  • this is mine and my friend's first year playing with the high school and were playing this for concert festival. (i play alto sax and she plays bassoon) she described the 16th notes as hand rape

  • @N1NJAGAMERS You know what else is sad? How you can't use the word 'for' properly in a sentence... Just saying.

    By the way, faster isn't always better.. Considering they're a college band, I'm POSITIVE that they could play this 20x faster if they really wanted to. Besides, I'm sure their articulation and style was much better than your band's was if you guys really played it that much faster... Just saying i play clarinet :)

  • Hate this piece... no it isn't because I can't play it yet.

  • this piece... for french horn... oh my god.

  • @LightHikaru1 There's a flute solo in there?

  • @deeaplw

    Ours doesn't have an arranger :O AND IM IN HIGH SCHOOL!!! OHHHHNOOOOOOOES!

  • Alright, I just want to say That I agree with paulina1330 that this piece is hand rape, utterly. We are playing this piece for Kiwanis. I have only been playing my instrument for 7 months now, and I can play half of this piece(some problems with the eighths) already. Oh and by the by, I am a bass clarinet player, soooo beat that....

  • The 2nd band at my school out of 4 is reading through this next week :) I'm not in it though, Im in the top band

  • @SupaSileena We won state the honor band award.

  • @bobwashere66 Holy shit, my college is playing this. Your middle school is fu-mazing.
