Great job, guys! My college wind ensemble is performing this same arrangement for our winter concert next week. We don't have quite as many players as you guys, but we sound pretty good all the same. Keep up the good work! :)
The singing is totally WEAK at the beginning! People need to learn how to get FIRED up about this music. This isn't some middle school arrangement, this is Hans freaking Zimmer. Get excited!
It seemed a tad slow, and the part where the winds start playing is not supposed to be legato/marcato at all. It's suppposed to be staccato. The percussion had it going though, very strong.
We are playing the exact same song with my orchestra, and I have to say that the brass in this band seem to have a hard time staying in tune, and that really ruined my experience of it.
The horn rips during Singapore were pretty bad and the oboe solo was out of tune and the tone quality wasn't that great and that is such a great solo. I played it in highschool for the orchestra version.
oboe solo sounded really out of tune, the chains after the singing were pretty meh,,, and as a whole the song sounded off pitch alot of the time., but tbh it was good, ive bin playing along with it on haha. hopefully my school will do better :)
Not bad, but I'm still fond of this middle school's pirates. I love the fact that you have vocal background. The percussion parts are also quite nice.
It sounds great but too slow. At 5:15, the trumpet parts should be double tongued, and if that was double tongued, then people need to work on double tonguing faster cause I don't think I could have double tongued that slow. Otherwise... it was well done. Trumpets need work. I'm a trumpet player in college, so i'm a little critical on players that play the trumpet. I've heard worse. Really, a good performance, just should have been quicker.
Hey Andrew its Kaitlynn I never knew how good we actually sound! Maybe Mr. Phillips yells at us for a reason! He still loves us or thats what he says ;D
it's like a romantic song with no climax and there are so many so slurs. the singing was nice though. no climax by the horns in the up is down and the trombones failed to bring up to the climax at bar 49.
the flow was smooth though, and the oboe solo is nice!!!
ur band is really great the singing is good our band played this arangment to our f horn was not as good as urs though sometimes clarinet sound sloppy. our band used trumpet for solo not an oboe.
pretty cool. remixed the song n everything. u guys should have tounged the notes more though. everythings slured. at least those playing the down beats. did u guys mix it or did u buy a different version of the song? cuz the one my band plays sounds nothing like that.
maybe your version differs from wat they play. they are two types of the same song, by diiferent composers, wat they play , according to the song, is absolutely correct. they didn't skip anything.

My apology, at 6:15 it is too slow. That is where the trumpet parts should be doubled tongued if at the right tempo.
