@RedSaturne the E string is supposed to be tuned down.

[emikohayashi4912]

@Blackwhite2277 yeah, the E string should be tuned to a E flat.

The winds sounded better than the strings...and the soloist was quite good. But somehow the rest of the strings sounded... But it's quite good :)

Listening depends on the maturing of the musician and even my high school band lacked that skill. So giving these guys kudos for stepping out there is not out of line!

@TheAislinn23 You make that sound like a bad thing...

@balletwb94

Haha, yeah :p

When a friend of mine had a concert, a little child said at the end, when it was totally quiet: "weeeewiiiiboooo"

Haha, it was hard not to laugh, but it was so cute, haha, anyway: nobody had coughed when that happend ;)

I had to memorize this in music in my school

[balletwb94]

why is there always someone coughing? haha :P

@bckm54 He was okay, and you're right, kids can't play very well. In my experience this piece requires a group that's willing to listen to one another.

@Kabooska I love this piece. Bit of a bitch to play at first. But yes, the E string is supposed to be tuned flat for the soloist. :)

[Myumeful]

I don't get it, what is so bad about this? They're kids and some violins are playing too high.

I wish my highschool was this good.
