I love this piece so much, and the meaning that it has. I conducted this back in July 2023, and it was blast!! You're lucky that you got to perform it, and I hope you had fun! Good job! :)
I played this song and Fragile (also by Randall Standridge) last year for a concert and our spring trip. I loved playing these songs since during the time, I was at one of my lowest. Fragile felt relatable and Choose Joy was like telling me to never give up hope. I missed these songs so much that I just listen to them on a daily basis. Anyways you did amazing!!!
I am so glad you noticed that! It was extremely difficult to see the conductor at that time. So that was Kinda the only I could keep tempo. I’m glad you liked it!
during the school year i had a week to learn this song while also being in a ONLY percussion class i couldnt learn timing and all that YOUR VIDEO SAVED ME THANK YOU SO SO MUCH YOU SAVED MY LIFE I LOVE YOU RAHH 😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏
Amazing dude from the chimes part and your band I had the snare drum part for the this song but we didn’t have enough time to learn it for the spring concert lol
@MOOSICTHORY Crotales! I’ve always wanted to play on those. Sadly our band doesn’t have them. Good luck on your Concert and make sure to tell me how it goes!!!
Good Job (from one percussionist to another)! - Randall Standridge, composer "Choose Joy"
Oh my gosh this is amazing! Thank you so much!! :D
no way it’s Randy Standy!!! I’m a huge fan!
It's nice actually hear the chimes part, I know you can hear it clearly in the video but I like how it really sounds up close.
It’s very quiet in the original part, so yeah I like it too!

@@OfficialTopHatCharlie we played it in 7th grade and the flutes messed it up!!
@@TheSymphonium-CTYT Man that sucks. I’m sorry!
@@OfficialTopHatCharlie you’re fine, region band this year was a w tho. Got to play some more Randall Standridge songs too (Me & Gadget)
@@TheSymphonium-CTYT that’s awesome! Luck you.
So good warren!!!!🫶🏻🫶🏻
Thank you so much! :D
@@OfficialTopHatCharlie you’re so welcome!!!!
interesting I’ve never heard the chime part like this. choose joy is a great piece I wish i could play it lol
With enough practice you can play any kind of piece you want! This was a very fun part to play :D
@@OfficialTopHatCharlie I guess but like the whole band would have to practice that much too and it’s not happening :/
@@shulmpino5505 Well. How do you think we got good 😌
Nice job! this is gonna be super helpful to me, also good luck in future endeavors as a fellow animator and percusionist lol
I’m glad you think it’s helpful. And I really appreciate your support!
1k views. Amazing :D
It’s so fun to play even thought I got crash😭
If you think is hard, try playing the trumpet part. We are dying over here.
Give me like 3 years to learn trumpet and I’ll get back to you on that .__.
@@OfficialTopHatCharlie Ok, I'll be waiting
as a trumpet player who played this song, I agree
Glad we can all agree 😌
aughh me and bro gotta carry first part 💔💔
Lol
Good job man! As a trombonist though, 1:48 hurt me 💀
Lol. thanks man
Every single section in band suffers though. So, toughen up.
@@OfficialTopHatCharlieAs someone who plays sax as a secondary instrument, I respectfully disagree.
@@Axelantic I hate Saxophones!!! BLEH. But good for you :)
