@Bluekid239 excuse me, that should be LACKING in the lower parts, not laking. It's late, I'm tired. To clarify, i can't hear the men too well. Either make the women a little quieter or give the men more self confidence. That should do it. I would have clarified in the comment but I ran out of characters to use.
I think the the worst part about this was the instrumentals. OH GOSH that was HORRIBLE. Vowels were a slight problem for the choirs, but notes seemed pretty good. Pickups weren't the best, but pretty darn good. Work on balance, it seemed a little laking in the lower parts. Not too bad for a high school. Hopefully early next year there'll be a good recording of the TMEA choir (ochestra?), as we're doing this for our auditions. Choir's fine. Instrumentals, not so much. Work on them. (lol Kneebone)
this crap sucks. come and listen to Fike High School. Not only are the instrumentals better are vocals kick your ass. we are going to get a video up on youtube pretty soon.
Maybe they're trying to challenge the students and raise the standards of the ensemble? I as a student pressured our band director into selecting a piece that was way over our heads. But we learned it and sounded pretty good performing it.
Certainly not perfect, but not friggin' bad for a high school. The number of people on stage are approximately the size of my entire high school. :) Thanks for posting!
Taller vowels. Lovely sound, nice energy. Watch pitch on "Et in tera pax". Would like to hear more dynamics. Just a litlle bit more diction. Orchestra needs work. Watch pitch on "Gratias". Overall excellent job! Very impressive for a High School orchestra!...find a new trumpet:)
