I listened to my town's band orchestra play this work yesterday and it hit me really hard that I couldn't stop crying. Now I'm listening to this performance crying as well! It's so wierd how music can play our emotions without telling a word!
I first saw this video years ago. Coming back, these guys still blow me away. Outstanding performance of some wonderful music (not sure why 24 people dislike this). I hope that they are all still making music somewhere after graduating
This recording of the song is beautiful, the band does such a great job and they really nail it. Whenever I come back to listen it always sounds so moving, and it really hits me in the middle choral section.
This song has so many emotions in it. It's so beautiful you can here the emotions in the band members as they're playing it. The hard work really pays off
Yesterday I heard this work in the Auditorium of Barcelona interpreted by the Municipal Band under the direction of Jan Cober, Simply magnificent. Mr. Yagisawa has won a new fan.
omg the percussionist and flutes move with so much vigor so much energy! totally love how japanese bands move as tho they r 1 with the music... FANTASTIC!
My High school band played an arrangement of this song for marching band competition so I just want to say thank you Satoshi Yagasawa for letting us use this
About 2:40 it suddenly occurs to me that these guys are super tight. The whole thing was crazy impressive. And then -holy crap- they can really sing, too. Great performance.
I want to know what they are doing when they first start that makes them this good. I know they didn't start off playing like this but there has to be something that they specifically do that helps them be this good.
usually a good director is a start, then it's about taking everything musicians are capable of and combining all of that. The director is usually able to ensure that the band can do all of those things that they are capable of. sidenote: my band is playing this and we sound pretty darn good, but with plenty of space to grow. I go to a high school that is a Grammy Signature Gold school :)

if everybody practice much and starts to sing then it'll work
First you need to be born with the god given talent. Second you need to have a passion for the instrument you play and music like it's a part of you. And lastly you need dedication and practice but not just practice. Practicing the correct way.
A school in my area is playing that part in their marching band show, and in that part I had so many chills it was amazing. They won first place and deserved it
