Quite literally fire 🔥🔥🔥

5:16 This glissando is absolutely perfect. My favorite part of the entire piece and probably of any composition. I don't know how Steven Reineke keeps making insanely good music every time.

At the top of the song it says Dedicated to a school. It was my HS, I got to be in the audience when for the very first performance of this song watching Steven conduct a group of HS students, who'd only had the music 2 weeks. staying late every night to practice it. The standing ovation was well earned and is still one of the most memerable moments I had as a music student almost 20 years later

So much fun percussion going on

I love all the key clicking effects

I sightread this piece for practice and its so just *chefs kiss*

Played this in highschool, i was the only bari sax. It was the coolest song ive ever played

I played this in Highschool. I always loved his music

@@asanarr9931 It's not a big deal, haha. I have precession and cello for this song, and I'm acctually trying to learn the flute part. Already have the tenor and base clarinet parts down just in case we need a backup for one of the solos.

I conducted "The Witch and The Saints" last year with my orchestra in France, in Dinan. The themes and the combination of instruments were very well found. On the other hand, I'm a little disappointed by "Goddess of Fire" despite the beautiful mysterious introductory part and the fresh resolution on percussion with Glock, Marimba and Vibra. At 6'54 the choatic dissonances which recall a little the cluster writing of Varès is also interesting. But the rhythmic theme lacks development and we systematically find the classic scheme throughout the score: Relaxation, tension, relaxation, tension... There is little length, the composer repeats himself (with all my respect for this job of writing and orchestration!)

I think it's just the fast-paced 10/8 phrases that tend to sound similar. At least the beginning sections of both Goddess of Fire and The Witch and the Saint are very distinct and strongly evoke their titles.
