i'm horribly late to the party, but since i've at least watched the vid, all i can say is that this particular run sounded like your tubist was napping. Timing and tuning were off, but at least it sounded pretty good. one of my favorite songs to play in any ensemble :)
The balance started off pretty bad, but then the entire thing started to get pretty good, I think. The camera diminished the quality, I just think the strings section could be a bit louder.
LMAO You 'sound better' because you have a larger band, which means you can hide your mistakes better... duhh. Ohh, you're in junior high! I can tell.
I may bae a couple months late saying this but you really need to go see someone about your aditude. i mean im playing the same song and we dont have strings playing with us...BUT YOU DONT HAVE TO ACT LIKE AN ASS ABOUT!!!! THAT LAST SENTENCE JUST REALLY PISSED ME OFF!!! XE
I played this at solo contest and got a 1+ in 7th grade. Plus i got first in region. It's really fun, but I actually like it with band and strings. I wish a full orchestra would record it. Are you guys middle school? If so, good enough. But maybe focus more on balance and I know your band director won't really read this comment, im not stupid.
that's what I was just thinking. I don't get it really- I mean, my highschool played this song and there was no cutting corners. We played everything; but all of the videos i have seen thus far have simplified the song. o.O
We played this in are band ((Well, a whole bunch of band together))
Its fun :)

I remember playing this song back in Middle School. It was a fun one and also one of my favorites.
I don't know if it's supposed to sound like this because you could have changed it a bit, but you guys aren't sound too good.
People are off from each other and there's some bad tuning going as well.
Good try though! :]

Wow, you really don't know anything about being friendly do you? There's a thing called constructive criticism. Learn it instead of being an ass.
And if you're so much better, I want to hear it.
Don't say anything if you can't even back it up.

Sure you can. My band doesn't have one string instrument in it and we do a fine job with it in my eyes.
