@hernandeza88 Dude, chimes are the worst to read and watch the conductor on. I am always shifting them around trying in vain to find a position to see the conductor from.
-
@kimlongvo You are absolutely right! There is a measure missing before the last chime part! It kept on messing me up at first and my band director kept on getting frustrated at me for playing before my part. Now, I finally have it, though!

-
as a horn player i'd have to say the best part is the intro lol. def one of my fave pieces to play. and beautifully composed.
-
@hernandeza88 I just memorized that chime part. It's not that long, and then it's one less thing to have to watch. (Was it only the print version I had, or is there a missing measure in that percussion part at the end right before the last Chime part?) O.o

Favorite piece I EVER PLAYED!! The time signature changes n crazy rhythms made it challenging. love all the overlapping melodies but overlapping vibe, xylo & bells' at 1:20 were soo hard! I personly found the chime part at 4:06 challenging! It's so hard to read music, watch the director and play chimes simultaneously! I triedd because all the notes just seem so random! Lol BUT I STILl LOVED PLAYING THIS!!! And I finally go those hard parts down! :)
