lol. can barely hear the upper woodwinds which is really important there. Need to expand your dynamics though. everything seems to just be loud. But over all it sounds real good
This song is really fun at this speed, especially for trombone in my opinion. unfortunately, my bands trumpets suck so we cant go this fast, but it is still fun to play.
It's not all that easy for low brass to play any faster than this...for woodwinds it's easy to articulate the faster, unless your like a professional tuba player, its STILL really hard to articulate that fast at 1:48. to cinnamon39 and suprakilla2JZ, yall are woodwind instruments. if you want to play this songer fAsTeR, than try playing a trombone or a tuba or a seusaphone, and see how eAsY iT iS!!! my band played it and we rocked it EVEN AT A SLOW TEMPO!
they are playing somewhere between 152 and 160. which, as the piece says to be played, is vivace.
get out your metronomes and check...
vivace varies, so it doesn't matter how fast or slow it is, so long as it is vivace. it doesn't make you any better to play it faster or slower, a true musician will tell you that.
160 is a bit too fart stylistically. That's more of a circus march tempo. As a Spanish march, it's meant to be more dignified (think bull fighters), which means a little slower.
@mangofreek Well, maybe in a case of a pasdoble, which has a very "fixed" tempo, vivace means just a wee bit faster, something around 130 bpm and a "lighter" and "lifeful" character.
This might shock you, but the composer isn't always right. As a composer I can say that composers fault just as often as a conductor or performer.
In most settings the conductor, the interpretor, is the persons who word must be followed, the composer only suggests, but the conductor who knows his band more completely makes the final adjustments
mmmmmm i love this fast and slow >:D

Eh
I think if it were a tad slower, it would be better. NOT SAYING IT'S BAD HERE, because it certainly isnt :P
maybe im just bias becuase we didnt play it this fast

I know its supposed to be played a lot slower than this, but I've played this piece several times and honestly the only time it was enjoyable was when it was this tempo. It just feels right! Especially the solo clarinet part! Just gotta kick it up haha

the key change at 0:51 everyone needs to stfu lol. can barely hear the upper woodwinds which is really important there. Need to expand your dynamics though. everything seems to just be loud. But over all it sounds real good

This song is really fun at this speed, especially for trombone in my opinion. unfortunately, my bands trumpets suck so we cant go this fast, but it is still fun to play.

It's not all that easy for low brass to play any faster than this...for woodwinds it's easy to articulate the faster, unless your like a professional tuba player, its STILL really hard to articulate that fast at 1:48. to cinnamon39 and suprakilla2JZ, yall are woodwind instruments. if you want to play this songer fAsTeR, than try playing a trombone or a tuba or a seusaphone, and see how eAsY iT iS!!! my band played it and we rocked it EVEN AT A SLOW TEMPO!

they are playing somewhere between 152 and 160. which, as the piece says to be played, is vivace.
get out your metronomes and check...
vivace varies, so it doesn't matter how fast or slow it is, so long as it is vivace. it doesn't make you any better to play it faster or slower, a true musician will tell you that.
mangofreek 2 years ago
160 is a bit too fart stylistically. That's more of a circus march tempo. As a Spanish march, it's meant to be more dignified (think bull fighters), which means a little slower.

@mangofreek Well, maybe in a case of a pasdoble, which has a very "fixed" tempo, vivace means just a wee bit faster, something around 130 bpm and a "lighter" and "lifeful" character.

This might shock you, but the composer isn't always right. As a composer I can say that composers fault just as often as a conductor or performer.
In most settings the conductor, the interpretor, is the persons who word must be followed, the composer only suggests, but the conductor who knows his band more completely makes the final adjustments
