I like this song very much. who is the composer? and is that an oboe doing the solos?

[RSCPT]

Eric Whitacre is the composer. And yes, that's an oboe. She's quite good in my opinion.

nice job.

[b3ti3]

beautiful... just some intonation problems and its a little harsh, killed the mood in some areas. might just be the recording device though lol

[1trumpetdude1]

How could you dislike this?

[amagicalproduction]

some intonation problems and wrong notes, needs a little more blend. some voices r sticking out. it should come with maturity.

[Zadyus]

really makes you think of october. whiteacre did a great job with this composition

[chemislife]

one of my school's bands got strait 1's on this peice

you guy's sound good (a few missed notes at most) keep it up^^

[matters9319]

I like the way the band went all out on the massive crescendos.....all the other bands on youtube seem to hold back. overall...pretty impressive, although i think a university band should have a better balance and more powerful low brass.

[matters9319]

it's a much more difficult piece than it sounds.

I have played this and other eric whitacre selections such as Sleep, Water Night, and Cloud Burst, and let me just say that his was some of the most complicated music i have ever played. Each part is so exposed that there is no faking and the intonation is insane! I LOVE Eric Whitacres genius!
