We played this as the 3rd band in college and we took this tempo. Bassoons couldn't get the rhythms in 1:45. Sounds muddy probably because of the acoustics of whatever building they played in.

I say they did very well. Very nice sounds coming from a junior high band.

First of all, the whole peice was at least 20 beats under tempo, articulaiton wasn't great; very muddy. This is what you'd expect from a Juinor High, but good job on the slow middle section except for the tamberine player...

Good overall, but the sax was rushing...this is my solo this year, and he played it pretty well, but REALLY rushed. The whole piece was very "rushy". Just a bit of critiquing. Very good job, overall, though!

It most spots I couldn't hear the moving parts, and in some places you rushed. The balance wasn't too good, I had trouble hearing the piccolo part. Some parts were muddy sounding, but overall it was pretty good. My band is playing this right now. I'm play the piccolo for the piece. It's very fun.
