I sort of miss the days when the cornets, trumpets, and trombone came to the front for Semper Fidelis.

'Promo SM'

F A N T A S T I C !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bravo Shostakovich! And, thank you for using the bass drum part from the orchestral original rather than the band transcription by Hunsberger!

Wonder why the intonation of the band is so much better than the Ohio concert? Must be the acoustics of the space allowing the musicians to hear each other. The piccolo is much better balanced too. The definition of the mics isn't as good but the sound is more natural with great fundamental bass. The recording engineer is to be applauded. Feel sorry for the cornetists when he ran out of spit and couldn't hit the high note at the very end. But then better safe than sorry. Love the Wagner choice as it is a great piece for concert band. Like the Star Wars piece, too. Hurrah for the best band in the land.

Festive Overture is both well played and conducted. Outstanding piccolo! It takes a great musician to play this instrument with such virtuosity...and IN TUNE! Thanks for an outstanding rendition.

👏🎶

They are not Marines! People directly selected for "The President's Own" are not required to go through recruit training.
Because of this they should not be allowed to wear the eagle globe and anchor, the emblem that every Marine has proudly worn ( including me) for over two hundred years. And they definitely have not earned the title of "Marine"!

Always a treat! I appreciate the livestreams so much! Thanks, Bravi tutti, and SEMPER FI!
