Saxman717 22 Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 Hey everyone! I am a saxophone player in the Cornell University Wind Ensemble and Wind Symphony, and this past Fall we performed Donald Hundsberger's wind ensemble transcription of the Star Wars Trilogy Concert Suite. I'll be converting the songs to mp3s later today and will send them to anyone who is interested. The piece is ordered as:Movement 1: Imperial MarchMovement 2: Leia's ThemeMovement 3: Battle in the ForestMovement 4: Yoda's ThemeMovement 5: Star Wars Main Theme and Encore of Imperial MarchIf anyone is interested in any of the above movements, let me know! -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxman717 22 Posted June 17, 2002 Author Share Posted June 17, 2002 Thanks, I will pass the message on next Fall....glad you like it! It was soooo awesome to play in last November, definitely the highlight concert of my career. We also played the Planets too (Mars, Venus, Uranus, and Jupiter), and I can upload those too if anyone's interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melange 446 Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 Oh i certainly would be interested about the Planets.Especially Neptune....one of my favourites on that compostition.By the way, i'm having a little trouble downloading the Yoda/Title suite.It downloaded but seems to have downloaded as a document..not an MP3.But maybe i did something wrong....i'll try again. I wanna hear that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melange 446 Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 Oooops. I see Neptune's not on there.. But i also adore Venus. So i'm in luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxman717 22 Posted June 17, 2002 Author Share Posted June 17, 2002 hmmmmm, that's weird, yeah it looks like it's on there as a document.....I'll re-upload it now.

Lurker 5 Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 "The Imperial March" played after the "Main Title" cues applause. I really liked the performances. I just re-named track "V" to a ".mp3" file and it played fine. Thank you for sharing!Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxman717 22 Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 OK, I think my mp3s have FINALLY found a respectable home, thanks to ecurbh and his fantastic FTP site. So, here should be the final list of links to the mp3s.....I also uploaded our performance of The Planets from the same concert!

ecurbh 0 Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 Listened to one track so far (The Forest Battle). Takes me back to my college band days. Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melange 446 Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 SteveI just listened to that Forest Battle MP3..I dont have the Return of the Jedi CD.But is that really your orchestra?...or you having me on? (compliment)Its absoloutely FABULOUS. Sounds very professional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxman717 22 Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 That is most definitely us! It's not even an orchestra, no strings....it's a wind ensemble! Comprised of 2 music majors :-) I'm glad you appreciate it so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxman717 22 Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 Oh, one neat point of interest, too, our conductor for that concert and this whole past year was Mark Davis Scatterday.....he has been the Cornell Music Dept. chair for the past like 10 or so years......and this coming Fall, he is leaving us to become the new Eastman Wind Ensemble director, replacing Donald Hundsburger! It was a big priviledge playing under such an amazing conductor, and I'm sure the quality of music of these recordings were largely due to his conducting skills :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecurbh 0 Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 ...this coming Fall, he is leaving us to become the new Eastman Wind Ensemble director, replacing Donald Hundsburger!Wow, that is impressive!Have you ever played anything by David Maslanka? He is my absolute favorite band composer. While I was at UofArizona, we did the world premiere of his Mass for band, chorus, boys choir and soloists. Unfortunately, I was not in that band at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxman717 22 Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 Yup, we did! Last Spring, our wind ensemble played Maslanka's MorningStar.....fun piece of music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mari 279 Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 The music sound great! Thank you for sharing it with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxman717 22 Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 My pleasure! Oh, ecurbh, I'm uploading MorningStar for you in case you'd like to have a listen. I didn't play in that piece last year 'cause i was only soprano sax for that concert, and the tempo seemed a little slow to me at the time, but I like it for the most part!www.ecurbh.com/~saxman/CU_David_Maslanka_Morning_Star.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxman717 22 Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 Also, now that I have a reliable FTP site, I can post any other requests that people have of works that we've performed at my school. We've done Copland, Husa, Hindemith, Ticheli, and many many others. I'll provide a short list of some of our highlights if anyone's interested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxman717 22 Posted June 19, 2002 Author Share Posted June 19, 2002 Oops, sorry ecurbh, the right link for Maslanka's MorningStar shoudl be:www.ecurbh.com/~saxman/cu_david_maslanka_morning_star.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecurbh 0 Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 Yeah, that's a nice piece, and the performance sounds great. I am moving cross-country this weekend, but when I get settled, I'll upload some of our performances for you. It'll probably be a couple weeks before I get back online regularly (how will I ever survive that long?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxman717 22 Posted June 21, 2002 Author Share Posted June 21, 2002 OK, excellent! I look forward to hearing those....does anyone else have personal recordings that they can share? I know I for one would be interested:-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
