Included Parts:
This piece, while scored for eight specific instruments, may be performed by many combinations of brass instruments. Below are shown all the options for each of the parts.
Cornet 1 in Bb, C, or Eb (opt. Trumpet)
Cornet 2 in Bb (opt. Trumpet)
Flugelhorn 1 in Bb (opt. Cornet/Trumpet)
Flugelhorn 2 in Bb (opt. Cornet/Trumpet)
Horn in F or Eb (opt. Baritone/Euphonium T.C. or B.C., or Flugelhorn) Trombone (opt. Euphonium/Baritone T.C. or B.C.)
Euphonium T.C. or B.C. (opt. Baritone)
Tuba (B.C.) or Tuba in Eb or Bb (opt. Bass Trombone)
Performance Notes:
Composed in 1911, Gustav Holst’s “Second Suite in F for Military Band” is a standard in the wind band repertoire. The piece is constituted of seven folk songs which are most skillfully arranged. Three appear in the first movement, one each in the second and third, and two in the finale.
Movement I: "Glorishears," "Swansea Town," and "Claudy Banks"
Movement II: "I'll Love My Love"
Movement III: "A Blacksmith Courted Me"
Movement IV: "Dargason," and "Greensleeves"
Should E-flat or C cornet/trumpet be substitute for the Cornet 1 in B-flat part, two passages are cued in other parts to cover for notes which are very low and/or out of range. The first is in Movement I, measures 127 thru 131 (cued in the Cornet 2 part). The second is in Movement IV, measures 207 thru 208. In the case of the second exception, the players may decide at which point the hand-off from the substituting euphonium part may best occur, or just enter on the downbeat of measure 209.
In the unlikely instance that a flugelhorn is substituted for horn, the passage in measures 105 to 112 of Movement IV has pitches altered up one octave. Additionally, if a baritone or euphonium is substituted for horn, the passage in Movement IV from measure 185 to 192 may prove to be uncomfortably high. This is cued in the flugelhorn 2 part.
In Movement IV, some notes are marked with parentheses around them. These indicate the note may be omitted for an optional breath, an allowance made primarily to account for multiple consecutive long phrases which have no obvious place to breathe. In the case of the trombone part, the notes with parentheses may be omitted if the intervals become problematic (these notes are also in the tuba part).
For the most part, these parts may be printed two-sided, but in some cases, to minimize uncomfortable turns (particularly involving the D.C. in Movement I), additional pages may be printed or the part in its entirety may be printed one-sided.

There is literally nothing wrong with this video. It's perfect. Well, one minor thing... I wasn't involved :) The euphonium is outstanding, the flugel is as good as Miles, and the tuba deserves an Oscar . That's not to diminish anyone. It's just the points that hit hard.
@thomasrice4078 Жыл бұрын
Nicely balanced sound. (Holst is the patron Saint of euphonists). Some groups play it too fast to show off their skills, but the music suffers; this tempo is just fine.
@TheMusicofDrewFennell Жыл бұрын
Thanks. You're not the first to comment on this (for the other movements as well). I agree. People often take the fast movements too fast and the slow movements too slow! In my opinion, there is a "correct tempo," for all four of the movements in the suite.

As remarkably good as this rendition is, 34.99 is a little outrageous don't you think?
@Matonizz Жыл бұрын
@@jigler Glad you enjoyed the arrangement and appreciate your feedback. This whole suite is over 10 minutes long, which required substantially more time, work and resources to arrange, record and publish. Our package for octet includes transposing parts in any practical key and clef, which allows for flexible instrumentation (182 pages in total in pdf file). However, producing that many parts require once again, substantially more time and resources, along with production, mixing and mastering of the backing tracks with real brass instruments for each movement. This suite costs a bit more than our regular stuff but hope that explains where the price is coming from and I can guaranty the quality in score, parts, arrangement and backing tracks is worth every dollar :) Once again, truly appreciate your feedback here :)

The Baritone has very good range. It can hit many of the high notes the trumpets do. It’s at home with the Trombones and can keep the beat, counter melodies as the Tuba. Yes! A magnificent instrument. Quite a lot to carry around as it’s case is large and learners are often small.

I love hearing y’all play anything! I’m going to listen to it again. On my first listen, it seemed a little top heavy and the mid range not as strong from a balance point of view until we get to the euphonium solo. I’m using the triangle of balance method and that may be my problem. Each player is AMAZING and I love you guys!!! ❤❤❤❤

@TheMusicofDrewFennell Жыл бұрын
Fair point. I did the mix, and I'll try not to take anything personally (haha, kidding). Honestly, I'm very careful about minding the balance between the parts (and you need to be when you record all the parts at different times and in different places). It could be my ear is just more attuned to the trumpet range. I don't know. I generally try to keep the lead line and the bass slightly above the accompaniment. Maybe that's why the middle is wanting.
