  • HOLY COW THATS FAST

  • wow there good, or practiced a lot. We are currently going to play this piece for our concert,and our xylophoest is the best ever. if you listen at 2:31 and listen closely, you can hear it. If you get the chance to listen to just the xylophone part,its absolutely amazing. And not to "advertise" here but if you do want to hear it, check out my channel on February 8th,2011 or anytime after and i should have a video up of the amazing xylophone part.

  • we freaking rocked this in branson :)

    btw, GO SEE THE CATS PAJAMAS! THEY ARE FLIPPING AMAZINGGGG!!! <3

  • wow my band is actually playing tht song but not as fast b/c were only in 8th grade

  • is there a bari sax in your band? If so then your band is awesome. If not, then you band is.. pretty good. lol. bari sax ftw

  • Amazing!! Love the tempo change in measure 35! Great precussion!! I played this last year and always thought it should go faster, and you guys did! Brilliant! Is it sad to day I'[m the band dork who whipped out their music and played allong? Either way, just marvelous!

  • my high school band is going down to branson on october 14th, we're going to be playing before the show called Cats Pajamas. the clarinet part that starts at measure 40, i think it does, i currently don't have my music with me, but that was hard to learn, but i finally mastered it yesterday:)

  • With this our concert band play it the same speed as after the drums

  • Playing this son at the moment, the score says a lot faster at the start though, good effort though!

  • lol at the fast part the conductor looks like they are dancing lol. i agree a bit too fast at the beginning and end and a bit too slow in the middle

  • @kissiegissie

    shut up. if you are soooooooooo good post a video of you playing the 1st trumpet part.

  • Im 1st trumpet in my school band, and this song is TOUGH (: Im in 8th grade. Just got this song today, I dont think I've put down the sheet music for the past 6 hours other than to watch this video. Im diggin the performance, especially how fast it gets at about 2:50 :D

  • @MattHeinen97 my school band is playing that song too... and it is EASY.... i am a 6th grade!

  • this song is awesome. we are playing it right now for our band and we cant stop playing it cuz we love it so much. its just a great piece

  • Great song.  I'm playing it now in my Band

  • This solo gives me chills.

  • I play this in my schools concert band but we have to play the first part 3 times as fast!!! Its not fair!!!

  • 1:52

  • We played this in AOSFB this summer! I love it.

  • Fantastic piece of music Well Done

  • my school band played this, but a simplified version xD

    This is like,

    Amazing :D

  • what level is this piece?

  • tomorrow I´ll play this with my orchestra! I play the clarinet and I´m really afraid of my solo :P

  • i actually love this song, one of my favourite pieces ever

  • My junior high band is doing this piece right now. I play first trumpet in this . Alone. And have only been playing since grade 7 and am currently in grade 9 . This is soo hard to play . Anyone have tips to help me out a little? I've almost mastered this part tho. But truly, this is a tough gig.

  • @jbutterbrinkle

    Well, I don't know if you've had to perform already or if you've mastered it yet, but basically just let your fingers do the work for you. I know I've been playing for 6 years, but...really all the notes are just chromatic. So, whatever feels right, will most likely be right in this song.

  • the begining should be slow.. we play this song. it is fun.. exciting.... good job..

  • the end was a good speed but the start was to slow for my liking. played well though :)

  • Holy... we NEVER played this song this fast when we learned it for our high school concert. I'm surprised it didn't fall apart. Good show. :)

  • lol trying hard on this song i'm playing the drumset part! i have to play a 16 beat part

  • that is lovely, just what I need on the Sabbath

  • 2:30 - 2:51 = EPIC WIN.

  • wer playing this for marching band:) it doesnt soon exactly like this, but similar to it.

  • in our band the first part is played slightly faster and the second part we build up speed it sound slightly more mysterious

  • yae in our band there are this many people and we play it faster way faster. I think it just sounds better.

  • how the &#@&!@ can you play it faster then this?!

  • din't get me wrong i really love this song and you played it well I just like the faster version. And we play faster than this with lots and lots of practice :) btw i know i cant spell :P

  • Does anyone know where I can buy this arrangement?

  • Comment removed

  • It's too boring at that speed!

  • so slow! we take it twice that speed

  • this video doesn't show it very well but there are lots and lots and lots and lots of us

    which makes it very hard to take it any faster

    xx

  • Why should the fact that there are many musicians mean it's hard to play fast?

  • You're right! It's sooooooooooooooooooooo slow!

  • haha awesommmeee :)

  • lol i'm playing this song at schoool :)

  • same here ;D

    its awesome

  • We have the exact sheet music for this one and in 1:04 they're supposed to play faster (not as fast as the ending part though) and stay on the same tempo through the song. But they are proffesionals so maybe we're wrong.

  • lol we're really not professionals but its a piece we often used to play at fates and stuff so its more our own version.

  • Max you sexilicious beast, we clearly are pros, and you know it.

    We don't get paid though :(

  • eventho it sounds awesome,it was tonnes better live!

    let's do even better this year. Lion king : )

  • I play this piece in my school band, not the county band I played Mazama in. IMO, the flute solo was a wee bit fast, and the next section was wee tad too slow, then the next section a wee bit too fast, but thats my conductors take on it! This is excellent! How many people play 1st tpt in this band, cause in both my bands (county & school), i am 1 of 3?

  • Well i can't remeber exactly how many trumpets but it's more than 10! :)

  • i was one of the trumpets : D

    i practised every night for 3 months to get it right : )

  • @euanofscotland06

    I play first part trumpet in my band and we have 3 on first, 2 on second, and 2 on third.

    We're the symphonic band, but we had to pick an easy piece to spit out for our concert that we have less than 4 weeks to rehearse for, haha. This director takes everything either slower or way faster than my director. I like our style better personally, haha.

  • @euanofscotland06 i played 1st trumpet in my concert band today, and it was amaaazing!!!

  • I AM ONE OF THE BELLSTICK (tambourine) players.

    I WAS NOT OUT OF TIME!!!

  • Absoloutely amazing performance. I even put this on my i-pod! :P

    I play the drum kit with this song - What do you guys use at 1:50? It's very thunderous and loud. Nice job :)

  • probably timpani's or something equally as large, as well as all the tambourine-looking things across the left flank

  • we play this exact same music i believe...you guys did a great job..i would've been very nervous to be the 1st flute in the beginning

  • we play it a little faste,r but you guys are awesome omg

  • you play it FASTER? Awesome

  • Lol, awesome, yes, but..who said we play it good? Haha, I can abrely get my part. HORNS UNITE!

  • ohmygod so fast.

  • whoa, nice.

  • woop-tee-fricking-dee!

    we were awesome.

    enough said

    fitzy

  • wayhay! I played in this too. Well done everyone, loved the xylaphone playing! we did great in Mazama too!

  • My brother played the Clarinet in this, and I got the opportunity to watch this live! It was amazing!

  • i played in it XD

  • although you can't see me - I was sitting on the side of the stage watching this!!

    fantastic performance guys - next year school's prom??

  • You guys play it niceley, but the picc solo at the start was kinda too fast for it. We played it too.

  • well, we were under a strict time limit.

  • WE rule.. . grrr newport *shakes fist* well done guys especially those little bell stic guys. who is it that posted the vids?
