Spring concert 2007 at my high school. 130+ people in the band. The lead french horn was sick so they sound terrible, please forgive them. Also, please ignore the camera, two mothers were fighting over the controls, the music is what counts.
There were 6 rivaling schools combined with music. The band consisted of 10 flutes, 3 oboes, 9 clarinets, 3 bass clarinets, 1 bassoon, 6 alto saxes, 2 tenor saxes, 2 bari saxes, 9 trumpets, 4 french horns, 6 trombones, 4 euphoniums, 6 tubas, 7 percussionists. The songs we played were Abracadabra by Frank Ticheli, Rain by Brian Balmages, Caribbean Rondo by Pierre La Plante, Pentland Hills by Jimmy Howe, Song for Lyndsay by Andrew Boysen Jr, The Sousa Scramble by John Philip Sousa arr. Paul Murtha
I was in the Michigan All-State Band this year, must say, we were approximately 300 times better.
