I'm not affiliated with the school. Just a huge fan. You may want to call 480-813-0051 and follow the prompts to reach the orchestra teachers.

I do not know. Perhaps someone will see your post and reply.

His name is Carlos! He just graduated last year 😁

@@Ally_bo_bally Thanks for your help. It looks like someone is a fan of the song The Name Game by Shirley Ellis.

Wow! I will pass your kind words on to my nephew Joseph who was one of the violinists for this performance when he was in high school. He will be thrilled! The name of the soloist is Daniel Colwell. I've listened to this rendition countless times since I was given the CD as a gift over 20 years ago. I heard a rendition by a British orchestra on a classical music station here in Arizona yesterday and decided I needed to get it uploaded to my channel.

Well ok then.

real.👅

a lil too real

nah you GOTTA let gang know you fw this

Well, hang in there. Keep in mind this school has 5 groups and this is the top one.

Okay

Good to hear from a Sentinel!

@@jertunes22 Hurray! Mustangs and sentinels go together like peas and carrots. 🙂 A cactus and a cactus wren?

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Of course all I do is hold the camera and try not to go too crazy with too much of moving it around. I just got finished with uploading a total of 14 videos from the Friday night performance. All of them are excellent but the musicians in the symphony sound like they do it for a living. There are 4 videos for them including a fantastic Phantom of the Opera medley!

Thanks for taking the time to comment. I will pass this along to their teacher. These musicians are now in the Highland High Concert Orchestra and continuing to do a great job!

I will see if I can get an answer for you.

I will be posting a piece in the next day or two by the Campo Verde Symphonic Strings that I recorded last night that will knock your socks off! I might be exaggerating a little bit because it will be a John Williams piece for which they did a nice job but it's hard to top what they did on this piece and on the Night on Bald Mountain!

There was no link in your third comment so I removed it. I also removed your first comment because it was a band video. I have some band videos but I concentrate on orchestras here. The links in this comment are to some wonderful performances by the Japanese kids. The difference in practice time is obvious. But that deficit is largely made up by the time you are watching the symphonies and symphonic strings that I've posted here. A case in point would be Leroy Anderson's Christmas Festival performed by the Highland High Symphonic Strings in December of 2022. Here is a comment from the Leroy Anderson Foundation. @leroyandersonfoundation0447 @leroyandersonfoundation0447 1 year ago Wonderful performance. It is a joy to listen to this. These excellent musicians are playing at a professional level. Congratulations to everyone.

Estou feliz que você tenha gostado.

Thank you for your kind words! I will pass them along to the orchestra director.

It is the same piece of music, it's just that the Mario & Luigi version is played 5 times faster. (Just kidding). 🙂

Same! So are we, as well in May!

Well done!

You're welcome! Congratulations again to your son!

It is remarkable and enjoyable to see students of this age performing like much older musicians.

Thank you! Lots of hard work put into this performance! :)

I'm really glad you enjoyed it! Happy New Year!

They are fantastic! There is sheet music that is intended for school use and sheet music intended for professionals. They use the professional sheet music. And they do indeed sound like they do it for a living!

I'm really glad you enjoyed it! Year after year I continue to be amazed at what the Highland Junior High and High School musicians are able to do! Merry Christmas! P.S. I see that I have videos of the Symphonic Strings playing your uplifting piece, With Gratitude, two years ago in two different venues. They would have also played it at the Midwest Clinic. Also, I went back and looked at the program and there is your name. I don't know how I missed it but I got it corrected.

I hope listening to it here provided some comfort for you.

I will be uploading Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, Waltz of the Flowers, and Trepak. Unfortunately, something went wrong and I didn't get March of the Nutcracker recorded.

@@jertunes22 okay, thank you very much. that is a shame, but it’s good that you got the other three.

I was kind of mad at myself. It's a tiny little button and I must not have pushed it down all the way. I hope that's what it was anyway instead of a mechanical malfunction that might occur again. I actually uploaded this Hofeldt piece last night and then did about a two second edit on it this morning. I was wondering if you noticed what it was. @@leftpinkytoe8363

@@jertunes22 i didn’t, no. what was it?

A violinist dropped her bow at around the 3 minute and 16 second point. Now it's just a little blip in the video that's hard to notice. Do you know anyone who was able to record the March of the Nutcracker? They could transfer it to a flash drive and give it to Mrs. Payne. I could get it from her and upload it to my channel. @@leftpinkytoe8363
