Found a lot of old music and i'm so STOKED!!!!! Dug up an old favourite concert band song...



I used to play this while in junior college and it was one of my favourite pieces because it had that Persian feel like you were running through the city doing awesome adventurous things. It also has some killer solo parts (oboe, flute, horn, drums, saxophone section leading out, the layering of melodies at the end, etc) and the chords i heard when playing as a band really pulled at my heart strings. Oh, it was glorious. I miss playing in a band so bad. If there're two things i want to continue doing in my life till i'm old and grey, it would be archery and playing the alto saxophone in a band.

Man! I wish i had practiced my saxophone parts more!

Oh, and this is, in my opinion, one of the best opening pieces from an old cartoon "Johnny Quest"
