A Sound in my Life

A Sound in My Life

 

 

What a sound!

 Crash and a Pop,

Starting right from the top.

The melody rings loud

As the trumpets play

It sounds so great,

What an amazing fate

 

Measure 32 is approaching very quick

The trumpets die down

To give the clarinets a kick.

The triangle rings while the flute sings

The timpanist introduces a roll

 

46 is one measure away

The suspended cymbal is starting to sway

Full blast the band plays the melody

It invokes a feeling of great glee

 

Now it’s the trombone’s time to shine

They lead the pick-up into 79

They play an arpeggio followed by an outstanding chord

Ending quietly as if it faded into a floorboard.

 

The quite hum of the four not pattern

The clarinets play with great skill.

Suddenly the Tubas break the brick wall

A low call

 

The sound is returning very slowly,

The tubas are still singing.

The Euphoniums blow an interesting tune

Which the Saxophones start to follow.

 

The Trumpets are back in a flash

As the start to crash.

All the instruments are alive

Stronger than ever before

 

This is what I live for!

This glorious noise.

Just a bunch of different sounds

But, oh, how much more it is than that.

An art, a skill, a wonderful craft.

 

This is what makes my life complete,

This is what I love to hear,

  This is the pulse in my veins.

 

It’s over

 

No applause

We’re just rehearsing,

And that is what I like the most.
