PetePan 163 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 What do you think? Quite a solid arrangement from well known Dutch Brassband De Bazuin Oenkerk. MrJosh and Fabulin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJosh 892 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Really cool, and they sound great! No (French) horns? I see euphoniums, and smaller euphonium/baritone-shaped instruments but I can't quite tell what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetePan 163 Posted August 17, 2021 Author Share Posted August 17, 2021 These are tenor horns or often called alto horns. (British) Brass Bands are limited to specific instruments, excluding, for instance, trumpetsor French horns, which are found in orchestrasand concert bands. The standard instrumentation is as follows:[3] 1 soprano cornet (E♭) 9 cornets (B♭) – Front row: one principal cornet, three solo cornets Back row: one repiano cornet, two 2nd cornets, two 3rd cornets 1 flugelhorn (B♭) 3 tenor horns (E♭) called alto horn in many countries – solo, 1st, 2nd 2 baritone horns (B♭) – 1st, 2nd 2 tenor trombones (B♭) – 1st, 2nd 1 bass trombone (B♭) 2 euphoniums (B♭) 2 E♭ basses, also known as E♭ tubas 2 BB♭ basses, also known as B♭ tubas 2 to 4 percussion MrJosh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bespin 8,480 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 If you remove the 'br', you get another perspective on these kind of groups! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverTrumpet 638 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Whenever someone arranges something into a different key than the original it throws me off big time, but besides that I love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toothless 963 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Makes me remember when I heard that cue performed live with a 120 piece orchestra 4 years ago. That was something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am now remembering some old band music as I looked through scores in school band class, and seeing cornet and tenor horn parts. Cool that this group is carrying on this brass band tradition.
