Exaltation - James Swearingen (with Score)
Музыка
A dramatic and forceful overture with lots of rhythmic drive. This contest oriented work features an alto saxophone solo and fine melodic material. PERFECTION PLUS!
Performed by the Washington Winds under the direction of Edward S. Petersen.

@@ducksternumber2993 Yes, I first encountered it in honors band in early middle school. When I played with the high school band. It was a right of passage. You weren't good until you could perform this competently. It was a staple at concerts. Learning this piece well was part of your ascent up to first chair.

@@pitpride1220 wait 1st chair?? in percussion, i got put on the snare drum part but am on 4th chair lmao
Probably my all-time favorite we played in high school band. Freshman year, 1979!
I did this in 8th grade. Both middle schools did this piece for the bridges concert with our high school freshman band. I miss my band instructor. He quit teaching and now works as an apple employee in retail.

Im playing this in Highschool right now on clarinet LOL
I remember playing this in ‘93-94 with the Clarinet. I had a karaoke machine, that recorded 4 tracks at the same time, so I would play 1&2 chair B flat clarinet, and 1&2 chair Alto Saxophone just to record multiple layers of this song at the same time. ( On cassette tapes )
This is my all time favorite concert piece. I played this in middle school. I majored in music and have played most of the classic literature. This piece shows that a piece of music doesn't have to be extremely difficult to be great music.
i played this just today and its the reason why my 8th grade band got gold at issma
THANK YOU for posting this. I played this song in middle school and absolutely love it.
First chair trumpet in high school!

I can’t wait for my tenor sax solo
Bruh I’m in middle school and got first place in its this song😅
Feels like James Swearingen only wrote this composition and everything else he wrote is a variation on it....(I'd call him the Nickelback of composers, but he's actually interesting...)

2:39 listening to this part is so funny cause we had a bari sax (myself) and a tuba and nobody told us to crank it back, so we were just blaring it 💀 I think it added a march-y feeling to the piece which honestly our director was digging lol
この曲の演奏は88小節の後半(ティンパニーソロ)が抜けているものです。ご注意ください。
