Without a doubt, the most moving moment I have ever had in my musical career was playing at a college football game, the first game we had after the Sept. 11th attacks. We played a patriotic show at halftime. The third song was an arrangement of a battle hymm. It was so moving, by the end of the piece, we had 40,000 people giving us a standing ovation. You can never relate this experience to anything else outside of marching band.
