THIS GOES TO EVERYBODY WHO IS BITCHING ABOUT HOW THEY PLAYED THIS BETTER!

This christmas concert is from the very first year Saginaw High School was open. These are 9th and 10th graders only. This is awesome for a first year band if you ask me. Now in 2010 saginaw high school has one of the best band programs in Texas. We are the only high school in texas that opened in 2005 who has gone to the State Marching contest every year qualified, which is 2 times in 4A, and 1 time in 5A, and we have a

[cavies12]

@silverdrgen O.O That's the version MY school played. And im in 7th grade

[darthvadersanus]

The trumpet needs to grow some balls, btw your low brass is amazing when our band played this our low brass stopped in one part and it was pretty funny

[IAmNinboy]

We play this arrangement too.. it sounds exactly the same, except I can't hear the 1st Trumpet part at the beginning.. or when that riff comes in again later, or right at the end. It deserves to be played louder!

[titanicsearch]

my band plays this song this year for our winter concert. it is so fun, but we do a longer version.

[iffinness]

The 8th grade band is playing this at my school... we sound so bad, haha. o_o; maybe if we sounded like you guys our director wouldn't hate us so much.

[Truficy83]

Pssh same here.!' VVV lol but we got a gold rating. (yes) lol

[niceguyguy2]

[GanonZeldaLink]

I'm playing this version tommorrow night; we take it way too fast, and the jingle bell part when we play it is a lot softer; our trombones are the best in the world; yay high school wind ensemble!

P.S.-the euph part is boring, so i cheat and read off the bass clarinet and bassoon music (they sit right in front of me)

[ItsSarahDuhh33]

[TripleEBoss]

The past December My little bro played a slightly different version of this song. He is a Trumpet In Honors band. His band's version of the song is way better. Trust me u all.

[wiiowner1996]

I played the much simpler version (7th Grade) and the most complex part is like B-C+-D flat-E-F-G-A-B (alto sax) so yeah I guess there are different versions...

[korean4evr]

we played this at our christmas concert this year....i kinda like it..hehe...

[rsboy360]

[korean4evr]

turner county

[dgprincess21]

[Dairuga9]

Good job on yours.

[ambulancerookie]

[ambulancerookie]

[HahaJubJub92]

madison/huntsville,

bob jones in madison suburbs :3

[DrgRiderz17]

its missing french horns!!!! the jingle bell part sounds alot better with actual french horns, but that was a good performance

[Phoenix9109]

...? It does have French Horns...I geuss they just weren't very loud. This was a group of all Freshmen and Sophomores after all.

[GreenCheeze96]

@DrgRiderz17 There's French Horns in it because I can hear them. (I playing the same instrument and song at the moment, so yah) lol

[tailz789]

what school is it???

where???

[lilxann]

Saginaw highschool in Saginaw texas

[johndeere3500]

i played this song today in the tmeas region band here in the woodlands

[ares014tuc]

me too

u were in symphonic band right?

what insturment do u play

[Rilakkuma13be]

we played that song in middle school band, but my high school teacher wrote it

[Mokinshi]

he didnt actually write it, the song was first performed in 1912 i think

[FlamingBird37]

We did Ukranian Bell Carol on my Orchestra concert on Norvie middle school. :D

[xxxDeath9572xxx]

The band sounds AMAZING!!!!

[MexicoJunior]

In my school they are playing the same song but it sounds different then this

[jellomaster465]

I didn't like this, it wasn't the Ukranian Bell Carol really, was something like a Christmas medley?????

[tomboynarutoluverbff]

O-e no offence to you guys, but you guys majorly slowed that down, it's supposed to be played at 196, which is much faster than what u played. so fast that we just played it in 3. We're playing this at our Christmas Concert Sunday =D i'm a flute player

[catrat3peanut1]

I am a flute player too! I have a concert next week!

[mollymicka]

how many kids?

[PianozRULE]

Sherman high school? Led by Mr. Jenkins? I think...

[Sticky1254]

Yes, we are playing this at my school too. We have the same arrangement also.

[iloveyu4eva]

Personally I find this to be better played with a string orchestra not a wind ensemble. BUt you guys were okay.

[Rilakkuma13be]

then you play a stringed instrument, it is played worst by an orchestra in my opinion, and best by a choir, but a professional choir, not a school choir.

[unholylespaul]

WoW! u have a really different piece....and wtf is with jingle bells or whatever that was put into it???

[SmileyGab1]

i played this today but it was a different version.....i play clarinet its awesome

[WinsterG]

ok.... i like my orchestra better .. &_&

[mollymicka]

awsome!!!!!!!

[BLEACHchik]

[itsmaria89]

[nerdibabixx34]

[bigw2012]

SAXAPHONE POWER!!!! (alto that is)

we're doing this too

[Phoenix9109]

For the record, I switched back to alto, which was what I originally played. I played bari from concert season freshman year through concert season of my sophomore year, I think. I don't remember what I played concert seaon Junior year. But yeah, I'm back to alto now. ^_^

[Sweetypart]

wow....my school bad can play tht so much cooler...noobs

[Sprite2220]

[lynzimars]

Haha Mr.Pearson has us playing this in Symphonic band this year :]

I love playing in this band :]

[Phoenix9109]

Yeah, symphonic band tends to recycle our music a lot...and we recycle our own music a lot too. I've played Polar Express for three (maybe four I don't remember) years now, and I'm about ready to burn it.

[GondolaOfDeath]

My Ljis band is playin this, a good song.

[somonoi]

my middle school is playing a different version of this song

Me too!

[hopstarterproduction]

the newest species of refridgrator dinosaurs, SLéckjick von bunglthwarthiggle

[militarytrombone]

My band plays an arrangement of "Ukrainian Bell Carol" that sounds just like that.

[erxsoccer1]

ok, all i have to say is that, portage west middle schools band is playing this faster that what were are supposed to and this is the 8th grade band, so this is a really easy song, but you guys did do good, and i play 1st trumpet, which is even more boring(if any other trumpets find this tidbid interresting, you can play the claranet part and its the same key sig and every thing, just play it like you would if it were your music)

[eolamaukaolelohawaii]

hehe, i played this at my high school christmas concert last year...1st part for clarinet babe!!! hehe, this song was so easy to play...

[lilxann]

i dont like the fact that we are playing this song for like..the 4th year in a row...

[DarkKnight6464]

My middle school band is playing this. It is an awesome piece and I am one of the french horn players!

[hopstarterproduction]

nice, me too, i'm playing this in montreal with my school. im also a french horn player, what do you play: and F horn or a B minor?

[DarkKnight6464]

I play double horn and I am pretty sure it is a F and/or a Bflat French Horn

[gumhater1]

[kimmi118]
