Dont mind me, just jumping in between chimes, bells, and vibes. Dont mind me running around in the back. Also dont mind the other mallet percussionist who stays on marimba
You are literally me right now. Seriously, I play Bells, Chimes, Then Vibe. Then we have the girl in the corner of the band room who is supposed to play Marimba, but she's to busy texting her boyfriend.
This was my last middle school song, and corna had to cancel LGPE and the concert😭😭😭😭 I still play it today and am making it better with technical support of myself
When I played this song my 7th grade year of middle school during All County, I was 9th chair trombone. I was so nervous that I completely bombed my audition. In 1 year, I jumped up to 3rd chair. Then all of high school my band director made me sign up for All county and All State, but I let my nervousness get the best of me and I couldn’t audition, I couldn’t even drive myself to the auditions. He, then later on she (we got a new band director my senior year) told me that with out a doubt, I would have made at the least 5th chair. Which that made me feel better, but I just couldn’t do it. I was first chair trombone my senior year, but I always asked for second part because that’s what I was most comfortable playing with.
Abby Mihelic I have a similar story. I was like last year trumpet last hear then I jumped tremendously. I auditioned for all state and made it in! But the corona got it cancelled. I cried so hard because of it. This piece was one of the last ones I got to play in an honor band before corona
@@elised7915 I was 11 chair trumpet this year in the concert band and I jumped up to 5th chair in my school's wind ensemble(high band), only the 2nd chair, 3rd chair and me from concert band moved up
I played this right before covid, it was a shame we never finished it. i was percussion and i loved how this piece doesn’t forget about percussion unlike other middle school pieces
+Donnie Gingry good for you. that doesn't give you the authority to pick on people you don't know. that person could've been a beginner. don't go hurting people's feelings. thanks. continue with your clarineting
Can a tenor sax player be lead saxophone in a jazz ensemble? In my jazz ensemble, there are 3 saxes (4 pretty soon), and I've been in there the longest and have better skills than the rest of the saxophones (even though I only have been playing sax for 2 full years). And by the way, there are 2 tenors and an alto in my group (a bari sax pretty soon). Do you think a tenor sax can be lead sax?
it is currently Saturday the 21st and i have my symphonic band concert (10th grade) on the 25th where im playing clarinet on this piece ill comment back here in a few days and tell how it went
Second Trombone, and it still doesn't sound great without the percussion. (idk I love percussion as much as I love my own instrument) also I'm doing this for LGPE pray for my soul Just had full ensemble practice. I love measure 51! My best friend (I've known her for 7 years) is a saxophone and we love this piece
My First Look on this was today and i‘m worried but aswell challanged to work with this nice sheet of music as an Mallet Player. This is going to be a hard but fun time till december 💀
There is this one kid who SUCKS at playing the saxophone(Can't even steady his airstream) And he's 2nd chair making me 3rd chair. It makes me really angry because I have heard him playing, he's heard me and we both know i'm better.(What's also worse is that he has a crush on me -_-)
This is great when I played it in. Nelenentry school we perfected it my high school couldn’t even play this so I ended up going to a different school lmao
@@jaceritchie7948 Hey, I know a marching band with 10 people. We have 60 people in our symphonic band and we ended up NOT playing this for a festival. I rather have a smaller band that listens and with people that know what there doing than a bigger band that can't get their crap together...
On the piece, it says to play the tambourine with sticks, meaning you would need to do it with one hand and if your chops aren't fast enough, it would hurt real bad lol. So me, playing crash cymbals and having a break there, I would grab the tambourine and hold it up for the guy next to me so he could use two sticks :') it was great but ya do whatcha gotta do lmao
@@tenzorex Welp I managed to teach myself this one but couldn’t get the other three down and well, I just ended up not going. It was just a high school football game, I didn’t have to attend as I’m in Junior High and it was required.
@@tonyflamingo8963 Dang, I have this song and some others for my local community band and it sounds amazing, feelsbad abt not being able to get those down tho
We are playing this in our schools wind ensemble. When we first started, there were not enough percussionists signed up, so I somehow ended up learning the chime part, bell part, xylophone marimba and vibraphone part. And somehow played the important parts all at once. So yeah a lot of running lol
If your percussion you already know this song was lit.
i was timpini and yes
hell yeah
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
bells here this song is lit
timpani part was lit af
1:19 as a flute player, this part is AMAZING and honestly i love the buildup and crescendo
I play the marimba part for this, THOSE FEW MEASURES ARE AWESOME. Also measure 71 to 83 or so is so cool
I play it too!
Same I was clarinet
Dont mind me, just jumping in between chimes, bells, and vibes. Dont mind me running around in the back. Also dont mind the other mallet percussionist who stays on marimba
Penguin Paridise literally me. We aren’t playing this song, but I’m the only mallet percussionist worth a damn in my band who ever actually tries
Max Behymer anyone tuba in thse comments, no just me
You are literally me right now. Seriously, I play Bells, Chimes, Then Vibe. Then we have the girl in the corner of the band room who is supposed to play Marimba, but she's to busy texting her boyfriend.
Oof
i have to play the snare drum which is like xxxxxxtremley hard
Love this song. I regret throwing away all my Middle School music😭😭
This was my last middle school song, and corna had to cancel LGPE and the concert😭😭😭😭 I still play it today and am making it better with technical support of myself
Middle school!?!? I first heard this played by a high school honors band.
@@Samm084 Now I'm intrigued. I'm curious as to what honors band it was.
I had to give it back, keeping it wasn’t an option
I hated that I had to give it back
I am first trumpet and I LOVE this song!

Clarinet 1 for the win!!!! I really really really like this song❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm a trombonist and I played this 2 years ago lmao. My school doesn't do chairs but I generally have 1st and sometimes 2nd.
Playing this a couple months ago for the winter concert at my school... good memories...
I played 3rd clarinet on this piece and I still love it
This song is just amazing. Not sure how else to put it. Wow.
I play 2nd sax on this piece and irs one of my favorite songs in band this year
So we got this before quarantine and I learn based on listening to others... this helps so much 😄

This song is the best song I have for my spring concert at my middle school (2020 January I play Flute)
Bro lol you found my comment
Hey wait
Some of the band friends found is finding my comment
Can a tenor sax player be lead saxophone in a jazz ensemble?

And by the way, there are 2 tenors and an alto in my group (a bari sax pretty soon). Do you think a tenor sax can be lead sax?
Generally no, Generally the first alto is the lead player. I guess if there were no lead alto then it would be lead tenor.
You could, though it is generally an alto. You can ask the director.
Bro I feel you. Just play pink panther lol
This sounds like a 70's sitcom theme.
tf kinda sitcoms are you watching
Me: bad at sight reading
Band teacher: okay pull out the new song

1:24 is so good
Percussion either makes a band or ruins it, the percussion in this band makes the song better without a doubt.
watch it
when we played this song us percussionist were in time but the saxophones kept dragging or rushing in their feature
