  • I liked it. Even though it's not that deep, good music is good music.

  • @hancelotto That wasn't the point at all. Look at that piece from a compositional standpoint, and you'll see there's not much there. All gimmick and no substance.

  • I feel pity for the string players. LOL! Interesting concept. Creative!

  • I would be honored to have him play with my school's orchestra no matter what the notes are.

  • @miamigurl123 you can't always have the awesome solo's so suck it up gurl.

  • Yeah, this piece was awful but the concept was great

  • This tried to combine modern pop beatbox techniques with a classical orchestral model.

    It's a combusted explosion of two good ideas that turns out bad.

    Like fruit-cake.

  • speechless...you're amazing

  • Lol the beatboxing guy is like rocking out and the conductor is like standing there conducting like its a normal classical piece.

  • Is it true that Greg is janette Mccurdy's cousin :b just wonderin..... I know they might now be cousins though....
