Listen to my Brass Chorale!
« on: July 02, 2006, 07:40:19 am »
So one of my band directors asked me to write a brass chorale for our brass line in my school's marching band. We'd use it in warm ups to help tune and kind of show off our sound at competition. My brass line is huge, about 70 people of just brass players. So you can imagine the amount of sound we crank out. haha. So anyways, this is what I wrote, tell me what you think.

For those of you who don't know... a chorale is a slow song with a lot of moving lines and nice sounding chords.

Chorales were always my favorite part of concert band warm-up.  In fact, I still remember quite a few of the ones we did.  They were never as long as this one, though, but I like it. :)

Thanks and yeah, chorale's are nice. Our warm ups are usually 10-15 minutes long though, so actually it's kind of short, but I don't think my director wanted it over a minute.. and it's like 50 seconds so... good enough.

Okay, this is weird.  I just got an email directing me to a new reply on this topic, but when I follow the link, I get "The topic or post you requested does not exist".

Here's the link: http://forum.nessaholics.com/viewtopic.php?p=190707#190707

What's up with that? :?
