American Barndance - Concert Band

[lvr4softballl]

I love this song! Especially the majestic part in the middle. :D

[musicX89]

we played this song in our 2010 marching along with our theme Shall We Dance, got us 8th in state ! (:

[Tentensbiggestfan]

I LOVE 110 to the end, without a doubt my favorite part! We're playing this in band, and our low brass section is so loud, it makes it so much fun to play :D (I'm a flute however, so I can't play too loud :P)

[paudelina]

I like this song and gonna play it tommorow for my jh honor band concert - trumpet

[Leelee488512]

This piece sounds....cute :) Like the Toy Story plot being told by band instruments.

[thekimiskool]

Ummm sorry to brag but the flute part is easy! If u think it's hard it's because you don't know what easy music is! This song is soooooo easy! And I'm a junior high!

[stackelberger]

@thekimiskool ur also a cocky jackass :D dont act like ur so great because u can play hard music. u were bad at one time too ;D

[goldenpickle1]

i love the trombone part right after the big entrance . bom-bom bonah!-clarinet

[lalaky2012]

When I was in the Midwest Ambassadors of Music Concert Band, we played this song, the flute part at the beginning is RIDICULOUS!

[toxicfume1]

i blasted the speakers in my car listening to this.

[Musicman421000]

I was in the 2011 Georgia All-State band and we played this. The 1st Horn part is ridiculous!!

[jewseeful]

[cascadeTbone3]

[shrimptim]

haha i like how most comments on this song is people saying what instrument they play, and that they're first chair. aside from that, love the song, great bouncy song to play.

[jck1794]

playin this tonight :)

[tate21906]

We are playing this at our spring concert. I play 1st alto sax and it's SO fun to play! I love it!!

[1043studios]

I play trombone in this piece in FBJH Honors Band - this is a fun piece to both listen to and perform ...

[thakid1231]

Damn... i dont even hear no bass drum

[IrishThunder18]

@thakid1231 It's there... Our band had six drummers... This song was written for like... a dozen or so? Our poor bass drummer has to like throw things down in order to do the whip in time near the begining. She does: Bass, Chimes, Whip, Crash, Vibes

[TheCoxmeister]

@IrishThunder18 dude same. we like triple parts

[TheCoxmeister]

@IrishThunder18 wait. your in my band! haha

[IrishThunder18]

@TheCoxmeister Smoooooth Cox

[TheAlmightyTaffy]

[dragonfyre1735]

This song is so fun to play. It's so bouncy :P

[justinisms]

I played 1st Alto in the world premiere of this piece...it is a blast.

[keelanwright]

I'm playing this right now I go to Bloom Highschool. Mr. Helton has us playing this.

[Kaluzniak]

This song is awesome..... Hi Lex!!!!!

[singerguy93]

my school's wind ensemble is playing this right now. it's funnn. haha.

[priest452]

Oh my gosh same here! It's way fun! Does your low brass have rhythm issues with playing upbeats from measure 65 to like 91? Ours does =(

[singerguy93]

@priest452 in the baritone part? all you gotta do is not think of them as upbeats. its really weird and slightly awkward, but i think of them as like downbeats. if that makes sense. haha. i dont think of it at 2/4 then 3/7. i think of it at 1 measure of 7/8.

[priest452]

@singerguy93 Hmmm... Yeah that makes sense. Luckily for me, I play bass clarinet, but I am getting sick of our director always stopping us to work with low brass. I enjoy playing upbeats, I kinda wish I was playing that part.

[mellykiddo296]

@priest452 We are playing this in band annd I always have part with the bell part at this slow part, its just kinda awkward but I'm finally getting it! :) ha sorry, don't know why I commented on this :P

[angelicalaurapanic]

@singerguy93

haha our's is too; i love this song (:

clarinets have a great part it this(:

[singerguy93]

@angelicalaurapanic

i love this pieceee. the xylo part is like amazing

it makes it so much quirkier than it already is.

i especially love it at like 0:37 when it doubles the flute/picc stuff

i LOVE that part

and of course the huge chord in the middle before the 2/4, 3/8 section. aha.

[priest452]

@singerguy93 Haha yeah... I played 3rd clarinet for this on band tour a few weeks ago... This song makes me smile =P

[cscfury19]

freaking awazing

[daneshawsontv121]

[TheBCarp]
