Middle schoolers are very testy when it comes to what people say on the internet. Chill out. It's not the fact that you're not good, it's just that there is a lot of maturing left to do. Your tone, embrochure & technique change as you get older-resulting in better overall musicality and musicianship. There are somethings that only come with lots of time & practice.

@iloveInuYasha650  what band were you in?

[Drum23Major]

My Middle School band played this song also. And I know ya'll might say that it might not of sound good or as well as this, but we sounded amazing we got all 1's at U.I.L and won the Middle School National Band award. I was also the 1st chair saxophone in the band(yall might think that i sucked but I was the 1st chair saxophone in the High School All-State Band as a 7th grade which was the year we did this piece. Most of our first chairs made made the all-state band

Like other people have said, just because you can play a song doesn't mean you can play it with the right techniques and with such skill as an All-State band can. You have a lot of maturing to do if your in Middle School, trust me, I know.

[VivaLaTrumpet]

How many other trumpet players were tere? Please guess?

[VivaLaTrumpet]

Hey trombone player. when you were there, can you estimate how many other trombone players were there?  Also estimate how many trumpet players were there as well?

[wowJn95]

my MIDDLE SCHOOL band played this, so beast

[guitarmankev1]

My high school band played this, but there's a lot more instruments and parts in this band haha. Sounds way cooler.

[crsoccerstar26]

Your trumpets are not good then because the trumpet part is so easy in this song...

[clarinetmike88]

If you know Stephan Gage, he is director of Bands at Youngstown. Plays this song at every show he is in. I had him at Regions and honors and this piece was at both... Amazing Man, but this song is aweful....

[iloveInuYasha650]

omg my band is playing this for our concert opener and everyone..and i mean EVERYONE in the band EXCEPT the band director hates this song with a burning passion. Yet he's forcing us to play it anyway because he thinks it's sooo 'cool'. and i thinks its good, when our band doesn;t play it. I hate all the 16th-note runs the clarinets have to do..it kills me.
