It's beautiful. We played this in band and I was the piccolo, and later someone asked me to sing my part. The notes were very high and hard to hit, but I somehow managed. I will never sound this good, though.
Gorgeous sound, gorgeous performance. That being said, I think that any audience member who makes the slightest noise during this piece should be shot in the face.
Makes you wish you were there, huh? Such a beautiful rendition. Wonderful strong alto. If this doesn't snatch it out of you, you're dead. Thanks for posting!
I love this song. We played it TWICE in high school (clarinet, here!!), and it was very well-received both times. One of my favorites to play, and I would LOVE to find the lyrics so that I could sing it too.
This is without a doubt the nicest version I have heard, minus the fact that it's not sung in the original Russian. The voices are SOOOO smooth and light when they enter as if it was only one person singing and then crescendo as if it were 100. Beautiful.
it sounds like two giant dinosaurs making love...beautiful (for anyone who's going to get but hurt over my comment that was a joke not an insult :D)
And it is beautiful. Watch the Land Before Time (fan fiction/art)

@karlherbold There is no such thing as a "correct" tempo. It's all about conductor expression and the way they hear it.
