Land_Surfer Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 (edited) The 2022 Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert featured an interesting version of the finale to Saint-Saens’ Symphony #3 “Organ Symphony, a “hymnified” version, and a bit of a challenge to follow given its variation on a theme but, an interesting rendition nonetheless.

TOC Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Believe the version was from this year's concert with Lea Salonga and Sir David Suchet. Started at about the 38' 20" mark. Great music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 One of my favorite symphonies! Plus, the concert had another of my favorites, Lea Salonga! Would have loved to be there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my personal favorite list for sure! I played a concert band arrangement of the finale complete with piano and pipe organ at a church in NJ. It was amazing. The marching band I taught from 1994-2018 did the finale in 1995. John "Screetch" Arietano did the wind book and I wrote the battery book. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Wren’s arranging is so powerful and just true enough to original score. The only arranger to make a brass line sound like the CSO… the Leopold Stokowski of DCI, and Dan Farrell made that horn line emotional and LOUD. Both made “dark, rich and soulful” a trademark I long to hear again. Edited January 1 by Land_Surfer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
