2009 CBDA, BASS CLARINET

I'm in 7th grade

[RHSVanguard2010]

Well, not exactly this particular group. This is the high school Wind Symphony.

[PROIMZ]

Oh I C.. RHSVanguard2010, u must be really good :)

I heard in high school, it's really hard to get into this all-state band

what grade r u in anyway?

[RHSVanguard2010]

Actually, I'm Mom. My daughter is a junior this year. I guess it has been so hard to get in at the high school level (i.e., they have had to turn away so many good players), another group (CBDA/CMEA high school honor band) has been added. One group (CBDA high school honor band) continues to perform in Feb. in Fresno; the other performs in Ontario (Southern Cal) in March.

[PROIMZ]

Oh, I see :)

You should be proud of your daughter !!

I am kinda jealous :(

[PROIMZ]

Oh wow..

0:18 ~ 0:23

doodlin' isnt that hard for percussion.

just takes a good set up. and good counting i guess.

[thepianomaniac]

ha that's me back there playing the tambourine. This was such a fun song to play! A challenge for the percussion section. Mr. Camphouse was such a good conductor too. A great experience overall.

[freshpinescents]

lol i remember when during rehearsal, the percussion section didn't have their special instruments in yankee doodlin and when mr. camphouse cued them, someone tried to do an imitation

And to whoever posted this video...how come variations on america is not on any of them?

[RHSVanguard2010]

I don't have an easy way to upload video, so I've added pieces in the order of my favorites. The encore piece went up just a few weeks ago.

[rankfrankrank]

COOl I WAS ONE OF THE MEMBERS!

[knreal]

wow this was a great performance!!

[tbonesfa]

This is a very well played performance; personally I would have liked to played the Sousa just a *little* faster, but the Parker, I really like.

Overall, this is a group of strong musicians! Keep playing.

[furrywoodlandcreatur]

it's totally awesome hearing all the percussion parts come together for yankee doodlin'.

yet, im still panicking here infront of the comptuer that i'm going to miss an entrance.

[shannonxdenise]

That ending was nerve racking. Lol.
