Amazing, considering they grow up listening to music that sounds like it was composed on the black keys of a piano! Many Japanese seem to be great impersonators. There's a Japanese girl who sings just like Karen Carpenter on YouTube, here. I think under "The Carpenters." She sings as Richard accompanies her on piano. His praise for her talent brings her to tears. Maybe idea of bringing Karen to life again for Richard. Who knows?
i have played this for middle school tri county orchestra (i was first chair cello!!! ^.^) and we did rush it a bit but that was part of the fun i guess. instead of squeaking we used whistles, slide flutes, clappers, a popper, and as the the conductor called it "a zing thingy"
lol. instead of the squeak the seinors choose something to do in that time. One year there were animal farm noises, another they threw rubber chickens into the audience, and every time our orchestra teacher wears a viking helmet.
but this was a serious event, and an honor to be there. so that wasn't gonna happen. and we were working with one of the most well known cello teachers in the state.
OMG and you're only amateurs? This is so freaking good!!!! You become the music, practically, cuz you add ur own coreography and all..... very very cool. I love it when they twirl the basses. Favorite! :D
Very nice, and I noticed how everyone's heads are kind of moving the same. It's really neat to see how not only it sounds like one unit, they move like one unit also.
This is like the third movement of Tchaik 4 meets Aaron Copeland's Hoe-Down...
