  • i cant wait to play this this christmas :) but for all you people saying you can play faster? WHO CARES?! if you play the song to fast then you lose its dramaticness :(

    i in 7th grade and im going to rock this song with my middle school concert band :D

    you guys did good

  • timpani is wayyyyy off... we play it faster

  • I'm in Sixth grade and playing this. Snares are way faster (and better) and we even play it faster. I play the timpani.

  • 1:28 - 1:48 there is a major harmony versus melody dilemma

    could have been better but its obvious that effort was put into this

  • Comment removed

  • thats wat i call music

  • trumpets played the rhythm at 37 incorrectly. held the ties too long. but they made it fit he phrasing. i'm not trying to criticize. i'm a band teacher too. i have my jr. high playing this peice. :-)

    good job!

  • The Timpani wasn't tuned at all :S

  • TigerFire24- who are your trying to impress?? They did their best.. and spell check there buddy.. "HIGH SKOOL" DUDE GROW UP. and FAILSAUCE? your such a joke.

  • somewat good solo... im 13,.... i can do it WAY better..... and im second chair... FAIL... r u sure this is honor band?

    im in 7th grade and we played it... this is HIGH SKOOL!!! FAILSAUCE

  • i hope this this isn't ur highest band

  • our band is way better than any other video, and we are 7th graders

  • I played this in 7th grade and we went to contest with it and got best band and best band over all!

    one thing that i thought was wrong was that at the beginning the mallets were late.

  • i am playing this song at disneyland on may 21 i am a trumpet player and the song is very hard

  • i played this song for mi all district in va

  • u can barelyy hear mallete percussion.. the one measure timpani solo was sooo out of tune.. im in 8th grade and wer doing this song at our concert and we sound way better sorryy

  • Seeing all these comments is bumming me out... We almost did this for district, but it was cancelled. I played the marimba.

  • When the saxophone came in, shouldn't the flutes have gotten softer? You could barely hear it!!!!

  • she was trying to keep the flute section quiet so i guess there flutes dont watch

  • the trmpets are way too slow. and they don't even play the part properly.

  • CRAP

  • We're playing thsi (8th grade) and it sounds a lot better. Ya'll basically played the same dynamics the whole time and the percussion were trying to drown yall out. The sax player was over beat by the clarinets and flutes....... I hate to see songs chopped up like this.... I should know. I conduct this song

  • you're so right. i play trumpet and those trumpets in this band are slow on this song and their tone is absolutely terrible. my bands playin this song for a contest.

  • ok it slows down at :25, when the low brass enters. plus the winds can play their eigth notes fast enought

  • could be better...too much percussion and not enough woodwinds

  • omg we just played this for our concert at the highschool on saturday and the judge said we sounded like 9th and 10th graders and were only in 7th grade NO JOKE!!

  • i love this song....lol.....we played it in our middle school band....-_- i think we were better...no offense

  • i played this yesturday at honor band were a bunch of kids from dif. schools go & play together we did really good

  • We're playing this song now. This sounded fairly good, except for the Timpani and snares. Snares could be cleaner, and the timpani sounded completely out of tune. Good job though =).

  • I played this song, I don't remember when, but this version is really good

  • omg!! i played this song!!!!!!

    in 8th Grade District 5 Honor Band!!!!

  • the timpanis should be louder and i think the snares should be more clearer.

  • the sax solo isnt loud enough compared to the rest of the band all i can hear is the flutes etc playing there bit but it was ok

  • bells should be louder snare is too loud. and yes, the timpanis or not too good.

  • dam those timpinis are off tune

  • This was pretty good. Although afew parts were missing(too low X_X) Anyways good articulation(I should know lol I'm 2nd Trumpet in the Noble Middle School Marching Night Hawks)

  • i had the oboe solo...and this was the uber long version

  • i played this song in the 7th grade for my end of the year song i was only in the 2nd best group the hight group did a college piece that was 4 pages long

  • ohhh i played this for my band camp. i was the vibes. ohh i loved playin this song! soooooo much fun! (yeah i know im a bandgeek! =D)

  • I had the sax solo for this song when I was in my All County band i was a nervous wreck considering i was playing in front of about a thousand people.
