I'm currently rising up to 11th grade.. I played this in 6th grade... and I can confirm our performance sounded much better.. we were only playing our instruments for two years too.
yes... posture is off and violins are not playing dianamics right. Violas are sloppy and so are violins. Also ive never heard such a quiet group of cello.
Constructive criticism The start is like mf, not mp, bigger dynamic contrast, pick the tempo up a bit, move with the cellos and basses, they are your friends!!
im a freshman now and i guess the other middle school did this but my school never did so we did it for playday in orchestra last week and ive never sight read a song so good i played it perfectly and i had never played or even seen the piece before im so mf proud of myself just wanted to share
I'm an orchestra and we made that beat drop fortissimo, my Orchestra teacher thought that the song with smack way harder if we dug all the way the string and I love it. I also have a very very very large Orchestra with around 80 people making this cut way deeper
I feel so bland listening to this, none of the students look devoted into the music. It looks like they're all just trying too hard, to be able to play with emotion, you've got to be natural. The students look so stiff and its not very pleasing to watch.
And the sound even projects that, too. It sounds underwhelming, bored, and dull, and I was honestly surprised at how the conductor ignored this when they were playing. They also started off too strong, and just kind of gave up until the very ending. The second violinist in the very back is the embodiment of how the piece sounds during this performance, honestly.
Great job! There’s just some things that are easy fixes. Posture, there are some people that don’t even have their instrument under their jaw bone it’s at their chest, it’s just sitting there. Their playing over the fingerboard and their shoulders are moving the bow not the arm which causes that. The intonation should be worked on with some scales.
No movement, one dude has his instrument down in front of him, not the edge of their seats, I played this in 6th grade and we played better than this, more passionately, properly sitting. It's just sad. If they tried their best then they need to get an easier song. 2/10
These guys are straight fucking dead I'm in fourth grade I started two years ago viola and I can play !st violin part way better than anything this orchastra can do
I'm in 7th grade and we are playing this orchestra song

Saaaame and its soooo easy but awesome
+Dominique Williams lol, I'm also in grade 7, and we already played this for LGPE concert.
I'm in 6th and it's really easy
That girl in the back row for second violin I think is not playing
+Doge Chili I think so too... its either that or she is not using bow...
lol true i noticed that in the back she was so loss maybe she just started or something.
True
And it is 6th gread notes
0:57 lol that girl alone in the back is......., well let’s just say she made an effort to show up.

She wasn’t even playing
Bryce Susong ik lol
I’m a sophomore, and playing this in 6th grade was one of my favorite memories from orchestra class!

0:20 is hard to listen to because the 1sts are way out
Agree!

we played this today in my orchestra class just for fun
Also, at measure 26 before the Allegro moderato, they are supposed to take a rest
OMG YES!!
i played this song in my orchestra class
Wait when
The girl on the first row in the violin section on the outside is moving like crazy
ikr, she wildin
Everyone goes at their own pace...
This reminds me of an orchestra classroom to many violins and almost no cello basses or violas
Their bow usage is not good, and they are bowing on the bridge
also near the finger board
what a great peac of mucie thes song is I remember playing it in 7th grad
im in 7th grade and we are playing this right now. i play viola
Needs less 1st violins. They are overpowering. Throughout this whole piece everybody was rushing.
All the kids wanna play violin or viola even though they cost money to rent and cellos/basses are free. Our orchestra has 3 cellists and no bassists.
Also a lot of them were playing out of tune

the last chair in 2nd violin or 1st violin she was barely playing
That 4th finger E always got me when I was 12
Why so few Bass players?
My orchestra (school) has 14 total, in 3 different grades.
+GeekVasion My orchestra has no Bass players at all
dude that sucks, a well-rounded orchestra is beautiful.
adding to my previous post, there are none in 6th grade, 1 in 7th grade, and 2 in 8th grade.
my class only has one
This is a tiny ass orchestra ngl
I am in 6th grade and I am playing this song
i played this in 6th 😔 memories
A lot of bow direction problems. Messed up a lot.
why are yall critisizing a 9 year old video of 12 year olds playing
the fact I have to play this on the bass, with a German bow hurts my soul
I played this song in a performance in 6th grade
Everyone's being too critical, this is the beat cover of joust on youtube
thats a whole latta Violas!!!
Playing bass I remember the blisters in my fingers💀
Lemme pretend that girl in back is actually using her bow 😊
Everyone is talking about how fast they are going. Every class has their own tempo to the song...
Great job! There’s just some things that are easy fixes. Posture, there are some people that don’t even have their instrument under their jaw bone it’s at their chest, it’s just sitting there. Their playing over the fingerboard and their shoulders are moving the bow not the arm which causes that. The intonation should be worked on with some scales.
The bowing is way off..and someone is really out of tune...
Sounds great but don’t be afraid to use the full length of your bow!
Only one bass
They need to fix their position
Seeing the bow holds like 🙈
*LMFAO*
The girl in the back row thinks we can’t see her not playing😂
Pretty sad there’s only one bass... in my orchestra there’s only 4 cello players and no bass..... I know it’s sad 😂
1:31 someone coughs lol
