The Internet is Forever - Holst Second Suite in F
Back in 1989 I was 17yrs old and I had the opportunity to play in the Pennsylvania Youth Honors Concert Band. it was based out of Moravian college and was supposed to have been a group of advanced high school students playing advanced college music. (That’s what I was told).
My partner was talking about being at an area County honors band and Second Suite in F was played. It reminded me of my time in this band, and decided to do a google search to see what I could find.
Apparently, I’m old and a stoner so I forgot I did the same search a few years ago.. I found a two part VHS recording of a concert dated December 5, 1989. We were still in the GWH Bush era. Surreal. I might have had zero friends back in high school, but damn I had a good sound. If 50yr old Dana could go back in time and have a nice long chat with Dana at 17. Oh the convo we’d have. LOLOL
Second Suite Starts around 7:30.
