  • @Haritonov46 Quarter Note= 112 in the score, but performance tempo with orchestra Quarter Note= 120-126 (my understanding). Audition Quarter Note= 122-132

  • That is one of the sweetest renditions I've ever heard of this excerpt. It's a beast to play and you make it look like it's as easy as breathing.

  • Nice!!!

  • Awesome playing man, ignore the haters - I think I speak for every percussionist on the planet when I say this is a nightmare of an excerpt I thought you played it very well.

  • @armswim10

    Once again: in the case of this excerpt there is no such a thing as "too fast tempo". The faster - the better.

  • @Haritonov46 Why don't you put a recording of your excerpt online? Then we can decided if your tempo is correct..it will most likely be too fast. 

  • @armswim10: "So here I am..."

    Sorry, but I don't give a fuck about where you are.

  • @Haritonov46 You sure don't. So here I am, writing above your reading level.

  • @armswim10

    Too many words and too little sense. Nevertheless I don't tell you: GO AWAY.

    You have all rights to babble on in here.

  • @Haritonov46 No, simply a request for you to reconsider your facts in relation to this excerpt. I would like to now jump on @bucksnbucks band wagon and agree 100% with him and honestly most of the percussion community. Just because you think you may have a larger percussion penis than the rest of us, does not mean that you truly do. Shall we "whip them out" and decide? So in short...go away...say what you will, but @UKperc11 has a kick ass recording and will probably win an audition before you
