  • That final chord means that shit 'bout to go down. Then just when the juicy part comes up, Grainger nervously whisks us away to the heroic acts of Lord Melbourne in the next movement. (If only to give the people in this drama a bit of privacy.)

  • So glad I wasn't a woodwind playing this... :o

  • lol people saying this piece has a boring part for them.. come try out tuba! xD

  • The clarinet part is so fun! Haha

  • do i hear a soprano in there?

  • @PiccoloBoy15 I always interpreted that last section as the brisk young sailor realizing that his love had cheated on him, but yours is very funny

  • @PiccoloBoy15 I know the song is titled "Brisk Young Sailor" but everyone in my band class found the version I did to be really funny.

  • This is how I broke the song up in order to learn it...

    Start - 0:31 = Portly gentlemen walking through a field, slightly buzzed.

    0:32 - 0:45 = Portly gentlemen now dawn dresses and frilly skirts and spin around like ballerinas

    0:46 - 0:59 = Back to walking, but now slightly more drunk

    1:00 - 1:09 = They all began tripping and falling over

    1:10 - 1:20 = They all fall and roll down a hill

    1:21 - End = They're crying because they lost their beer and wine during the fall down the hill

  • god i hate this movement -.- the only movement that makes me wish i wasn't a flute player

  • UNT!! I LOVE MY MUSIC SCHOOLLLLL!!!
