My orchestra is going to play this at out high school graduation. It's funny because when we rehearse it these guys from the orchestra pretend to be snake charmers of they prance around.
@Harley091594 i played this song in orchestra when i was in high school in 10th grade in 2007. Even thought this is a song about Samson from the bible it reminds me of the beauty of the ancient world
That's cool I'm actually in 10th grade right now but everyone from orchestra plays at graduation, the seniors aren't required to play. It it a beautiful song, I love the bass part a lot, even though I play violin.
@Harley091594 im a violinist as well but ever since i left high school i been into guitar but i still play both violin and guitar in college and wow cool you should prove to all orchestra that your better then everyone in your orchestra just like i did in 10th grade and etc and then eventually youll be first chair trust me it works.
p.s. you like Mussorsky my fav song from him is Night at bald moutaint but his songs are so awesome as well
@Theoni17 im only in 7th grade and the 8th graders r playing it and now i have play with them cause its the hardest version the teacher could find!!!!
Just played this at last night's orchestra concert! It was awesome! It was so hard to play. But we had the band and orchestra all the drums. it was AWESOME!
My Best Friend plans on skating to this. and I can see why. This is such a beautiful and fun song! The only sad thing is that it's taken me until now to finally here this beauty. Thank you for posting this version of the song. :)
this was the last song that i got to perform with my school orchestra before graduating, by far the most amazing piece we ever got to play. i really loved it
Played this with my honors orchestra... It is my favorite piece by far =) Its so much fun to play on bass =) especially the end with the accelerando xD
@FSPB123 Good!!! I remember the hardest part for me was keeping on those off beats then right into the fast part. Of course its cake now. but this was last year xD Good luck! Its a really cool Piece =)
@TH3B3A57 i know what your talking about. its like 8th and quarter notes then it goes to the 8th and 16th note riff. i can play the whole song easily i just need to get the bowing down on those parts. its weird, its like 2 down bows then idk. lol.
@FSPB123 yeah hahah. =) ask your conductor if you can bow the 16th note riff as it comes instead of the hooked bows. its easier and honestly sounds better =)
@TH3B3A57 to late. i already got the bowing down lol. but i do agree it does sound better if you do not do the correct bowing. i have this song down perfectly, im pretty excited to play it in concert.
this song is 6 sheet music pages of PURE HELL!!! but the song is pretty awesome to listen to and well worth the months of practicing it takes to even play it moderately well.
Played this years ago in high school. Saw that Canadian figure skater perform to this piece and remembered how much I enjoyed playing it on the french horn all those years ago.
I have to play this for my symphony tryouts this weekend i have been working hard I hope i make it!
