2:27 Think I found my new ringtone

As a bass trombone, tuba player and an audio engineer this is quite an immaculate performance! I don't play now but Mike's tone on tuba is what I aimed as my golden standard! Though I thought his horn was too big for the solo, he made it sing! - I can't imagine how amazing it would've sounded on a bass tuba - but the depth and presence in everything else was amazing. As for the engineer, I would've never guessed the space it was recorded in - has the reverb of a concert hall while maintaining the clean and powerful sound of close micing while being distortion free- especially the tuba!

Roylance sounds like a million bucks. Really, this whole group sounds fantastic!

Roylance and Markey make a tremendously powerful and virtuosic duo!!!! The rest of the section is remarkable too

Mike Roylance is sickeningly good... the sounds he gets out of a tuba are astounding

I'm sure there's nothing more satisfying to have such amazing players like James Markey play your music! I enjoyed this a lot.

That tuba piece is godly

dude, this is the most BADASS low brass piece I’ve ever heard 😤👌

If Toby Oft is chopping out by the end you know that part is brutal lol

Nice!

Played this for solo and ensemble my sophomore year of high school, very fun piece

Some of the most beautiful brass writing I've heard! Thanks, Kevin, for contributing such an amazing piece to our repertoire!

Listening to this through my Bose wireless headphones. This is awesome!!!!

What a brilliant piece and superbly played. Fantastic.

I love this piece so much and have a hard time stopping my self from constantly clicking on this video first. The melody is always so stuck in my head. This really feels like a reflection. A reflection of this time maybe ? Absolutely wonderful playing, one my of Favorite Low Brass Sections.

Great work and an amazing performance!

This is absolutely insane.

This is amazing Kevin!! Amazing work to you and the amazing low brass section of the BSO!! This piece is really helping me personally after the terrible news today

Hey, guys. It's a lot easier to have that much fun without all those string players getting in the way, huh? Bravo!

Nice piece and wonderful playing.

That's a great work! Wish I was still playing my trombone.

Very Nice! 🇧🇷

Better yet after multiple listening sessions which is not always true. Bravo!

YIKES!!

Um, yes!

Wow!!!!!! What a wonderful performance!!!!!! I am very happy to meet you!!!!! I am a pianist and composer, so I can study music through listening your great music!!!!!! I want to be your friend!!!! Will you??

❤️❤️❤️❤️

👏👏👏

Tenor trombone…. So versatile

👍👍👍

🔝

Great composition! As a big low brass fan, I feel this instrumentation is very under-utilized. Also, that tuba sound is rattling my windows. And I'm listening on headphones.

Just rehearsed it yesterday near Hamburg, GER. Not quite sure if like having the tenor at first position more than alto.

Dude! Brass gang am I right!?

Is there any way we can make this available to listen to on Spotify?

hey Kevin, is there a way to buy this as a pdf?

720p 😭

Is there anyone that knows what type of iPad music stand adapter Toby Oft is using? I would very much like to buy one but I can’t find anything like it.

Sounds a lot like the destiny soundtrack

Man I thought this was going to be an RKelly thing

Were y'all "socially distancing", or does somebody have a flatulence problem?

Great sound! (And they are "politically correct" via "social distancing". BUT - they ain't wearing PC masks.
