Phoenix Rising by Gary P. Gilroy 

This is supposed to be my freshman year show but I'm moving this summer. To all y'all in Guthrie, Oklahoma that actually read the comments, Go Bluejays! Do great this season!!

Its hard to believe that its been six years since I played this wonderful piece. Such wonderful memories

This song is just absolutely amazing with that accelerando throughout for a few minutes!!!!! :D

This was my freshman year show. We placed 3rd at our state performance. This year we are playing Corazon Partido. I love both of them!

This song brings back so many memories, the good and the bad, including getting 1st at a marching competition at a college stadium

Played this for our show last year. So much fun! We got 9th in the whole state! Tenor sax part was really fun to play

We're marching this this year and it is so awesome to stand in the band room playing the bells while the while band soars around me.

hello Mr Gilroy, I played your composer charged for oak grove high school thank you for the beautiful music and hopefully you come to san jose once more.

This was my show this year! I play for the perkins highschool band in the state of Ohio and we qualified for state! This show means a lot to me and many others thanks for being a amazing composer

This is a phenomenal marching show!!! I'm going to Ridgevue High School in Idaho this year, and it's a brand new school. For the first marching season for the Ridgevue Warhawks, we're playing this awesome show! I'm playing the xylophone, chimes, and cortales and couldn't be more excited. Our first competition is in Pasco, Washington on October 1st, and I'm looking forward to it!!! Awesome job on this show!!!!!!!!!!

Both years in marching band we've played ur songs last year was paranormal and this year this one and I can't wait to see the mellophone part

I know I am late with this but we played this for my ninth grade year in high school placed 4th in championship. We were 0.4 points off 3rd. This show is all around amazing

Playing this for our marching show, it's really fun learning it on mallets

This is our show for this year, i am really looking forward to playing it

played this last year got us 3rd in state for our division

This was our show this year sure will miss my first marching band show

I remember being on the bass line for this show my freshman year... I forgot how intense this was! Crazy that that was three years ago!

The woodwind feature in the ballad is so cool and i love it........ also the woodwindish feature in the first part of the show is pretty nice too....... i say that because i am a woodwind..... deal with it.

Just got done With our season, last Friday the 28th was state for us. The band and I really liked this show, Good job! P.S. GO Pit!!!!!!!!

This is my show this year

I played this my sophomore year. Part 3 is my favorite.

Played this at a national, place 25th. This has such a great lead.

This is my current show and bass drum 3 (we only have 3 bass drums in the drumline) DOESN’T KNOW HIS FUCKING MUSIC. It’s a good show btw. I’m in the Carteret High school Marching Band From Carteret, NJ. Go ramblers!

Playing this for this season! I'm so hyped, it's wonderful! I almost screamed in class when our teacher played the video for us lol

I'm so excited for this year's show!! I have the trombone duet at the beginning and are so ready!!! Great job on the music

I'm so excited! This is going to be my show in the upcoming season.

Pretty good

I wish I was the one choosing my school's marching band shows. I'd pick either this one or Paranormal first. Two of my favorites, closely followed by Western Side Story.

Movement 1 - 0:10 Movement 2 - 3:20 Movement 3 - 5:40

Omg our show this year

sophomore year show for me

I'm going to drum major for this show next season

I'm conducting this next year, i'm so excited!

Im pit section leader and just found out this our show for next season

I'm on tenors for this next year

I played this song for my high school in 7th grade

playing electric bass on this🤘🤘

We played this last summer and made it to Areal Finals

i play snare for this. for this year show

Phs state bound 38th time in 39 years

OH OK THIS IS A GOOD ONE only issue, by the sword has the same issues, the percussion (both battery and snare) parts are a bit lackluster (not nearly as bad as by the sword tho) Thank god we have John Dunlap

O

Our bassline is hoping to kill this piece definitely a good test of musicianship

McNary kids if you're here where you at? 😛
