[@jadediaz6590]

my high school is having a hard time with this so called grade 3 piece haha

[@loudhostage7427]

Jade Diaz same

[@mariebcfhs9491]

the imperial march in this version is great

[@victorvillatoro7241]

I guess. But the original is monumentally better

[@cjellis1019]

Grade 3? Yea ok.

[@DeMoNiC_pEpPa_PiG]

At least grade 4.5

[@shannasubing1833]

i saw the sheet at first and freaked out 💀

[@BobTheKiller]

Definitely 4.5

[@KM-pd5od]

It’s really not that bad, except for a few of the quarter note runs. But after doing them several times you get muscle memory and it’s fine. Not that bad.

[@peabodysherman6867]

​@@KM-pd5od what 8nstument do you play because all I see the whole piece is 8th 16th and 32nd notes

[@nathalitorres5421]

we’re playing this for our spring concert, and tbh we sound really good

[@pidgeonshidgeon]

bro... i was aux on this and i was JUGGLING all the instruments. i had crash cymbal, suspended cymbal, brake drum, mallet percussion, tam tam if it's in this piece?.. it was a lot of really fast switches, but it was fun!! rlly complicated setup though, lol.

[@holdenlouie2905]

I get what you mean. For one song I was probably playing over 10 instruments, switching simultaneously, but man it's such an exhilarating feeling.

[@youngmathematician9154]

I'm the auxiliary percussionist and I have to deal with tambourine, suspended cymbal, crash cymbal, claves, castanets, triangle, sleigh bells and temple blocks split between three songs. My setup is… cumbersome.

[@Sonicfan-cc1te]

I’m playing 1st trombone for this in day band at school and how is this a grade 3 piece when there is a fricking high B flat in the 1st trombone part?!

[@DeMoNiC_pEpPa_PiG]

i never even noticed that… foul

[@BHB7162]

lol

[@BHB7162]

I also played first trombone for this part so I feel you!

[@hadesbutmortal]

Trying to play the Imperial March on bass guitar is damn near impossible

This is like at least a grade 4

[@box3229]

Or 3 1/2 grade 4 is much harder

[@gingerstover3257]

@@box3229 if Cumberland cross is a 4 I think this sets the standard

[@box3229]

Seeing this now I think it should be a grade 4 or at the most a 5

[@ImNotOdd]

rip 1st clarinet

[@aidanrutledge4262]

I played it in 8th grade its not that bad

[@karvz1]

Aidan Rutledge what year did you start band though

[@martakalmar7661]

@@karvz1 dunno. I'm hoping not

[@eviehozackjames2770]

I'm a grade 4 flute and this piece has to be a grade 5 in concert band grading

[@loudhostage7427]

fricken saxophones have to play that swing ugh

[@Marwarluigi]

This is a grade 3?!

[@beerzerker8359]

It's a pretty challenging Grade 3 piece, especially those Clarinet and Alto Sax runs in the beginning.

[@mariahmcdaddy7432]

a good middle school could play it

[@thomaszhang5437]

trumpet first is pretty hard

[@mariahmcdaddy7432]

@@thomaszhang5437 im 1st trumpet in symphonic its not that hard tbh lol , you can look up ivcms symphonic band , we played it

So, no Flag Parade?

[@lauriewhite8153]

If you play Baritone Sax, bring a book or something

[@Josh501st]

All of you talking about grade 3 I think that means actually the 8th grade band because it’s year 3 of middle school (possibly idk) makes more sense that way
