I do like how the composer added parts from national emblem March and Stars and Stripes forever into the song

Pingas
76 of them -
I am ready to puke after reading all these so-called musical experts "picking apart" this piece. It's great. Just shut up people and enjoy the music. Unless you're all experienced musicians, composers, arrangers or conductors, shut you yaps and take a hike.

Harold:
Seventy-six trombones led the big parade
With a hundred and ten cornets close at hand.
They were followed by rows and rows of the finest virtuo-
Sos, the cream of ev'ry famous band.
Seventy-six trombones caught the morning sun
With a hundred and ten cornets right behind
There were more than a thousand reeds
Springing up like weeds
There were horns of ev'ry shape and kind.
There were copper bottom tympani in horse platoons
Thundering, thundering all along the way.
Double bell euphoniums and big bassoons,
Each bassoon having its big, fat say!
There were fifty mounted cannon in the battery
Thundering, thundering louder than before
Clarinets of ev'ry size
And trumpeters who'd improvise
A full octave higher than the score!!! -
It needs to sound like every instrument contains 76 of it...
-
Lets not argue abt which instrument being better, bcos without any of de instruments, de songs would soumd alot worse so they r equally importamt no matter how trivial their parts
-
i love it!

Ah...you'll be wanting the London Trombone Sound. Put 'Recording "76 Trombones"' into the youtube search box (sorry, it won't let me link) and you'll find it...

alto sax! :P but I love trombones

1st. Euphoniums lack the epic brass-ness of the Trombone 2nd. The Euphonium tried to find a compromise between the Tuba (the tuba is a hardcore bass (i.e. boss) instrument) and the Horn (an Alto instrument like the Trombone, which can make a brass sound AND a mellow sound), and fails miserably. The Euphonium can sound good, but only in a select few instrumentalists/pieces.

Ya know what would be great, if thet actualy got 76 trombones to play this song :)
-
It's funny how it's not only played by trombones
-
Even though I'm a horn player, I think trombones are WAAAY better than Eupho's. Euphoniums are unco and gumby. Trombones are cool. Euphoniums don't deserve an anthem. Calling all fellow trombone lovers to like this comment.

no just no
-
Clarinet!!!!!
-
exactly, where is the ode to Euphoniums?? Best instrument ever!
-
