I want to set up a remote-controlled speaker so this plays whenever I enter a room.

I never cried to a fanfare. So amazing

[jacobbb]

I play this every time I walk into my workplace. Iv gotten 65 promotions in 6 months

[stayoffduhweed]

this should be incorporated into a five mintute full piece. it seems like its just a short thought as it stands

[monsoonifye]

I love this piece, and I see that the Euphonium is used as a an octave double to the tuba, but it's still a bit saddening that it gets overlooked.

[bradencutright-head]

This is something I think should totally be expanded!

This was in used in an arbys chicken pepperoni Parmesan commercial

Sounds like this was intended for a military style band. The ones from East Texas; they play a short but effective fanfare at the beginning and end of their drill and this is exactly what this reminds me of!

I'm in 5th grade and I play clarinet and looking at it it looks really high

[silpheedTandy]

haha poor woodwinds. they get 7-uplets for which they have to practice HOURS to get proper, but in the end they're still only mere icing on the cake, never the star of the piece. no wonder woodwinds hate us brass (and trumpets in particular) :P

Trombone part goes all the was up to a b flat

[vancegarven]

Lovely arrangement, but can't really compare to the Army Herald Trumpets. Still wonderful though
