  • Barnes came to my university and I had the privilege to play this piece under his direction. During intermission he came out to the smoking area with myself and a few friends and he jokingly said to us - "So this is the lepper colony?" He was a cigar guy. Love this music - it will always have a special place in my heart

  • The Symphony is nicknamed 'The Tragic' not this specific movement...this movement is about the birth of Barnes' son, Billy, shortly after the death of Barnes' daughter, Natalie.

  • Best HORN PART EVER in Symphonic Literature. I've played this song 5 different times, and it never gets old.

  • @VenomEmperor

    I've played this piece and I don't remember it being called "The Tragic" If anything that title belongs to the third movement. This piece was made for his newborn soon who came soon after the passing of Barnes' daughter Natalie.

  • it is meant to be. It's a jubilant piece to celebrate life, that despite death, suffering and tragedy, we have to celebrate the overcoming of suffering. That was his intention in this movement.

  • For something in which the title is "The Tragic," this seems too victorious and happy.
