[Gamerboy678]

we were gonna do this song for festival but we have only a little bit of time left so instead we're playing where eagles soar which is pretty much exactly like this and it still pretty fun to play

[NastyZ100]

Amazing job. We're learning this song for our festival this year and I'm still working on all those eigth note runs. But anways good job. Ya'll sound beautiful.

ok, so the second part is written in cut for a reason. although this band is FANTASTIC and their sound is beautiful, balance is great, the conductor obviously did not rehearse the piece as prescribed by Reineke in his score. because the conductor conducted in four for the 2/2 part, he completely demolished any sense of flow, and pulse was then being put on all four beats, 1 2 3 4, as opposed to just 1 and 3, 1 (2) 3 (4).

ya dig?

and your timp for E flat is out sooo bad at :58, unless you were accidently hitting the wrong note and figured it out by 1:44 or just tuned it up, B flat was out but not by much.
