We only had a week to prepare and play this music as well, but I'm not trying to one-up you. So, sorry if it feels like that. I played this in honour band, so that could have something to do with it.
to everyone saying they played this in middle school, it doesn't matter. just because you read the notes on the page in middle school, doesn't mean you read the music, there's more to music then jsut playing the written notes.
ok now i'm jsut going to say that i'm playing this and courtly airs and dances as well as Rolling Thunder this year for UIL and i am a TX band MIDDLE SCHOOL !!!! this is our UIL peices this year and i will have them on YOUTUBE so we can show the world teh beastly band that i am from
i play trombone and Rolling Thunder is probably the most fun peice to play in a full band or as a march but this is 12 to 14 year olds beasting this music so message me fro info and TX BANDS FING RULE!!!!!!!!
-sigh- I realize WHY you're putting all these comments on all these videos, but you could be a little more tact about it dude. Why don't you let me promote it? I'll probably do a better job at it.
Oh, for all the peeps out there, I go to the same school as trombonefrk1. Not just randomly annoying him.
ummm, I wouldnt get too excited about all of that given that it isnt exactly a hard piece. We learned it in a week. We did harder pieces in middle school.
if you could help me out on the tuba part... were going to do this piece for U.I.L and i need help... howcome the tubas only ccome in on sertain parts when on the piece i have i practicly play through the entire song?
man, i would subscribe - but i dont subscribe to anyone with this account. maybe once i get a new account. i'm going to make another one for when i start making more musical videos (like small ensembles and stuff)
i played in middle school honor band and we learned in 2 days with 3 other peices but ours was a different pitch and no quite as long so great job

Hard to tell the quality of the ensemble with such a poor quality recording.

you guys sound so good, but it seems really really slow to me..
The speed you guys ended on is just a little bit faster then the speed we started at..
Keira13 2 years ago
Thanks, we only had a week to prepare the music, so tempo was not a major priority, it was more tone/ability to play it
