  • Really, really good, satisfying performance, perfect tempo.  Very impressive for a high school orchestra, particularly.

  • Although they sound good, this song was played entirely too fast. If they went a little bit slower and played the song more conservatively to gave each note attention instead of slopping some of the runs together like they don't matter, the piece would sound fantastic. I'm not saying they don't sound good - they're just playing this at a tempo out of their league.

  • hindemith=bach on drugs

  • those 2nd violins need some work.... but otherwise pretty good

  • @drumminchick87 indeed but the piece is noted for it to be performed faster than the ensemble performing.

  • Mr. Horimoto!

  • WOW! This is definitely one of the best high school orchestras I've ever heard.

    The performance, as organized and note-perfect it may have been, was quite dull. From what I see, this seems to be partially the fault of the conductor, who seemed to be quite dull.

    However, other than that one very picky subjective interpretational thing, this is a most marvelous performance! Bravo! 5 stars.

  • I was only a little Froshie when we did this :D 5th period was the most fun this year... :)

  • here we have a fine example of how an excellent orchestral composer was Hindemith, being a progressist musician during his younger years, he then moved on to neoclassicism being his model mainly Bach,

  • haha i was 3rd chair viola for this piece at this skewl. we played the 1812 Overture last year and it was so much better
