Ask anyone who is attends my old school who was in the Concert Band last year and they will tell you Little English Suite needs to be burned.
Also I am going to agree with the burning of Pomp and Circumstance espcecially when you only have two clarinet players playing at the finale one of which is yourself, it still makes your mouth hurt even with a class of less than 100.

I think like most people that pomp and circumstance should be shredded, burned then the ashes flushed down the toilet. God I hate that song

Another tune which should be burned-- Variations on a Korean Folk Song. Actually, it's a really pretty and cool-sounding piece, but it is friggin' HARD.
My band is known as the "higher, louder, faster" band, but I think we may finally have met our match with this one. (Actually, we just don't have a lot of time to get it ready and don't want to practice it at home.) Variations could be more accurately described as "lower, louder, faster," but it's right up our alley, if we weren't so lazy and afflicted with Senioritis. But for now, I wish to burn it. Along with O Magnum Mysterium, which (in my opinion) has no discernible melody (and is boring to boot), and Elsa's Procession to the Cathedral, for making me learn really-freakin'-high-F on a Tenor Sax.
I think that's about it for my ranting today (except for Pomp and Circumstance of course, which is making me sick, since I dread graduating anyway).

I'm in grade 9, playing level 4. pieces in the Sr. Concert Band, but in Jr. Concert we played a level 1 piece. Anasazi. I actually did burn mine. Maybe I just singed the corners. either way

Pomp and Circumstance and Rhapsody in Blue should be burned, along with its writers.

Hoe-down from Rodeo by Aaron Copland. It's the song from the beef commercial. I'm never eating beef again.
I like On A Hymnsong of Philip Bliss, mainly because it's the only song where I don't have to blow my brains out.

I agree On A Hymnsong of Philip Bliss is good...EXCEPT FOR THE FLIPPIN TUBA LINE!(I play Tuba! biggrin ) Its so boring...

I would say "Belle", the 2nd movement of the Cajun Folk Song "suite". It sounds terrible with our band and I'm not quite sure what it would sound like with a more experienced band, but...it doesn't sound great plus the melody grates on my nerves.
