Bass bone is just designed to lay out the ensemble with raw power when the composer/arranger wants it. They put us on a handicap by having only one of us in any and all ensemble settings.
Best movement of the piece. Sitting in front of the bass Trombone player wasn't so fun though. We played it in symphonic band. Thankfully my eardrums were blown by the lead alto playing the initial solo on bagpipes 😂
mudskipper this band doesn’t exist anymore, it folded after losing sponsorship from Yorkshire Building Society in 2004 and became Hammonds Saltaire Band in 2009
Can we at least get the title correct. It's Hymn OF the Highlands. It's even shown on the video itself correctly. If someone is googling or searching youtube for it they won't find it.
We are playing this with the local fanfare but we dont have violins, wich I think is a bit to the sad side because it would add a nice thing to everything.
