My high school band..Havre,Montana played this for festival adjudication in May 1963.. A marvelous piece that everyone really loved !

Great vid as always, and I’m so glad you used the President’s Own recording! This one’s my favorite by far, of this piece and of the entire triptych.

So happy to see a reduction and analysis of this one! I really love all the different ways Schuman elaborated on the main theme.

One of my favorite pieces! Great analysis!!

Whenever I see an upload from you, I stop whatever I'm doing, man. I love this piece. Played it when I was a senior in high school. I was finally starting to really come into my full music capabilities, if that makes sense. Or rather, it was when all the practicing I'd been doing since I started playing clarinet was starting to pay off. Thanks for the memories.

lots of good memories associated with this piece :) thanks for this one anthony

Excellent job, as always! For a future analysis, I think it would be really interesting to tackle a concert band transcription of an orchestra piece, especially one done by the composer themself, through the lens of how the arranger chooses to assign which parts to which sections, how the string voices are adapted to the woodwinds, while retaining the original woodwind parts and how certain string effects (tremolos, pizzicato, col legno, etc.) are adapted to achieve a similar effect in a concert band setting. It's a bit more niche, and you're clearly a concert band literature devotee, but I think I might be a really cool diversion to consider :D

Man, I love the opening chorale.

A cool analysis *and* a free transcription to go off of for my project? What is it, christmas?

ooooh speaking of new england triptych, an analaysis of that would be really awesome. or When Jesus Wept at the very least
