This is an amazing job done by a high school orchestra. My high school couldn't get this done at this quality at all. My congratulations to this group! They're really good enough to be put up next to a college orchestra.
God I hate hi-hats. (see 3:15) It creates a constant "flat" dynamic (not flat as in off-pitch, but flat as in no changes in feeling). Just constant, flat-line sound. Without the moving swells, all emotional power is gone, and replaced with cheesy pop quality.
Worse, the hi-hats just HAD to come in at the section that demanded the MOST emotional power. That's just poor musical arrangement.
Specialist - Aloha from Hawaii and thanks for taking a bit of your time to view this clip. We know what you really meant to say - you would prefer the beginning to be played slower, but overall it was a great performance by a public HIGH SCHOOL orchestra. Your critique of this performance is appreciated.
Great job, but it just seems strange not to open with the big BUM BUM in the opening scene, but thats just me

woodwinds need to play louder in general.
Wonderful conductor, he looks like someone who has 20+ years of experience. I like how he conducts large so is readable to everyone, or section.

the beginning sounds dumb as fast as they played it should be half the speed...
