12:43 trumpet player, picking his nose lol

Yeah, that space checks out

Would love to sit in the pit and just watch the musicians play this

OMG this Is a musical dream the ochestra Is perfect.

very nice !!

Is some of the music for the song “Phantom of the Opera” pre-recorded? I can't see who’s playing the organ sound

what kind of keyboards is down there

Why didn't they add a Hammond B3

This is beautiful I’d pay to watch the pit live if possible

how many performances do you do per show?

perfectly tuned toms. luscious

how do the cast see the conductor?

i open on the skins in about 2 weeks. no pressure.

I have one word for this.... FLAWLESS!!!!!!!

4:10 so epic!!

Sad they should be seen as well

didn't realise there were 3 keys players on this show!

Great brush work

How exactly does this work? Is this live? Is the stage audio pumped into this performance room and your audio goes through the theater speakers?

you are so good dave

8:15

Trombone I see you erasing as you go... Last day? sub? lol. nice work everyone. Edit - Just being able to conduct this is a performance in itself. The beginning of the book could say: Colla Voce - Entire book.

As a trumpet player we are considered egotistical and seeing the 2nd trumpet on his phone smh.

there patches notes of phantom of the opera

I wish I can hear the overture? Do you have it!?

That's my teacher

I work professionally in theatre and opening ceremonies and I’ve never a heard an amateur orchestra sound this good along with the two leads. Christine’s soprano voice is absolutely brilliant and rivals characters who have played that role around the world. She just needs to work on her lower range. Phantom is also very good!

10:58

If you are still answering questions, may I ask you what that *Velcro* (I think) sound was at 11:46 ? and thanks for the video it shows how much work has to be put into a performance like this

Lol I love how at the beginning of Think of Me, that trumpet player on the far right is just surfing social media.

too bad you couldnt upload the entire show ...... that was pretty awesome

Oh shit is it christmas already? Edit: too bad you didn’t get to use an acoustic kit though, is that cause of stage volume?

Can I ask why you're using a stiff grip? Normally I put a little more wrist and finger into it, especially on the hi-hats. Great video to watch!

Poor conductor, they're waving their arms for hours.

Raoul soundin pretty rough tbh

lmao someone is scrolling through his phone

0:52 are they supposed to play like that? or just out of pitch..?

Nice one man

I would not have known this was an amateur production if I hadn't read the comments

15:16-- did the note get missed?

Awesome :)

I saw this production!! Please tell me it was recorded, I’d LOVE to see it again!

👏👏👏👏👏

I love this video of The phantom of the opera.🤘🥳

more crowded than pooldeck on a cruiseship... How is it possible to play music in such conditions?

I notice a lot of the musicians seem to erase marks on their music. Can someone tell me why or what they're doing?

Do you have any tips

Fantastic point of view! So interesting for musical theatre lovers!

Really Useful should have never made the rights for this show available for high schools and amdram groups. The show is too good to be done half ass. This is a fine musical performance but there’s no way they would have had $50,000 to pump into costumes and staging to do it justice.

I'm planning to join an opera pit so this gave me an idea on what to expect. Thank you
