I love this last year our school’s symphonic band(middle school) played this at a festival and one of our school concerts. This is the only song I could remember haha. I love this song sm. I wish I have Auditioned in time to make it into symphonic last year. Now I’m in symphonic but it’s sad knowing I won’t be ever playing this song probably🥲
Were playing this song in Wind Ensemble (middle school 8th grade) band for our Christmas concert. and it's fire bro especially whenever trombones get the melody (lol I play trombone) I love this song so much credits to frank ticheli ❤
SAME! I'm playing it as a first year percussionist and I'm playing the bass drum. It's awesome but I have missed some notes during class and I have to work on my counting.
We played this for my Christmas Concert in 2010. It is perfect for that season when celebrating the Birth of Jesus Christ. I can just picture the angels celebrating in Heaven at the beginning of the song.
I remember freaking out playing this in 8th grade on 1st trumpet because no one could hit the high A except me so I was basically playing the part by myself. You just gotta work on it a lot. This song got me into practicing a lot and now I am the section leader of my high school band as a sophomore
at least its not choose joy by randall d standrige. i know it has a touching story but honest to god cannot stand that piece. and standridge is always just the most unfilling thing to listen to or play. ok standridge rant over
@idartsy9631 nah, I was in the same boat, don't worry. just make sure your eighths at the start are even since you're the only one playing them until clarinet 1 joins in (something the judge called me out on [I don't believe him])
Can’t believe people call this song boring bro it’s fire
REALLL
Who called it boring? This is song is so good.
On god
@@1234-g7g on gyat

This song is so fire I'm glad that my band class is playing this.

Nvm were downgraded to joy because clarinets and flute suck
We are playing this at 140 instead of 160 and it sounds so much worse😠
😠
It is at 152 not 160 but at the end it is 160
I completely forgot about this song! I played Tuba. It's a nice involved part.
My band is performing this for UIL

We played Cajun Folk Songs also by frank tucheli , I had 1st trumpet but his songs are really hard for middle schools

@@helengrugett which school? we are playing this too
@@skittle8441 homestead high
Jolly for what
Wow
Had to sight read this and it went pretty terribly
Good but 3rd trumpet is absolutely atrocious compared to everything

Your opinion is wrong.
Edit:(At least about choose joy I never heard the other)
@@brucejacoby6211 Standridge is the composer
@@ldbonq oops his other songs. I've only listen two two: choose joy and deus ex machina. So I don't have an opinion on the composer.
I think joy from frank ticheli sound good i played timpani
We had to play Imaginarium for a band festival and it was just the worst song ever-from the music itself to the badly formatted mess of a score/parts.
My band hates this song
Omg howwww it's so good
Bro can't play it probably
I can't wait to play it
This song easy as hell boy
@@AngelDiaz-vj8sn lies
Honestly this is one of his boring ones
Uh 🙄 no
Eating for more likes
Waiting
@@PatriciaMorrow-z1h ??? 😭 can’t have an opinion now
Maybe it's just the way my director made us rehearse it, but to me it wasn't that fun to play. I like the way it sounds though
This piece isn’t great and I’m not looking forward to playing it
these songs are the reason i love the alto 1 part
My band is playing this and I’m the only alto one SAVE ME 😭
