  1. I've never played a Tichlei piece. Never. and probably never will. I love his music. Symphony #2 is hard. I have the score, and it's like every part has at least one hard part.
  2. *insert tritone sound here* ah flutter tounging. I just pulled my mouthpiece almost all the way out of my mouth ( I mean there was just enough reed to make a sound) and I flutter tounged. Don't really know how I did it, but I did it.
  3. I'm trying to arrange the third Movemnt of Mahler syyphony 1 for band. it's hard. It doesn't help that it's a round. I can play the tenor sax cut on Slava better(and I'm a bari sax player) than out all state tenor player, only because I can flutter tounge on sax. and he makes Slava! sound too pretty.
  4. uhhu. and Dances from Crete, and Kingfischer cathes fire. and March (I don't know how to spell it) The 4A All state is play a piece we played last year in band. It's a freaking sweet piece.
  5. we had 2 trumpets 1 tenor sax 1 flute 1 tuba 1 f. horn. I probably will make it next year. It would be nice being the first bari sax player to make state in my school...
  6. sorry for my spelling mistake Rhapsody. If your looking for Classical, Rhapsody has the best selection of all music site thingys.
  7. You can look for it on Rhopsody for the originial, but I haven't found one of the Merlin Patterson arrangement yet.
  8. I downloaded a demo, which mean I can't save. Sometimes, I make a good drill move, and then I have exit the program and I feel bad. Just like Finale demos.... I need to get Finale bad. I haven't composed a full score in ages.
  9. David Zinman has the best recording of The Titan Symphony. Symphony #2 isn't my favorite because I don't like vocals much. I have David Zinman's recording. it's pretty decent. I'm looking for a good recording of Smyphonyies 5 and 6. The one I have is missing a lot of the percussion parts and it slightly is off pitch....
  10. High Clarinets 10(-) Low Clarinets 11(+) Saxes 6 Bassoons 12 Trumpets 11 Horns 11 Euphonium 10 Trombones 15 Tubas 10 Mallet Percussion 22 Drums 12 Auxiliary Percussion 10 Piano 15 Violin 10 Viola 5 Cello 9 Bass 10
  11. I'm jealous. I want Finale 2008 so bad. Ever since my old computer died, I haven't composed a thing But that's ok. I got clothes, money, a clandar, a puzzle, and Mahler Symphonies 1-6
  12. we got two of our UIL/midwest pieces today. They are Battle of Shiloh march Till Eulenspiegel
  13. wooo I'm 6th chair in the region. I made district oh well. I have a next year, unlike the first four people in the region.
  14. http://www.micromarching.com/show.php?showID=715 woo now to practice for region...
  15. http://www.micromarching.com/show.php?showID=491 hehe. this is fun
  16. Ahh my only phase is on Saturday and I sorta wanna make Area.... It doesn't help that they take 5 people to region and 2 to Area :E
  17. a cool thing about composers like Mackey is the fact that you can play any note at any given time in pieces like Turbine and it will sound correct. And that's hard to do.
  18. Makes sense. I hope they do another piece like Turbine.
  19. Merlin Patterson is amazing. we're probably going to do Appalachian Spring or something like that for UIL.
  20. does anyone know what TMEA is pklanning on playing for All State music? I know that one band is playing Kingfischer Catches Fire by John Mackey( Goodness, they must love him) but anyone know anymore?
  21. yeah Bell did in 2005. Alfred Watkins didn't know what it was. We heard the tapes on our busses and we laughed at that. He loved us (Richland).
  22. ketchup most definatley. Which is scarier? I have a gun and I know how to use it, or I have a gun and I don't know how to use it?
  23. I'm in it because my parents forced to. if it hadn't been for one rehearsal, I wouldn't be in band.
