trumpetcam Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Man, they have some exposed brass parts. A lot of chromatic lines that are challenging. I don't think they played a major chord in the show prior to one in Purcell. The tuba writing is challenging as it covers all over the horn.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a pretty strong low brass section this year. Good tones. Mellophones sound really good too.

trumpetcam Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 For all of the ensemble issues they've had in recent years, the staff comments I hear are really outstanding. It seems like a really good vibe, but maybe that's the just the way that group rolls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeffeory Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 They're rehearsing "A Walk on the Water" at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trumpetcam Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 After those licks I heard earlier, the high brass sound pretty darn good as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeffeory Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Interesting visual effects during the beginning of "A Walk on the Water" before the beginning "hit" that they've just starting working through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
