    Finally a bass trombonist that can handle the part! So many approach this sweetly. This is a film music bass bone part and it must be treated accordingly

    Yippee!! I just stumbled on this while finding other Eric W. music! Pretty much how I saw it in my mind's eye as I read the cd notes!! Only someone as talented and jovial as Eric could come up with something this wild!! "GRRRRR! No one can ever kill GODZIRRA! HAI!!" Eric's not all serious choral music..:)

    Played this in 2010 with my high school. The video with the song wasn't as good, nor the performance, but my god, boy was it a blast, having 90'ish people playing at once. It's great being able to hear this song again.

    The piece calls for a theramin or a combination of whistling and singing from the musicians. I am pretty sure that they used the theramin in this instance.

    To be totally honest, this was the first song I have ever played where "march of the elvi" was written in the music. It's....original, i will give it that. In all honesty though, I love this song, you get to play so many different styles, and tempos, and it has a unique story that goes with it.

    The same thing they always use to make those stereotypical-alien-like noises. It is a theramin. You can't really see it but it is on the right hand side of the screen towards the front of the stage.

    The last plunger trombone bit is supposed to be a "wolf whistle" when Godzilla first sees his exotic tango partner. But I have only heard it done well once or twice. Do trombonists even know what a "wolf whistle" is anyway?
