The xylophone/marimba(It could be played by either parts, I know it's a xylophone solo in the video >.>) solo that starts at around 3:13 just sounded as if it had no soul. There was no feeling to it. I don't mean to be rude, but I just feel as if she didn't want to be there or she just learned the music prior to the concert.
Yeah I agree with you but hey its a high school band not a professional band.
I wish I knew how so I could enlighten you guys with our recordings of Armenian Dances, Toccata Marziale, March from Symphonic Metamorphesis,Chester Overture, Variations on American, and Mannin Veen wich shows the high school band growing into an even more mature group.
the trunpet part is not well played at parts like in the divided parts where the 2nd and first cornets have the same part but at different times and r suppose to sound like one cornet part not two, but overall good job, 3rd trumpets not loud enough and overblowing 1st &2nd trumpets/cornets and trombones
Yeah Loara High School in Anaheim, Califonia. This was my sophomore year when I was playing 2nd trombone. My last two I switched to bass and now I'm a music major at CSUF on bass bone.
I wish I knew how to upload videos so that I could post the videos from 06 and 07 at festival.
Excellent performance overall. I had a little problem with the bass voice, particularly the trombones who at times sounded like they were blasting. The strongest sections were most definitely the high winds, we were impeccable aside from intonation problems here and there. Once again, a great performance. =D
Our band director decided to go insane and throw a march, this, and 5 long movements of Enigma Variations (grade 5) at us. Some schools can probably handle it but I honestly don't think we're there yet. Oh well. I guess we're doing a little better than I thought... You all did a great job at this.
Wow!!! Amazing job we are playing this in a few days it is a really cool piece and that was a really good performance of it! Great Balance and HORNS!!!
i was a senior here woo!!!

Awesome piece! What's amazing is that it's a "Level Three" piece... but I mean, it's EASILY a level 5 piece, maybe even level 6.
BiggestofMikes 5 years ago
It's a level 6 I believe, AA college literature. We did a better job last year on two harder pieces, symphonic metamorposis and chester overture
