Ahh no oboe?

[MrMec3]

they played it really slow to me it seems like we played it 20beats faster

[Socksthevilkitten]

We're playing this and I CANNOT hit the high notes at the end. I play trombone...:(

@TheSexyPanda420 this song is really easy for basson, but for alto sax 1 it takes at least one time sight reading it

[TheSexyPanda420]

this song is really easy ( I'm a bassoon player) considering that my band is 7th and 8th grade Troy middle school symphonic band

[desipes0417]

im sorry this is too slow....we went way faster when my band played it...sorry just some critisism...anyways pretty good job...

[Darkmastersith888]

mm, some notes were very out of tune, and is it just me or did the oboe sound like a clarinet? not to mention that loud squeak...

[Hahapancakes]

Playing this song on the piccolo is awful. We come in at such random places. And the timing is so stupid and demented.

[bizcuthead]

yes. i have to play it tomorrow for my band's concert. This piece is challenging i feel. But i enjoyed it. It has a really fun and beautiful French Horn part :D

Um, actually it's incredibly difficult with technical things. I have the sheet music in front of me, and I've counted 37 time signature changes, and some of them are in groups of one bar of 3/4, one bar of 4/4, two bars of 3/4, one of 4/4, one of 3/4, one of 4/4, one of 3/4, one of 2/4 and one of 4/4. There are also extremely odd places where other instruments come in that are very unexpected, and many many accidentals.
