  • Bravo. Simply beautiful.

  • This is sorta wierd, at the beginning people didn't know where to breathe which i felt made a lot of gaps :/

  • @TheJoeistall00 well we would just work on it until it wasnear perfect. it was brutal

  • @saxboi94 yeah same...i played the euphonium part on this but i play treble clef because im a converted trumpet player...my teacher wound up just having certain instruments begin with that A because most of the brass couldnt get it

    but the euphonium solo/with trumpet is the greatest thing ever ahah

  • when we were working on this song for uil it was so hard getting that first not to start at the same time. i hated it because i play tenor saxophone and my note was an A which at the time was very hard to air start

  • Great performance! Your horn(s) are really talented. Hitting that Bb above the staff is no easy feat but they nailed it.

  • @nj14devilsfan30

    where could I find that recording?

    thanks

  • @saxboi94,

    I believe you are referring to the fact that in the same version you are playing, there is an option for "special alto saxophone", which is the same as the soprano saxophone part, but just transposed for an alto saxophonist to play it.

  • For the people that played colonial song their are two versions on written by grainget and the other is edited the one that is edited has the soprano part that's the one I'm playing

  • my favorite recording of this piece is by the royal northern college of music wind orchestra conducted by timothy reynish. it runs 6:12 and everything is so expressive and the sax solo is amazing. the whole album probably has my favorite recordings of the selected grainger works they do, especially colonial song, irish tune from county derry and molly on the shore
