I remember first playing this my sophomore year of high school. And then playing it at my last concert of high school my senior year. This will always be one of my favorite band pieces just because of my nostalgia

Fun fact: Sheldon was the director at our school for 12 years. He started our current director's senior year and quit when he started making bank from writing. He came back this year for one day to work on this with us 😄

I love when the oboe will be following the flute and clarinet and then there will be a 16th note run, so they will just give the oboe the melody cause it's easier GIVE ME THE HARD PART YOU WON'T. NO BALLS

The fact that my band, from a town of 5,000 people, beat 5 bands from the states and got gold with this song is amazing

I believe I played this my junior year of high school as one of two tuba players at the time, and the dark march near the end is absolutely S-tier, but played down an octave gives it a little bit of that extra turbo, that pizzazz, that special sauce.

Played this at ILMEA District this year. Reminds me a lot of my favorite piece, Lincolnshire Posy. A very fun tenor sax part

As a baritone player, the second movement is the scariest for me.

I played this last year as a 7th grader with the 8th graders. We recorded it along with Hands Across the Sea and The Seal Lullaby and we got into the National band festival. I'm so excited.
