SCORE STUDY EPISODE #4: INCANTATION AND DANCE 

wow what a slapstick part

LMAO!!!! the "visual" at m.m. 7O was PERFECT!!!! HAHAHAHA!😁

One of the first original works for band (1960) to have extremely prominent percussion parts. Great composition!

Lol at first I kept thinking JBC = Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger. I didn't realize until halfway through that you were referring to the composer.

that was really well done. I always liked this piece, but I feel I understand it a bit better now that you have shown some of secrets behind the music!

7:05

Loved the Batman slap! Perfectly illustrated!

Wow, this piece! As a clarinet player in high school, I truly discovered how to stagger breathe during that looooooooonnnnng chord! Well done, sir.

FYI, this recording was done by the Keystone Wind Ensemble, conducted by Jack Stamp

5:24 when the trumpets hit goddamn that's good

We played this for state adjudication while in high school, i can still disbelief in the judges voice when our band director handed him his copy of the score. we aced it, it was magnificent

I just discovered your channel and I was absolutely delighted to discover you've analyzed a bunch of my favorite pieces! Please keep the videos coming, I absolutely love them!

This was awesome. Loved the Devo and Batman inserts lol. Any chance you could do one of these for Blue Lake Overture or Nelhybel Symphonic Movement? I loved this. Thanks again.

I would love to see Aurora Awakes by John Mackey, or Angel's in the Architecture by Frank Tichelli

One of my favorites from high school and college (clarinet)

What are the low clarinets in this piece?

Sort of a concerto grosso in one movement for percussion.

私の高校時代の部活の顧問が、前任校で、全国大会に出場した曲です。おそらく、当時(45年前)、全国初登場の曲だったたと思います。

What I want to know is what temple blocks they were using, because they sound so cool

My high school symphonic band is going to play this for our spring concert this year, listening to this piece initially sounds very chaotic, but this really helped me under stand what's going on

I was trying to play along with what I remember of the flute part from high school but the batman slap took me out

I played this piece on a euphonium when studying music at our military's school of music. The conductor was also in training, and chose this piece as his final. We were randomly selected to play it, just as part of our regular training. That conductor managed the rehearsals as if his entire life had lead to that moment in time, and the actual performance (which was not at all public) was nearly flawless, but for the staff member who hadn't attended the rehearsals screwing up the bass clarinet part at a critical point in the music. Our performance of this music lasts in my memory as one of the most amazing experiences in my life. All that you've displayed here, I had the honor of experiencing over the course of the rehearsals, fully grasping these nuances and running with it.

I had to sight read this for an audition sophomore year, and they gave me one of those horrible split part pages of music. During auditions, I get really nervous, and at this point my eyes were sweating themselves, and I ended up playing the second part for half the excerpt because I couldn't see the music.

I stumbled upon this after reminiscing with a Jr. High School friend about band. I loved playing this; it seemed so exotic. After finding this recording and seeing your notes, I have to say, it's a pretty heady piece. We felt so adult playing it, I am reminded why!

You could say... this slaps.

2:39 and 7:06 are my favorite parts.

I'm playing this in a community band for our fall concert next month. This is absolutely my favorite tune that we're playing, and it's really caught my attention in a unique way. I learned what an octatonic scale is a couple weeks ago and was confused how anyone could ever make it sound good. Chance proved me wrong. He proved everyone wrong. There's a lot to take away from this piece for my own writing!

I first played this in Summer Band Camp ( In the '60s schools were afraid to play this NEW music) Age range Junior/Senior HIgh School . Fantastic directors!! Thought 'Old boring stuff'... then started getting wild! ... then WTF "I'm all alone!!!!" No Warning! shock and awe --- Wonderful!!! (Primarily: Bass Clarinet, Secondary: Bassoon) We were able to play/learn different instruments. (We were short staffed) This duo was with me throughout college UofMN

This is the hardest piece of music for bassoon that I’ve played Those sixteenth notes really caused me some pain

I love these score studies! I think they're helping me to learn music theory and music writing a bit!

Devo, Crack That Whip! lololololol 😂😂 Great video though 👍👍👍 I love this work.

Seemed like they left out the trombone parts

Incredible editing 🤩

that was awesome, love this piece! Great analysis as well.

Lololololol Robin got slapped!

呪文と踊り　ジョン　バーネス　チャンス

Brilliant work, Anthony!

👍バットマンにビンタ！

Such a great recording but its missing the contrabass clarinet. Great analysis as usual

This was pure gold

Just got a new slapstick for christmas, and I knew what piece I had to practice first!

hahaha, amazing

7:06 XD omg

holy shit this is so cool! i can't wait to see more

Awesome work.

What key is this piece in? Ive looked at the score and it is all in C, even for the transposing instruments..

Playing this on tuba
