Playing this piece in concert band (my Highschool split our ensemble into symphonic and concert bands, symphonic was better than concert) as a freshman gave my band director a huge new level of respect. Especially bc I was first chair trumpet, and dear god was first part fun

When I was in middle-school, my symphonic got to work with one of John Mackey’s friends on this piece for a festival, and I really enjoyed that experience.

My daughter's a senior in high school and their marching band just won the State championship performing this selection. My daughter played the flute solo! So proud and what a beautiful piece music! #2023WhitesboroBandUILstatechampions

Oooh tell your daughter congrats from some random internet flute band kid! Especially on the flute solo I had one last year to open our show and it was very nerve-wracking and just more stressful in general. This seems like such a fun piece for marching band.

Of all the recordings I've heard (and there are too many to have heard them all!), this is by far the most exciting and musical representation of the score. This one comes brings all the transitional bits and musical intracies out most convincingly!

This piece is constantly on my mind. My current middle school band director gave us the opportunity to sightread this just for fun thinking we would absolutely crash and burn yet we proved him completely wrong. He admitted this later saying he didnt think we would do as well as we did and his intention was not to keep the piece. We now play this everyday in band and soon will at our end of the year concert. I am so happy Ive been given the opportunity to even play this. Its one of my favorite pieces. THANK YOU JOHN MACKEY.
