I had the great pleasure to work with Mr. Hazo at ONU Music Camp... He is one amazing conductor...

[FlyingFreak67]

My band plays this. It sounds more like a tribute to the Na'vi people than it does to Rosa Parks... ZA RAY ZA RAY!!!!!

i love this song we played it for marching band it was the greatest! anyone know were or if there would be a mp3 of this?

[HolyAngemon007]

@pivotfriendsstudio i'll tell u a way but u have to download a software (dont worry there are no viruses, i give u my word)

type "dvdvideosoft"on google, go to their site and download "youtube to mp3"

it is very simple and easy to use

Sang this for music camp (O.N.U. FYI) lol and we combined it with vocalists (Choir) Strings (Orchestra) and Symphonic band (Obvi) but it was amazing and I always ball me eyes out at 2:52 lol this is a wonderfull piece! I would like to mention Mr Hazo worked with us what an amazing man I hope i get the chance to work with him again!

[MaestraInTraining1]

@Dancingfool721 Oh yes! I LOVED working with Mr. Hazo and everyone. It makes me cry too! I am sure we will all see him again in the somewhat near future!

[UseYourHeadAndHeart]
