Well, it's been a long time since I got such a warm tingling feeling with shivers down my spine from a brass performance, but this one did it. Phenomenal performance.

@filipfossum763 8 жыл бұрын

I love the whole piece so much, but my favorite part i think is around 6:57 when the piece "opens" up and starts the build up for the "big finale"!

It's definitely one of the greater ones. But there are also a handful that are arguably stronger than this. Of the ones I've heard; "St. Magnus" - YBS 2004 "Concerto Grosso" - YBS 2002 "Trance" - Valaisia 2016 "Year of the Dragon" - Brittannia Building Society 1992 "Masquerade" - Fairey Band 1994 "Fraternity" - EIkanger 2017 "Variations on an Enigma" - Eikanger 1989 All are more complete perfomances in my book (and did score higher at the event). This is not to discredit this performance(!), but more to shine light on the absolute and thorough quality of the bands, and this competition.

Is that a mistake by the timpani player at 6:35 -6:36?The two sticks weren't played together so it seems slightly messy there.

@samsignorelli 5 жыл бұрын

It's a reference to the drum line of the the Santa Clara Vanguard Drum & Bugle Corps....i.e "Keeping up with the Jonses." Historically, SCV has had a VERY good drum line..consistently at or near the top. SCV won the drum corps world championship this past August (their first since the tie with my old corps, the Blue Devils, in 1999, and their first stand-alone title since 1989), and they used "Journey to the Center of the Earth" in addition to "Metropolis 1927" in their program, "Babylon." kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mMyke5OX3JfLZWg.html for their winning run. Metropolis was the closer, starting in earnest around the 10 minute mark.

I don't see how this could beat Willebroek, sure it's played perfectly, but except for the solos it's a much easier piece than Journey of the Lone Wolf, which was played by Willebroek, who also played brilliantly.

@Tward2929 7 жыл бұрын

ElzearYoung sorry, this piece is 100 times better than Journey of the Lone Wolf. The first time I heard this, I had chills. Heard the lone wolf a handful of times and I'm done with it.

@GordonHugenay 7 жыл бұрын

well, my point was that Journey of the Lone Wolf is more difficult than this. But I also disagree about Metropolis being much better than JotLW (of course, not without respecting your opinion). Ok, the repiano solo in Metropolis is very beautiful, but the faster parts seem pretty uninspired to me, while the third movement of JotLW is without exaggeration the most spectacular piece of brass band I ever heard.

@Me-wk7dz 6 жыл бұрын

Pretty sure they aren't judging the piece, but rather the proficiency displayed by the band during the concert.
