[corey2wynn]

i totally LOVE this song.

[nukynu0117]

my orchestra class also plays this song. i just want to say that the E natural was too low, but you all still did very well.

[monster9monster]

it starts out boring but gets better played it before

[HoTcHiC101ily]

the cellos seem a little out of tune in some parts. And the e naturals are a little out of tune also...

[rec324]

im playing this song for my orchestra group at bellingham high school

[JessACrossing]

we're also going to play this song tomorrow.. and lots more, D=

[ImLivinOffTheWall]

[ExtremeGrannyApple]

this orchestra is good, but the dynamic contrast could b better

[jcvideos00]

me and my class are playing this right now. pretty cool beans

[AfroViolins14]

I have a recording of me playing the cello and violin parts at the same time on my channel.

[sUpErBaD96]

we have to play this for U.I.L this year. i hope this song gets us the trophy

[ardviolin]

k this is awsome and im in that group we played it this year but it was really easy and the reason the violins over sound the chellos is because they cant play loud enough and there were about a good number of chellos, btw im a violin. and we played really well oh and the bass r there all the way in the back and theres 4 but still, no one wants to be one. and also this is the whole district and were in 6th but its really easy we learnd it in a week and i leard it in a day

[Mw2MiNiMaN]

[TheLaine123]

@tubtub2424 Me to

[darkdraco55]

I remember playing this for evaluations in 8th grade best grade possible and then over a year later I sit here playing without the music

[copycatcreature]

i play this song its so fun!!

[jromer89]

i played this and im in fifth grade

[vickylol81]

needs more dynamics. I can even play better than this in 5th grade! and im in 5th grade! u should learn what "dynamics" means. u missed a few of them, so it makes it half exciting as its supposed to be

[rajni9991]

@vickylol81 i tottally agree w/ u! they were supposed 2 start out piano! im playing this same piece im in sixth grade but that doesnt mean anything. they shoulve played the right kind of dynamics!

[XxWeezerforLifexX]

Needs more dynamics. If you're playing a song that is piano most of the time, your forte needs to be much louder than normal. It is more entertaining for an audience to listen to.

[rajni9991]

@XxWeezerforLifexX ikr totally agree w/ u

[Viola1059]

I also have to play this song for the all county orchestra festival, im nervous! This is an AWESOME group, hope my group is half this good.

[stopmessing1]

haha i remember thinking this song was awesome in 6th grade when we sight-read it.....

[hardydude25112]

[Miinnniie]

i love playing that song im taking it to UIL next week. ! xD

[dracoangelica]

I love how the instructor spend the first few seconds making the band instructor 'EYES UP HERE MY CHILDREN!!!' gesture. That takes me back to my middle school band days. I think the children do a really good job. Keep music in schools!

[MissErikawashere28]

i just started this in orchestra

[coolguya7]

im playing this!!!!

[xxmouse31xx]

the cellos are playing pizzacato u can't here them over the violins wen they do tht

[LilMitchInDaHouse]

No ofense but I was teaching this to the 6th and 7th grader

YOu should make it STICKYER

Like not all ways smooth

[Icestarpack]

OMG i iz playing this song @ sandy lake! sounds freaking aweshum! but i agree the cello and basses could be a bit louder and DYNAMICS DYNAMICS DYNAMICS

[lovetosing7]

im in 6th grade and were palying this song!! i think the chellos have been a bit louder. i couldnt really here them. but great job!!!!

[LovesHimLikeWhoaa]

Pretty good but not very many dynamics

because it's supposed to be like you're in the desert on a camel haha.

Wow i feel suckish.

I'm in 7th grade and we're playing this song.

[drumsxsoccer687888]

The entire A section is supposed to be quiet but the whole song was at the same volume and there was supposed to be a cello solo at 1:20

[drumsxsoccer687888]

The entire A section of the song is supposed to be quite but the entire song was played at the same volume and there is supposed to be a cello solo at 1:20 not the entire orchestra

[ElectroTech7]

Lol this piece brings back memories from my Winter concert. I was playing finger cymbals for this piece and I was of a beat for the first 10 measures. To make things worse, I was lost and so was my partner playing the tambourine part so we just guessed and got it right on time for the end :)

[sweetreatcaramel]

The cellos sounded kind of wimpy and the es wernt flat enough at the end the plucking went way to fast i bet their parents were dissapointed just kidding

[GossipGirl7467]

ha, it sounds so easy. But I've never played it. I'm playing Joust and Shadow Dance right now. ugh.

[bluekittylover3]

It isn't as easy as it looks But still is PRETTY easy.

[HaloDarkAgent]

i also am playing this, and other music. Sontine for string, Russian music box ,and primivto

[bluekittylover3]

I am also playing this, on the violin.

[GossipGirl7467]

Violin? ha, I play that! Viola's keep on making fun of us. How bout you? ha, Well violins are so much better(:

[bluekittylover3]

Yeah, the fourth grade viola players make fun of the fifth grade violins too. Saying that we think we think violins are better than violas since there aren't any viola players in my music class. But hey, it's true.

[milkaantoriano]

Im in 6th grade and i'm also playing this piece its one of my favorites were also playing gargoyles !!!!

[bluekittylover3]

"Gargoyles?" I really like this piece though. And I am in 5th grade.

[KataStraficalHeaven]

Their E's aren't flat enough, and it's rushed.

[PenguinRulerofAnt]

Is it me or are they playing a bit to fast? Yes I think its a little rushed.

[bluekittylover3]

Really, I think so too. I mean, it isn't the same ote as what I pla, is it supposed to be that way. i mean, some are playing just a bit different Good video though.

[PenguinRulerofAnt]

I agree. :)

[PenguinRulerofAnt]

Im in sixth grade and Im playing this peice I play the violin. I love this song!

[LilShuggles]
