  • Rock on Jupiter Middle School band for tackling this song!

  • la imagen va con retraso respecto al sonido

  • playing this in band! its awsome!

  • good times. i remember playing this with my band in high school. i loved this piece. ^-^

  • aww man no irish whistles at 4:12

  • thumbs up if your playing this in the Florida all-state band.

  • @matt15648 its on itunes

  • @Littlebocco lol i'm in 7-8 allstate band too on sax

  • to think this is what im playing for the 7-8 allstate band(p.s. bassoons rule the world)

  • @Littlebocco

    Bassoons ARE amazing. I'm also in the band :p Nice to meet ya.

  • @blueberryhead01 I was in the band on clarinet!!!!! I wish someone posted r concert so we don't have to wait for the dvd

  • I love this song! Its my freshmen year of High School, and iv been playing Alto Sax for about 4 years and due to lake of oboes i was chosen to play oboe for this song. In 5 days i was able to pick of on the oboe enough to play the solo in the beginning and i must say it was the hard thing i probably ever did in my life.

  • One of the rare times where the oboe doesn't sound like a chicken caught in a vaccuum cleaner. Beautiful!

  • I actually don't they played this all that well. No emotion to it. it's SO exact to the page, but that doesn't make it good.

  • I play it in my band with flute :)

  • gah! i can't wait to go to calvalcade, and perform this piece :) I love this song. It's so amazing.

  • i have one of the alto sax solos in my high school band. North Mason High School

  • @daltonplaysthesax The alto sax solo on this song is so cool.

  • I played this my freshman year for festival and we got straight ones. We used a chain in the beginning though... I liked it...

  • I am playing this in concert band this year and also played my rookie year in pioneer drum & bugle corps.

  • our middle school band did this song. no where near as good as this performance though..

  • agree

  • My symphonic band in high school is playing this piece right now and it is an amazing piece.The tempo in this performnce is much faster and I dont quite like it as much but still very nice.

  • think the oboe player is in a hurry... why does he play the solo so fast and without emotion? don't like the sax solo either. the player's tone is rather small... no drama in it. and why staccato anyway? the orchestra as a whole is great though! especially like the crescendos in the finale part. good job!

  • I couldn't agree with you much more. This band is a truly good band, but in technical stuff. In terms of emotion and such, they couldn't bring that across. But than again, they do receive credit for their awesome skills tho! (:

  • i'm pretty sure that this song is a level 5 out of the 6 levels....

    not positive though....

    this is a very well composed song and is well performed by this band. i wish the the band would have slowed the tempo down or kept the same tempo instead of speeding up during that 1st sax. solo.....

  • wat grade is this song?

  • Im playing this and am in concert band =P maybe 9th grade?

  • your concert band must be amazing because my school symphonic band (the better band) is playhing this

  • A local high school in Hawaii played this piece this past district festival, and it was quite remarkable (the piece I mean). I wish our director exposed us to more must like this, outside of schmultzy James Swearingen stuff.

  • love this song i played the oboe part haha it was AMAZING love the sax solo

  • i KNOW it's so awesome!! it's my favorite part...even though I'm a floutist and I play the flute solo in this song lol

  • at 5:36 they got the drum part wrong XD

  • wat grade is this song?

  • didnt robert W Smith also make The music for the divine comedy?

  • Yes

  • this is a really fun song.

    my high school played it last year.

    i played the oboe solos. :]

  • El video y el audio no están cuadrados.

    La toque el año pasado con mi banda, muy chula.

  • my high schoool band did this for our fall concert and it was amazing:D

  • Comment removed

  • This is a really great performance, a tad fast, but very nice. Sax player did well with the solos.

  • the singing part sounds really cool, when we played this in our band, it was always my favorite part

  • OMG I LOVE THE OBOE SOLO!!!!!!!!!!

  • ok, somebody speeded this song up with a computer.

    because those people did not play that song that fast.

  • what do you mean? I'm afraid you're wrong. The video was uploaded as it is. No speeding.

  • lol, sorry.

    i don't mean that to be mean to you.

    and i dont think that you did it.

    but this song was not played that fast.

    i just sounds fake...

    well, i mean, it's real, just faster then it was played in real life.

  • It looks fake because the image is delayed (I don't know why. It may be a problem during the conversion to mpeg4), but the tempo is real. Anyway, this is one of the best spanish bands.

  • it doesnt look delayed, the sax solo look just on time. and i played it about this fast

  • @dbass90 es una banda española? cual es??

    saludos!

  • @nairdaoneub la banda viene en la descripcción del vídeo

  • @dbass90 I played this song in my school band~ and i have the composer score...the tempo is ok. ^^ Cuz i got that song, played by tokyo kosei.

    Thanks for uploading, it's nice!

  • I'm not too sure you know what you are talking about. The song sounds real, the recording looks real. Maybe you have a problem streaming this clip and that's why it looks fake. Any high quality band would be able to play it that fast or faster, just wouldn't sound very good if it was too fast. This is a great band.

  • dude... even the guy that posted this video said that the picture looks fake because it has a delay...

    so no, i'm not having a problem "streaming" this clip.

  • Comment removed

  • @dbass90 it's true. I played it and it was so fast and difficult

  • yeah,seriously....its not like its impossible

    My highschool All-county band played it this fast lol

    you trippin

  • hmm.

    well, i think you're exaggerating.

    that's my opinion.

    it probably doesn't matter yo you.

    but it does to me.

  • the image is delayed because as bands play, especially in a big auditorium like that, their sound projects a couple seconds later to the audience, especially if you're in the back.

  • @goband182 maybe they're just better than you :p

  • @goband182 "[...]Somebody sped this son[..]"

  • we are playing this song at Carniege Hall this weekend :D

  • saxo alto is doing so great in this song

  • I Like the oboe solo

  • we played this my junior year too.. love this piece so much.. except during the really intense part at around 4:15 our flute players had these old school medieval flutes.. it was pretty hard core.. p.s. i find it sad slash funny that the video and the sound are so far about..

  • That part is supposed to be played with traditional Irish tin whistles by the flutes. At least, that's how it was marked in our music.

  • My band is, too. We play tomorrow. I'm the lead trumpet player.

  • My band's playing this for competition...It was a homework assignment for me to listen to it....

  • we're playing this!

    i love it!

  • we played this my junior year. By far my favorite symphonic piece. Best part (aside from the percussion solos that I got to play) is when the low brass hums. I loved that.

  • We're just doing this In School now.. I LOVE IT!!!!!

    Trombone plays a lot of Long tones though, honestly..

  • we play this song and i love the oboe solo

  • man i love the oboe solo

  • Very nice performance... we are playing this song at our next concert... and i can tell this is also a unique performance. It seems to me that you added accents.... or maybe emphasized them more than a normal band would... but out of all the times i listened to this song, i never quite heard it played like that. Good job.

  • i love all the drum solos

    but it hurts my ears when i play the song at school... i sit right in front of the percussion...

  • were playing this now. yay for oboe solos!

  • Magestic score!

  • thank u so0o0o0 much 4 uploadin

    iv been lookin 4 this song 4 4eva!

  • Epic.
