8th grade orchestra - "Smoke on the Water"

[saulonascimento93]

Solo ? '-'

[skyblu179]

5 people don't know what this is.

[KittyRokher]

My ears. They bleed.

[rafaelpenacho]

Just amazing! It's nice to see young people performing such a masterpiece from the 70's while other teenagers prefer to listen to Lady Gaga and Beyoncé. And they're also great musicians. Congratulations.

I'm playing this on my violin!!

[hughman174]

@143SERV and typing?! you ARE good! lol

[vidsppl]

I played this song. Im a viola but its too fast

[0lifes]

too fast



[rafaelpenacho]

@0lifes Faster then Deep Purple's version, indeed. But as the result was quite good, I don't believe they performed it "too fast".

[peace4111]

It was good, but the actual song doesnt start till 1:01

[vidsppl]

[Flamenizzle]

[saskaenarut1]

@Flamenizzle yea xD it sounded like ther was an electric violin playing the solo and not the guitar.

[Lif3isMus1c]

[MegasMkX]

[TayTay1383]

I play viola and I had to do this in 6th I got skills actually I'm pretty sure I sucked monkey but everybody else said it was good

[hughman174]

haha

[WRITEfluidity]

The did excellent for 8th graders, I remember playng the songs my 8th grade year, but it was sea chanty, difficult piece. What's hard about playing songs like these, is often the beats are faily confusing, but she (and the rest) did wonderful. You should be so proud. I wish My ochestra director would chose something the audiance won't fall asleep to, like bohimiun rhapsody. Tell her to continue to play, there's nothing like high school orchestra. (sophmore in high school here, playing 7 years!)

[hughman174]

thanks. she's really starting to enjoy it in high school now. she's been playing for 4 years and plays in church every service

[sillygirlie006]

my 8th grade orchestra's playing this too! but it's an extra thing after school 9a rock group 4 orchestra) so we wont actually perform it :(

[hughman174]

thanks. she plays the violin

[Denfer1000]

I'm in 7th grade and I have the music piece right here and right now. I wanna know how to play the whole song right lol........ Awsome job!.......
