The New York Staff Band (conducted by Bramwell Tovey) perform "The Kingdom Triumphant" by Eric Ball at the NYSB's 128th Annual Festival - Centennial Memorial Temple, NYC - April 26, 2015.
I greatly enjoyed playing this piece many years ago (very enthusiastically on bass trombone) and this is a super performance. Terrific sop playing, in particular.
A powerful emotive performance of Eric Ball's masterful and greatest piece of music in my opinion. Superb playing and the soprano and bass trom playingwas epic!
As I have said many times, look through a piece of music, if it looks easy look at the top Right hand corner and IF it says Eric Ball then you will find it very tricky! Beautifully written and all the tunes lead to somewhere. The whole piece tells THE story. Advent to Ascension it is ALL there!
