I am a flute player and my band is playing this. Who ever inspired Michael Sweeney to compose this is the best person EVER. I just cannot not get enough of this song and neither can the rest of my band!
1st chair percussionist on this piece back in 2010 as a senior in HS. It was TOO much fun playing this as well as learning it. Im glad to see that there are others that enjoyed playing and learning this piece as much as I had, and for those who have yet to play it...you are in for a hell of a ride
I am currently practicing it to go perform at Disney but it is so easy in my opinion although I'm sure there are the little things that I mess up on that I don't noticw
Middle school band.... This song brings back so many memories... I wasn't the best player in my band. I was always the slop of the crop, and you know what? That's what made my Middle school years more memorable. I had more of an adventure being at the bottom than I ever had being at the top and now that middle school is over, I regret that I didn't take more pride than I did. Bells/Xylophone 4 lyfe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I play clarinet and i remember playing this in the 7th grade. I loved it so much! It was pretty easy (well for the clarinet at least), but i had enjoyed it!
I'm playing Clarinet, and I'm in the 8th grade. We are playing this song for a competition coming up in April! We are sounding pretty awesome! Its such an amazing song!
If I understand what you were saying, I was third chair clarinet. If not, I was B flat clarinet 3. This and Hooroosh! by Ralph Ford were my favorite songs from music class in secondary school (I believe it's grade 7 to 11 in the rest of North America).
I absolutely LOVE this piece. When we listened to a recording of us playing, me and my friends couldn't resist bouncing up and down opposite of each other in rhythm of the music ;3
I'm in 7th grade wind ensemble and jazz band at corner lake middle school. I'm currently playing this song and play snare drum on this song. I love the buzz roll parts.
This was my favorite song to play in high school band. It reminds me of a messenger delivering an urgent message to a king in the middle of the night. Fairytale
My band might play this when we go to Orlando next semester, I asked my band director for the music (he has a lot of music) so I've been playing along with this. I hope I get the trumpet solo if we play it!
I remember this was the first song i played in honors band in the 7th grade. And being one of 5 trumpets in the school i got to play the solo, which was the scariest thing i've ever done at the time lol
I am a French horn player so let me explain, in the song most of the clarinets at my school have part 3 but like the first 3 chairs have part 2 with trumpets and all of the French horns have part 3 with the clarinets so we play everything they play
I've been begging my band director to let us play this for years ever since I got to play it in an honors band, and he still hasn't gotten the sheet music for it. DARN IT MAN >:U
